Brock Lesnar Vs. The Undertaker At Hell In A Cell 2015: Final Preview

Brock Lesnar defeated The Undertaker at Wrestlemania last year. Time went on without any further altercation between the two. Lesnar went on to win the WWE Championship. The Undertaker came back at Wrestlemania this year to defeat Bray Wyatt. Next thing you know, The Undertaker comes back again to screw Brock Lesnar out of regaining the WWE Championship. This leads to a Summerslam match, which had a horrible finish. You just knew it wasn't over yet.

It will end at Hell in a Cell. These two will go at it inside Hell in a Cell. These two went at it in this type of match before. That was over a decade ago. Match quality will probably be poor, but there are other Hell in a Cell matches on the card that are sure to be much better. The best you can hope for in this match is that Taker does not suffer any major injury. 

Speaking of Taker, he looked bad at Summerslam. He won the match, but it looked so cheap. It is probably a good thing that the horrible finish has not been brought up more. Has the WWE really done enough to make The Undertaker look better since August? He hasn't really been around much. Lesnar has been around more. Both were there on Raw this week. Taker gave pretty much the typical promo you would expect from him. No low blows? Probably saving it for this Sunday.

And Lesnar? One thing fans have said is that he looked like the face in this feud and Taker looked like the heel. Lesnar definitely has played a face role more often in recent months, but how about Raw? He backed away from having a physical confrontation with The Undertaker. You can say Heyman talked him out of it, but Lesnar had no problem going back to take out Big Show on Raw a few weeks ago. Lesnar backing down like that is something he has only really done as a heel. A shift back to making Taker look strong? Once again, I would still say this is a feud where you should toss face/heel discussions out the window. It is just two big names going at it.

Who wins? This match won't give Undertaker back his streak. He doesn't have much time left. Does he really need the win? After the cheap finish at Summerslam, the likely outcome would be Lesnar getting the win. They have protected him very well. I cannot imagine them having him lose again to The Undertaker. If he does, it will have to be another screwy finish or a big spot during the match. But seeing as how Lesnar is like a part-time centerpiece now, I will say he wins.
