The finish to WWE’s Hell In A Cell main event between Seth Rollins and The Fiend left many fans incredibly frustrated, but more details have been revealed about the booking decision.

While most fans presumed that the finish to the match was a disqualification to Seth Rollins, in actual fact, it was meant to be a referee stoppage after Rollins hit The Fiend on the head with a sledgehammer while he was covered in weapons.

According to a report by PWInsider.com, the backstage plan was for the finish to be at the referee’s decision, not a disqualification to the Universal Champion, although that didn’t come across very well on the night. WWE even put out a detailed message on its website about the finish of the match:

“Clearly sensing that a line was about to be crossed, the referee tried to stop Rollins from using the hammer. But The Beastslayer did it anyway, bringing the tool straight down on the whole pile, causing the ref to wave off the match while a crew of medics tended to Wyatt. Rollins, who was clearly on the verge of madness, made the mistake of straddling his fallen foe and quickly found himself ensnared in the Mandible Claw as Wyatt rose up from his back and continued his attack.

Rollins was helpless to respond as Wyatt took him outside the ring, exposing the arena floor by tearing up the mat. It became clear that the Universal Championship was the last thing on Wyatt’s mind. Wyatt smashed Rollins face-first into the arena floor with Sister Abigail and applied the Mandible Claw once again. This time, the writhing Rollins was spared only by the signature shrieks that precede Wyatt’s exit. Hell in a Cell did not end with “The Fiend” Bray Wyatt as Universal Champion. But clearly, he’d gotten what he came for all the same.”

Either way, the decision has backfired on WWE and resulted in huge boos and chants of “AEW” to close out the PPV.
