PERFECT: Edge defeated Seth Rollins in one of the best Hell in a Cell matches in history by hitting the Curb Stomp, Rollins’ own finisher, onto a chair. This match had multiple memorable spots including Rollins performing a perfectly executed sunset power bomb and a very creative table spot, where he bounced off the cell through a table. There were callbacks to their previous matches like the superkicks Rollins performed in their Smackdown match. The rivalry has arguably been the best in wrestling this year, and this match was a perfect way to end the rivlary.
Result – Edge Wins by Pinfall

Overall, this was BY FAR the best Saudi show in WWE history. This show had 4 awesome matches and the middle of the show was very easy. to watch too, as nothing was less than average. The two world title matches showed how great all four men are at professional wrestling and the Smackdown Women’s Championship match was so fun to watch. The opening match is one of, if not, the best WWE matches of the year.
