Braun Strowman's next Universal Championship opportunity came at Hell in a Cell 2018. 'The Monster Among Men' won the Money in the Bank Briefcase and cashed his title opportunity in advance, against then champion Roman Reigns.

Strowman had previously tried to cash in his briefcase at SummerSlam and although he failed to do so, his distraction allowed Roman Reigns the chance to beat Brock Lesnar for the Universal Championship. Strowman then tried to cash in against Reigns the following night on RAW but was stopped by a reunited Shield.

As a result, Strowman declared he'd be facing Roman Reigns in a Hell in a Cell match at Hell in a Cell, so that The Shield couldn't interfere. Mick Foley was later named as the special guest referee.

Strowman was one-on-one with a smaller opponent inside the Hell in a Cell structure. Surely the 'The Monster Among Men,' the man who can tip trucks over with his bare hands, would win the title?

Despite not being in the match, Brock Lesnar found a way to thwart Strowman for the fourth time. 'The Beast' ran down to the ring, kicked the door off of the Hell in a Cell structure, and laid out both Reigns and Strowman, leading to a no contest.
