2019 - Becky Lynch vs Sasha Banks - Hell in A Cell
Kofi Kingston vs Daniel Bryan had all the emotional build up from weeks of KofiMania, and it came so close to being my pick for this year- as did any of the fantastic series of matches between Johnny Gargano and Adam Cole. However, I've plucked for a match that surpassed expectations to become a top drawer contest.
Hell In A Cell 2019 will be remembered by many for the farcical finish to the main event match between Seth Rollins vs The Fiend. What many forget though is that night kicked off with a top-tier Women's Championship match within the confides of Hell in A Cell.

The night after Summerslam, Sasha Banks returned to TV after being away seen since WrestleMania. Immediately, she set her sights on Becky Lynch and the RAW Women's Championship.
After the first match between the two ended in a DQ finish, 'The Man' and 'The Boss' were all set to end their rivalry here at Hell in A Cell.
The use of this type of match on a stand-alone PPV isn't something many fans like, as it takes away from what the Cell was originally used for. However, these two ladies made great use of their surroundings to carve out a great match. I particularly enjoyed how Becky Lynch used the cell to prop up a chair to assist in her attack on Banks.
It's a shock choice and a bit of a sleeper hit compared to most of what we saw in 2019. But it was the bout I enjoyed most, and the one where my investment only grew as the match went on.
