Top WWE star teases Hell in a Cell match at Bad Blood

WWE booked the first Hell in a Cell match at Badd Blood: In Your House in 1997, pitting The Undertaker and Shawn Michaels against one another. The main event contest was also notable for the debut of Kane.

It was brought back two more times by WWE, in 2003 and 2004. Both of these shows featured Hell in a Cell match. After 20 years, the Bad Blood event will return on October 5, and Rhea Ripley believes her deeply personal rivalry with Liv Morgan warrants this stipulation.

While nothing has been made official by WWE as of this writing, the company would likely want to book another Hell in a Cell match on the show as part of its tradition.

Speaking to Haley Miller of Comic Book ahead of her Women's World Championship contest against Liv Morgan at SummerSlam, Rhea Ripley expressed interest in the idea. However, she also added that it can only happen if Morgan survives her tonight inside Cleveland Browns Stadium:

"I would love that," Ripley said regarding a Hell in a Cell match at Bad Blood. "I think if we would have had a match at Bad Blood, it would have to be me and Liv Morgan. That is if she survives SummerSlam. She can't run this time because it's an actual match," she added. [From 02:01 to 02:26]

Ripley's SummerSlam match marks her first since WrestleMania XL, where she retained the Women's World Championship against Becky Lynch. Interestingly, The Judgment Day star has not been pinned in WWE for over 730 days.

Rhea Ripley addresses her betrayal of Liv Morgan long before their WWE rivalry

In early 2022, Rhea Ripley and Liv Morgan formed a tag team, even wrestling at WrestleMania 38 together. However, a month later, Ripley joined The Judgment Day. Issues between the two women really began in the summer of 2023 when The Eradicator injured Morgan.

In an exclusive interview for Sportskeeda's WrestleBinge, Rhea Ripley was asked why she turned on the current Women's World Champion in the first place. She claimed that there were already frictions between the two and it was only a matter of who made the first move:

"So I trusted her [Liv Morgan], until I started feeling like something bad was going to happen. I have been backstabbed by multiple partners prior to this, and I mean she has too. So we were both broken in the same ways and it was only about time that one of us were turning on the other," Ripley said.

Ahead of SummerSlam, Rhea Ripley and Dominik Mysterio made up after the latter rejected Liv Morgan on RAW. However, could Ripley's emphasis on getting backstabbed repeatedly be a foreshadowing of things to come?
