Once again the Universal Championship will be contested over by two members of the same family. Roman Reigns and Jey Uso will be continuing their feud and this time they will be doing so inside Hell in a Cell. However, this won't be an ordinary cell match, because it will also be an I Quit match as well.

Adding even more intensity to this match, there is no doubt going to be a lot of personal issues boiling down as the two men try to become Universal Champion. But after one great match under their belts, who should walk away with the title this time around?

10 Jey Uso: Stipulation Suits Him

While the Hell in a Cell side of things really can go either way, the fact is that traditionally babyfaces do quite well in I Quit matches. It is rare that a babyface actually utters those words, as this is the moment they strike revenge on the top heel.

Because that stipulation has now been added to the match, there is a stronger chance of Jey Uso actually walking away the winner. Getting his revenge for how Roman Reigns has treated him makes perfect sense in the story, which could be his big moment.

9 Roman Reigns: New Challengers To Face

Roman Reigns has done great work with Jey Uso, but there are tons of other names that he is capable of working a great story with. SmackDown has just had an influx of new stars join the roster and the likes of Kevin Owens, Rey Mysterio, and Aleister Black are all now potential feuds.

Roman needs to retain here in order to go and work with these other big names to put down what could be the most important title run of his entire career.

8 Jey Uso: Continue The Storyline

This current storyline between Roman Reigns and Jey Uso has been absolutely excellent and it would be great to see that continue a little longer. However, the only way that happens is if Jey Uso wins at Hell in a Cell.

If Roman wins again, then a third match would make very little sense, but Jey winning would likely lead to Roman wanting a rematch. Even if Jey only held the title for a few weeks, it could really develop the storyline and add another level of anger to Roman.

7 Roman Reigns: It's Only His First Feud As Tribal Chief

While sometimes champions do drop their titles during their very first feud, it is very rare. Right now, this storyline is still the first title defense that Roman Reigns has had in 2020, and having him lose the title during that would be a big mistake.

WWE is finally striking the right notes with Roman, getting him over and making fans want to see him. Therefore, to stop that right in its tracks for what would be a really risky project with a tag team specialist would be a brave move.

6 Jey Uso: Create A New Singles Star

Jey Uso is a popular member of the WWE roster due to his amazing work alongside his brother throughout his career. But lately, he has been doing a very good job as a singles wrestler, far surpassing any expectations people had of him.

Because he has been so impressive, WWE has given itself an unexpected opportunity to create a brand new top singles star. While it's not something anyone thought would happen, right now WWE could make Jey Uso a legitimate singles talent with this big victory.

5 Roman Reigns: Start The New Era

WWE has just had its annual WWE Draft and the company is promoting new seasons of both SmackDown and Raw. If WWE truly wants to make the blue brand seem like a must-see show, then Roman Reigns as the top star is the right way to go.

The Tribal Chief is the perfect Universal Champion to lead this new era of the blue brand, and that's exactly what should happen. He can have a lengthy run as the champion to really make SmackDown a compelling show to watch, which is the type of pull Jey Uso just doesn't have yet.

4 Jey Uso: Surprising

When it comes to this match, there's no doubt that Roman Reigns is the clear favorite. He's the Tribal Chief who has been the top man in WWE for years, and Jey Uso is traditionally a tag team specialist, therefore he's not given much chance.

Therefore if Jey is able to pull off a victory, it would be a massive surprise and one that would certainly be intriguing. It could create great storylines, but as far as the PPV itself, it would be a hugely surprising moment that could be a lot of fun for the fans.

3 Roman Reigns: Not The Right Time To Lose

Put simply, now is the wrong time to have Roman Reigns drop the Universal Championship. He's only just come back, aligned himself with Paul Heyman and established a dominant character that should be feared by others.

Taking the title away from him at this stage would only derail that momentum. WWE doesn't need to make quick title switches just for the sake of enhancing storylines, and Jey Uso has already been boosted massively by simply being involved.

2 Jey Uso: It's His Only Chance

Being realistic, this is probably the only time that Jey Uso will be in the Universal Championship picture. When his brother is back, Jey will slip into the tag team division again, therefore this is his moment and his time to shine.

With Jimmy still out of action, now is the perfect time to back Jey. The fans are behind him and the fantastic story that is being told. Because of that, this would be a great time for WWE to experiment and give him a shot at being the champion.

1 Roman Reigns: Build His Heel Character

Roman Reigns has been doing an amazing job with his new persona, and he is quickly becoming the strongest part of WWE's weekly programming. While beating Jey Uso before helped establish him as a heel, this match would take it to new levels.

Because the battle is an I Quit match, Roman is going to have to hit new levels of aggression to get the victory. Seeing him beatdown his own flesh and blood to try and win the match will just make fans hate him even more, which will only create an even better character.
