This year’s WWE Hell in a Cell pay-per-view is scheduled for Sunday, September 16th from San Antonio, Texas at the AT&T Center and follows SummerSlam, which is arguably WWE’s second biggest event of the year.
The official Twitter account of the AT&T Center announced on Tuesday night (August 7, 2018) that Jeff Hardy would battle Randy Orton at this upcoming show while hyping that tickets are on sale now.

Of course, fans should always remember “card subject to change” – especially in cases like this, when the event is still a month away. If you recall, Shinsuke Nakamura beat Hardy to win the United States Title at the WWE Extreme Rules pay-per-view event in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania at the PPG Paints Arena on the WWE Network.
Following the match, Orton made his return after being on the sidelines due to a recent surgery to have an intense staredown with Nakamura and then laying out Hardy. During a recent episode of SmackDown Live on the USA Network, the company booked a rematch between Hardy and Nakamura that saw the finish once again have Orton cost Hardy the match. Then, Orton attacked Hardy once again in devastating fashion.
Hardy is slated to challenge Nakamura for the United States Title at the upcoming SummerSlam pay-per-view event later this month.
