Live Hell in a Cell Pre-Show

The special live stream pre-show kicked off at 7:30PM EST on YouTube. Matt Striker and Scott Stanford were at the commentary table in the Philips Arena in Atlanta, Georgia. They immediately hyped up the main event with plenty of questions to be answered about "respect." Stanford fed to a video of Raw highlights regarding the AJ Lee scandal with her resigning due to allegations she fraternized with a superstar on the Raw roster.

Striker fed to Michael Cole in the ring who introduced John Cena to come out and talk about the AJ scandal. Cena was met with a mix of cheers and boos as he rushed to the ring with 23 minutes until the Pay-Per-View. Cena sat in a folding chair next to Cole for the interview, as Cole talked about Vickie claiming she has proof of the affair that she'll bring to Raw tomorrow night. Cole brought up tweet and tout questions. One of which was "are you passing the torch to Ryback?" Cena said Ryback is a monster and he wants to see what he's doing in the cell tonight. Another asked Cena to give Ryback advice for going into the Hell in a Cell match against Punk. Cena talked about Punk claiming he's the best in the world. Cena told Ryback that brute strength tonight alone won't get it done. Cena said if anyone can expose a weakness it's CM Punk. Another question asked Cena if he can beat Ryback in Hell in a Cell. Cena polled the crowd and got a mixed reaction, then said if Ryback becomes new WWE champion, he wants to be the first to challenge for the title.

Cena received a Tout from Dolph Ziggler who had some insulting remarks, saying he's the only real man left. Cena threw the chairs out of the ring then told Ziggler to come out and prove he's real, because he'll fight right now. Ziggler's music hit but Vickie Guerrero came walking out with a loud "Excuse Me!" Vickie got into the ring and distracted Cena talking about the scandal, which allowed Dolph Ziggler to sneak up from behind and try to attack. Cena ducked the attack and put him up in the Attitude Adjustment, but Dolph escaped. Cena knocked him out of the ring to the ramp, with Vickie going out to comfort her wrestler.
