WWE Hell In A Cell 2022 Review - CODY RHODES WRESTLES WITH A COMPLETELY TORN PEC
Solomonster reviews WWE Hell in a Cell 2022 from Chicago with Cody Rhodes turning in a gutsy, yet also very stupid performance inside Hell in a Cell with a completely torn pectoral muscle. He and Seth Rollins turned out an excellent match under the circumstances, as did the ladies who killed it in their Triple Threat Match for the Raw Women's Championship. This was not a show with a very inspired build, but it ended up being a good effort overall with no real surprises.Follow Solomonster on Twitter:http://www.twitter.com/solomonsterSubscribe to the Solomonster Sounds Off on YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/user/TheSolomonster?sub_confirmation=1Become a Solomonster Sounds Off Channel Member:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC9jcg7mk93fGNqWPMfl_Aig/join
