why WWE announced that The Undertaker would be facing Brock Lesnar at next month's Hell in a Cell event

As seen at Night of Champions Sunday night, WWE announced that The Undertaker would be facing Brock Lesnar at next month's Hell in a Cell event.
Bryan Alvarez mentioned on today's installment of Wrestling Observer Live that WWE changed several plans for next month's WrestleMania event about three weeks ago. One of those changes was the decision to move up Brock vs. Taker part III to next month's pay-per-view event, instead of having it at WrestleMania.

Alvarez added that the company feels that don't need a strong main event for Hell in a Cell with Brock and Taker on the card, so they are moving forward with Seth Rollins vs. Kane for the event. 


Though the record books consider The Undertaker — one of the most decorated Superstars in WWE history — the official victor, Lesnar’s advocate, Paul Heyman argues The Beast Incarnate was cheated out of his rightful win.

Oct. 25 will not be the first time The Undertaker and Lesnar have dueled inside the dreaded Hell in a Cell. In October 2002, then-WWE World Heavyweight Champion Lesnar overcame The Undertaker in a fiery battle inside the dangerous warzone.

With an incensed Lesnar bent on destroying The Phenom, will the result be the same at this year’s WWE Hell in a Cell? Or will The Undertaker erase the controversy of SummerSlam with a resounding win against the only athlete in history to have held the WWE World Heavyweight, UFC Heavyweight and NCAA national heavyweight championships?

Watch the historic conclusion to Brock Lesnar's "Go to Hell” tour when The Undertaker and Lesnar tie up inside Hell in a Cell, live Sunday, Oct. 25, only on the award-winning WWE Network.
