Roman Reigns defended the Universal Championship against Rey Mysterio inside a Hell in a Cell during last night's episode of SmackDown, and the match definitely didn't disappoint. 

During the show, we learned that Sami Zayn vs. Kevin Owens will replace the match on Sunday (Reigns will no longer be wrestling during Hell in a Cell), while SmackDown Women's Champion Bianca Belair will now defend her title against Bayley in a Hell in a Cell match. 

While Mysterio initially managed to dominate Reigns thanks to some weapons he brought inside the Cell with him, the Head of the Table soon took charge, even powerbombing the Master of the 619 out of the ring and into the side of the cage. Ultimately, he'd make Mysterio tap out to the guillotine choke, further cementing himself as the top star in WWE...and the most dominant. 

After the match, Jimmy Uso hit the ring and finally acknowledged Reigns by raising his arm in the air. With that, The Big Dog's heel faction is complete, and he'd again lock in that guillotine choke on Mysterio before wishing him a "Happy Father's Day."
