Monday Night Raw Preview 10/13/14: John Cena and Dean Ambrose Head Toward Hell in a Cell

The October 13, 2014 edition of WWE's Monday Night Raw will emanate live from the Philips Arena in Atlanta at 8 p.m. Eastern and will continue to build toward the Hell in a Cell pay-per-view on Sunday, October 26.

Last week on Raw from the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, Dean Ambrose returned from Coney Island during the main event of the show with a hot dog cart to attack Seth Rollins, Randy Orton and Kane. He blasted Orton and Kane with ketchup and mustard and took a pair of tongs to Rollins' testicles. Triple H and Stephanie McMahon then came out to book a match at Hell in a Cell between Ambrose and John Cena. The winner of that match will face Rollins inside the cell in the main event. Ambrose struck first by planting Cena with a double-arm DDT. We then learned during Miz TV on the 15^th anniversary of Friday Night SmackDown last week that the match would be a "Contract on a Pole" match. Cen fired back with an Attitude Adjustment to Ambrose to close the show.

How will Ambrose, Cena and Rollins interact tonight? Will the Lunatic Fringe and the Leader of the Cenation continue to try to get the upper hand on each other, or will they keep their focus on Seth Rollins as they each try to get their revenge on him? If they do attack each other, will Rollins take advantage of the confusion to assault them both with Orton and Kane at his side? And how will the Viper and the Director of Operations stay involved in this feud?

The Rock returned last week to the surprise of everyone in the Barclays Center and the viewing public at home to confront Rusev and Lana. It seems as though this was a one-off appearance, as Rusev and Lana are back to focusing on The Big Show and calling him out for ripping down the Russian flag two weeks ago. It's likely the two huge athletes are headed for a showdown at Hell in a Cell, so how will the Big Show respond to their challenge tonight?

Dolph Ziggler remains Intercontinental Champion, and it seems as though Cesaro is next in line for a title shot at the pay-per-view. The two already had a title match on SmackDown recently, and WWE has done little to build the matches on the Hell in a Cell card, but it would only make sense to book Ziggler against the Swiss Superman. We should get more focus on the undercard matches tonight, as we only have two weeks until Hell in a Cell, so expect some contests to get booked tonight on Raw.

AJ Lee and Paige continue their war over the Divas Championship, and the British beauty has now brought Alicia Fox into the mix. Will the two have yet another contest for the title at Hell in a Cell? Or will WWE continue to extend this feud beyond the pay-per-view.

In other Divas news, Brie Bella and Nikki Bella continue their sibling rivalry, though they have yet to have an actual match. Rumors still hold that the two could lock up inside the cell at the pay-per-view, which would be the first match of its kind for the female wrestlers in WWE. Paige and AJ would be better candidates for this match given the former's hardcore wrestling background and the "crazy" nature of their feud, but the Bellas in the cell would certainly be an interesting spectacle. Perhaps we'll get more development on this front tonight.
