It was previously announced that Rey Mysterio would be taking on Roman Reigns for the Universal Championship inside Hell In A Cell at the Hell In Cell pay-per-view on June 20th. Following an exchange of words between the two on social media, Reigns and Mysterio’s Hell In A Cell match is now taking place on the 6/18 episode of SmackDown.

Mysterio tweeted that he wants Reigns on SmackDown instead of waiting for Sunday and Reigns agreed.

Mysterio challenged Reigns to a Hell In A Cell match after Reigns took out Dominik Mysterio several weeks ago. Reigns’ involvement with the Mysterios came about when Jimmy and Jey Uso were taking on Dominik and Rey for the SmackDown Tag Team Titles.

Also scheduled for tomorrow’s SmackDown is Kevin Owens teaming with Big E to take on Commander Azeez and Intercontinental Champion Apollo Crews. Otis is going one-on-one with Angelo Dawkins along with Shinsuke Nakamura and King Corbin continuing their feud over Corbin’s crown.
