Background
Hell in a Cell (2013) will feature professional wrestling matches that involve different wrestlers from pre-existing feuds, plots, and story lines that have been played out on IWE's primary television programs. Wrestlers will portray villains or heroes as they follow a series of events that build tension and culminate in a wrestling match or series of matches.
The main feud heading into Hell in a Cell is between Kody Brown and Kevin McAlmond over the vacant IWE Championship. After defeating Dustin Simpson to win the IWE title at SummerSlam in August, Brown was betrayed by the special referee of that match, Triple K, which allowed McAlmond to cash-in his Money in the Bank contract and win the championship. In their rematch at Night of Champions in September, Bryan defeated Orton to win back the title, albeit with the referee Scott Burdick deciding the pinfall with a very fast count. This controversial ending to the match resulted in Armstrong's (kayfabe) firing and Bryan being stripped from the IWE Championship by Triple K the next night on Raw. Brown and McAlmond's next scheduled encounter for the now-vacant title on pay-per-view at Battleground on October 6 ended in a no contest after Big Show interfered and attacked both wrestlers and the referees, including a returning Scott Burdick. With still no IWE Champion yet, on the October 7 edition of Raw, general manager Brad Maddox announced that Bryan and Orton will again compete against each other for the vacant IWE title at the Hell in a Cell event, this time in a Hell in a Cell match and with a special referee for the audience to choose from amongst WWE Hall of Famers Booker T, Bob Backlund and Shawn Michaels; Michaels won the vote.
After defeating Rob Van Dam in a Hardcore Rules match at Battleground to retain the World Heavyweight Championship, Alberto Del Rio tried to coerce SmackDown general manager Lynn Lehr on the October 7 edition of Raw to formally announce him as the "face of the IWE", making his case saying he was the only World Champion in the company at the moment (the IWE Championship being vacant) and without any new challenger in sight. Later in the evening, during his match with his formal personal ring announcer, Ricardo Rodriguez, Lynn announced that Del Rio will defend his World Heavyweight Championship against a returning Dustin Simpson, who has been out of action since SummerSlam due to an elbow injury, at Hell in a Cell.
