And then the main event: Cena vs. The Miz in an "I quit" match. This match is now referred to as "The Passion of the Cena". For several weeks the Miz hyped up that he had a strategy that no one had ever thought of before that would guarantee that he would win. That strategy ended up being having Alex Riley coming out to help him beat up Cena. That's it. The match went on forever, with Cena being beaten and tied up, but always NEVER GIVING UP. Then Cena did his typical magically no selling and beating both guys with about 10 seconds of offense.

"Passion of the Cena" was Orton/Cena I Quit, and I think Miz's special strategy was to use a tape recorder with Cena saying "I Quit" on it, which worked until Riley dropped it right in front of the ref.

It was still a really bad match though.

Daniel Bryan/Randy Orton Hell in a Cell 2013 is WWE's version of Storm/Roode Lockdown 2012 in TNA, where the screwy finish is ok if and only if the babyface ultimately gets his win on a bigger stage.

...Yes, I am a very bitter James Storm fan.

Also Michaels was the guest referee and instead of reacting to the blatant HHH interference and calling the DQ right then, or even calling the DQ after he superkicks Bryan, he gives Orton the three count (did he even help drag Orton onto Bryan? I don't remember) and calls it a win. There's no way to view it as anything but a screwjob at that point.

I agree, WWE should have gone full-WCW and ended a No DQ match in a DQ.
