Following Cena and Punk’s win over team ‘Awesome Truth’, Triple H came out and fired both men from WWE.

The Miz and R-Truth return

The 2011 Hell in a Cell pay-per-view main event was a triple threat match between John Cena, CM Punk, and Alberto Del Rio. Cena was locked outside and when the cage was lifted for him to enter, two other hooded figures entered as well. They were R-Truth and The Miz, who ran inside and attacked everyone in sight. The cage was lowered again.

As soon as the assault began, Triple H came into the scene and tried to open the cage’s door. Soon, the whole locker room was out there trying to do the same. Unfortunately, the key to the chain lock was inside the cell.

Luckily, the security and policemen could control the situation.
