The storyline reason for this move is that Rey Mysterio can no longer wait till Sunday to have this match and wants it as soon as possible. Reigns responded with any day works for him and the match taking place on Friday or Sunday makes no difference to him.
It’s eating me up inside. I can’t wait any longer. I want the Hell In A Cell match tomorrow night. @WWERomanReigns @HeymanHustle

Makes no difference to me.It'll be my pleasure to disgrace what's left of your family name tomorrow night inside Hell in a Cell!

With this match now taking place tomorrow night on Smackdown, this will be the biggest match we have seen on Smackdown in a very long time. It is also not known if this was always the plan for this match or if something happened behind the scenes to move the match up two days.
If we do hear anything else on this match taking place on Smackdown, we will have it here and on the PWUnlimited YouTube Channel.
