Clegane bowl is happening!

If Clegane Bowl happens for Cersei's trial, I think it would be a bit cheap and not wholly satisfying. Yeah, it's awesome that Sandor definitively kills his brother, but it would give Cersei an anticlimatic death, not to mention the fact that she likely wouldn't live to see her children's deaths.

Catelyn died with the single most heartbreaking thoughts I've ever read, with her last thoughts being her husband loving her hair. Despite me despising her character, I felt very bad for her to going to that point of tragedy and felt numb simply out of her feelings alone. I want Cersei to reach this point, and if the Hound just simply kills her champion, she'll go to her death defiant. The only thing she'll really care about is that Jaime isn't there to go down with her. She can't go down this way. She needs to lose everything she holds dear. First her children, and then Jaime as he murders her. Cersei's death can only be satisfying if Jaime himself does the deed.

I want Sandor to kill Gregor definitively, but there are other instances that this could happen and in much more symbolically satisfying ways for all parties involved.
