It all started when stipulation became a PPV, HIAC was only meant to end feuds that were so high that the cell was the right place to finish the story. Glad that feeling is back with CM Punk and Drew McIntyre at Bad Blood
Agreed. Sure they were some good HIAC matches in the HIAC PPV, but Hell in a Cell were meant to end blood feuds. It was like the final chapter to the rivalry. I'm happy they brought back that concept last year with Edge vs Finn Balor & now Punk vs Drew.
It’s funny you say that since the first hell in a cell had interference from kane and did not end the hbk and taker feud. And the second hell in a cell or 3rd didn’t do that either
Yes, my G! Hell in a Cell should be one of the two last ditch efforts to squash a beef that’s gotten so bad, you knew the guys involved would end up killing themselves with others as collateral.
I feel like Roman, along with the rest of the Bloodline(The new Bloodline vs the OG Bloodline) are going to be used for War Games. And at one point recently, I thought of Cody maybe joining OG Bloodline team just for one night at Survivor Series. I see those two for Wargames this year, not so much Hell in a Cell.
Hell in a Cell from 1997-2008 truly was the definition of pure mayhem. All those matches with lots of punishing moments, crazy spots, insane lore with the match itself, etc., it was all great stuff. I’m so happy HHH is bringing back that special feeling with Drew & Punk, as that feud definitely deserves the cell.
They should’ve had another Armageddon HIAC in 04. JBL defending the WWE title against Eddie, Taker, Cena (Jesùs and Carlito match could’ve took place on the Smackdown after Survivor Series), Booker T and RVD.
Holy shit what an idea, that was a huge missed opportunity. Already had a 4 way anyway. They could have even done one in ‘06 at Armageddon Just throw every match into one lol, Batista, Taker, Kane, MVP, Kennedy and Booker (obviously not as good as 04 but it would have made sense especially to get some extra seats and PPV buys for a SD PPV)
I'm so glad Hell in a Cell is no longer a PPV anymore and is only used for blood feuds like Edge vs Balor & now Punk vs Drew. That's how it was in the Attitude & Ruthless Aggression Eras. Glad it's back to that simple formula.
You can also say the same for the Tables, Ladders & Chairs match where it was a massive folklore match as a child growing up and always delivered and then got the PPV treatment, lost its luster and now aside from being a minor NXT Halloween Havoc one off match for their wheel spin, there hasn’t be a TLC match on the main roster since Roman/Owens and Drew/AJ in 2020.
I wondering when where ever to going to see another TLC Match? And thinking about it while writing this comment, if their one fued I like to see to used a TLC match, Reha Ripley vs. Liv Morgan! People talk about bringing back the Custody of Is Dominic Ladder Match, why not add Table and Chairs to that for the Women's World Title!?
Current ladder matches are basically TLC matches since the MITB matches at MITB 2024 featured ladders and chairs, as well as Oct. 4 2024’s smackdown tag team title ladder match.
Elimination Chamber is my favorite match type, but a lot of my favorite matches are inside the Hell in the Cell. Six Man, Undertaker vs Edge, and Batista vs Triple H my favorite overall match ever.
The first WWF show i ever attended was when Undertaker fought Shawn Michaels inside Hell in a Cell. The feud between CM Punk and Drew McIntyre draws some parallels and feels as personal, if not moreso, and definitely warrants such a match. I'm really excited for Bad Blood this year.
Undertaker vs hbk wasn’t even a personal feud back then it was because every match they had was a screwy finish so they did this match and Kane debuted 😂
@@pleaseshutup7053 It's kind of personal, Shawn screwed Taker out of the Wwe title by unintentionally helping Bret. Then their matches happened with Shawn getting away as usual. So they built HIAC to limit a screwy finish only for Kane to debut and did a screwy finish. Meh build-up to the match but still the best HIAC match to this day.
@@sarahfortune7760 yeh true it’s just funny like pav said how hell in a cell is suppose to be this epic feud ender when the first 4 or 5 weren’t like that I remember Foley be Kane hell in a cell on raw I think it was before king of the ring 98 or before the ppv kane won his first wwe title
Against ryback and paul heyman actually although paul does not do much in that match and the match sucked even when they announced it. I don't even wanna rewatch the match again.
I bet you didn’t remember Bobby Lashley and Xavier Woods had a Hell In A Cell match on Raw for the WWE championship. I believe this was the last Raw in the Thunderdome before they brought back the live crowds.
@anthonyanderson9303 EC is not for blood feuds tho. It's usually for a championship or an opportunity for championship that wrestlers gotta endure the pain inside the chamber. That's the lure which I think works cuz it makes whatever the title involved more prestigious. And I think it really works when it's before wrestlemania because it adds importance to the mania match
@@splash8429 and see I actually don't like it right before Mania cuz you already have the Rumble in January. Having two multi-man gimmick match PPV's in a row kinda takes away from both. It's like "oh well I didn't win the Rumble but I still have a shot if I win EC". Maybe put EC before summerslam and have the winner of that get a title shot. Or better yet, put the EC on at survivor series, it kinda fits the title of the show better.
I remember the build for summerslam 08 …. Edge v take I just knew take was gonna last ride him off the cell or some wild 😂 this match really use to mean someone was dying😂
In 2009 when the Hell in a Cell PPV was first announced, I for some reason thought every single match was going to be in the actual Hell in a Cell. I was sold, I got my dad to take me to the movie theatre to watch it. I was so shocked when the second match between John Morrison vs Dolph Ziggler wasn't in the cell. lol Lowkey, I was most excited for Mickie James and Alicia Fox, I was like yo I wonder how they are going to pop off, little did I know I was like 7 years too early (Charlotte vs Sasha Banks in 2016). In my head I was so hyped and was like why aren't mentioning that for the first time ever women are in the cell????!!!!
That Armageddon 2000 HIAC was......damn, it was something. It interwove an ENTIRE YEAR of stories into 1 match (Austin/HHH, Rock/HHH, HHH/Angle, Taker/HHH, Taker/Angle, Austin/Rikishi) and it was incredible.
It wasn’t until edge vs Seth Rollins when they actually got it right. When they finally established that match for what it’s meant, to end a personal rivalry
You know everytime a HIAC match is going to happen back in the day, It's bound to give us a wild match, I am glad that they are now giving the same vibe with CM Punk & Drew and hopefully HIAC can get to where it was before.
To add to your point with the PG era PPVs, these matches were meant to settle a score in a heated rivalry. The stipulation would come by a surprise late in a rivalry. With naming the PPVs, it felt like these matches were driven because of the PPV coming up, not because of the rivalry.
At least with TNA and Lockdown (Their version of the HIAC PPV) at least they found different ways to keep it fresh instead of relying on just the steel cage match
I'm glad that hell in a cell is back. When it made an entire ppv named after it, tlc & others. It took away from the mathes & made them feel less special. Why they painted the cell red is a mystery i will never understand. There was no need for it. I referred to it as "The Crate" because it looked like a giant milk crate.
When it comes to Hell in a Cell matches, Triple H vs Undertaker is the best Cell match I've ever watched Shout-out to New Day Vs The Usos Edge vs Undertaker Cody vs Seth Matches like that was so awesome
I’m glad they finally brought back the original aura of the stipulation it’s always ment to be the end game to any fued that’s so personal that it needs it I think Cody and Roman could’ve used it for their wrestle-mania match it would’ve made sense we hate each other and your family can’t help you now it’s the best fued ender so I’m glad it’s getting that reputation back
97-08 Cell matches were emotional roller coasters with amazing feuds or at least good chemistry and mayhem. My personal favourite will always be Mankind vs Undertaker. But I also storyline wise adore Batista vs Triple H.
Undertaker vs Triple H and Undertaker vs Brock Lesnar showed people how a HIAC should be and especially showed that it shouldn't be contained in a PPV.
My very first professional wrestling match is the Violent war between Brock Lesnar and Undertaker in 2002 inside Hell in a Cell As a 6 year old that made me love this sport for life A 22 year run of me as a wrestling fan started that moment, still going strong This stipulation match is sacred for me❤
If it's another thing I miss about the old Hell in a Cells, it's just the look & aesthetic. like look at the old design 0:42 , that looks like a structure made for two people that want to Massacre each other And then the new design in the 2010s 10:14 , it looks like a giant crate and it's too clean & too polished
One time in 2021, I went to a Raw taping in Sacramento. There, I met some die hard WWE fans, and it was the first WWE show since HIAC 2019. One of the guys who I met said “we booed the FUCK out of that” in reference to not just the main event, but the whole show
I get that Cody & Roman teaming up is huge but i still think Punk vs McIntyre is the rightful main event for Bad Blood that’s literally been the Feud Of The Year and deserves to have a final payoff for the hard work that Punk & Drew have done in this perfect feud
I feel like the true downfall started in 2010. 2009's matches in the cell were high profiled enough feuds for it to deserve a match. 2010 had Randy and Sheamus which didn't deserve a cell match at all, 2011 had the triple threat which is the same case. There would be some high profile feuds that deserved the cell matches, but some of them were put in the cell, just cuz it was that PPV/PLE. Now though HIAC is honestly in a weird spot. The next match inside it is obviously Drew McIntyre Vs CM Punk at Bad Blood in October 5th. The match before that was The Demon Finn Balor Vs Edge at Mania 39 which took place in April 2023. The conclusion is that it's been a year and a half since we've had a cell match, and if the wait can be shortened to time I can be content with, I would be happy about it. Nonetheless I still prefer a year and a half without a cell match, rather than through a non heated enough feud inside the cell every year or so.
Only exception in that era was Undertaker vs Triple H WrestleMania 28. Everything else I agree with. It wasn't till Cody vs Seth that they were starting to get it right. Finn vs Edge was fine but officials getting involved ruined it. Drew vs Punk felt like the older ones.
Take it from me who’s all time favorite match is a HIAC match between Brock Lesnar vs The Undertaker No Mercy 2002. It’s nice that the overall match is back to feeling important again and used properly as an end to a feud/rivalry and Punk & McIntyre deserve it.
That’s fire bro my first one I seen was the HBK and HHH as a kid crazy how we basically all had the same childhood jus in different areas in the world lol that Taker and Bossman one scared the shit outta me cuz as a kid I actually thought he killed somebody when he hung bro
I started watching wrestling before the hell in a cell matches so I got to watch them live and the first couple literally blew my mind as a kid lol. I mean I had seen the bunkhouse match but the multi man aspect made it feel less dangerous than HIAC. The first one made Kanes career and he was barely in it. The second and third ones turned Foley into a God and made undertaker and HHH into real badasses. Undertaker was kind of already there but it added to it if nothing else lol
While we’re talking about the HIAC PPV era, besides Legacy/DX, Rollins/Ambrose sans the ending, 2020’s offerings, Usos/New Day and Lesnar/Taker, there have been great Cell matches from that era. Bray/Roman from 2015, Owens/Rollins from 2016, Jeff Hardy/Randy Orton from 2018 and Becky/Sasha from that same 2019 card with the Seth/Fiend match.
It’s crazy how the hell in the cell was technically for Kanes debut. DX kept interfering to save HBK from Undertaker. Little did we know Kane would rip the door off and cost Taker. Storytelling in its finest
I'm glad WWE doesn't have the red Cell anymore since we got the silver one at wrestlemania 39 last year I'm just glad that hell in a cell actually means something since it didn't under vince mcmahon can't wait for bad blood on October 5th this is going to be awesome I'm happy we don't have Hell in a cell as it's own PPV.
The fact that Kane debuted in the first cell match to attack undertaker and then had that exact same type of match later on with the same man and it was nothing more than a foot note in that feud is ridiculous
I definitely wouldn’t mind a video of you glazing the psp. Definitely a goated console that I loved using, I used it well into college after having it jailbroken.
Did anybody notice CM Punk still hasn't got a proper main event match at a PPV since his return? The same thing Punk complained about the last time he was WWE champion...
The Hell in A Cell match is my favourite being more unpredictable than a Royal Rumble match, although like said they were definitely better before they had a PPV dedicated to it instead of a special occasion
Cody vs Seth was the one cell match where it once again became dangerous, like as in you actually look away cause it's too much which is what HIAC supposed to be, it makes you anxious and worried for those competitors. Cody could've lost his damn arm in that cage and it sickened us to the core, we didn't wanna see it, and at the end of the way, we saluted Cody for how damn strong he was doing all that with that much risk.

bring it back for mania 42 night 2
One time in 2021, I went to a Raw taping in Sacramento. There, I met some die hard WWE fans, and it was the first WWE show since HIAC 2019. One of the guys who I met said “we booed the FUCK out of that” in reference to not just the main event, but the whole show
Watching in October 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
We really went through a lot just to get here!! I can’t wait to see some carnage!
I get that Cody & Roman teaming up is huge but i still think Punk vs McIntyre is the rightful main event for Bad Blood that’s literally been the Feud Of The Year and deserves to have a final payoff for the hard work that Punk & Drew have done in this perfect feud
Pav, I’m surprised you didn’t even mention or
show ya boi Jeff Hardy vs. RKO in the cell,
Great Video tho, much respect 💪
missed how brutal the matches used to be
I feel like the true downfall started in 2010. 2009's matches in the cell were high profiled enough feuds for it to deserve a match. 2010 had Randy and Sheamus which didn't deserve a cell match at all, 2011 had the triple threat which is the same case. There would be some high profile feuds that deserved the cell matches, but some of them were put in the cell, just cuz it was that PPV/PLE. Now though HIAC is honestly in a weird spot. The next match inside it is obviously Drew McIntyre Vs CM Punk at Bad Blood in October 5th. The match before that was The Demon Finn Balor Vs Edge at Mania 39 which took place in April 2023. The conclusion is that it's been a year and a half since we've had a cell match, and if the wait can be shortened to time I can be content with, I would be happy about it. Nonetheless I still prefer a year and a half without a cell match, rather than through a non heated enough feud inside the cell every year or so.
Only exception in that era was Undertaker vs Triple H WrestleMania 28. Everything else I agree with. It wasn't till Cody vs Seth that they were starting to get it right. Finn vs Edge was fine but officials getting involved ruined it. Drew vs Punk felt like the older ones.
That Jeff Hardy Vs Randy cell match was crazy
“Hey its gonna be a hell in a cell match buckko”😂
Hell in a cell matches happened on raw in the attitude era
Take it from me who’s all time favorite match is a HIAC match between Brock Lesnar vs The Undertaker No Mercy 2002. It’s nice that the overall match is back to feeling important again and used properly as an end to a feud/rivalry and Punk & McIntyre deserve it.
The Randy Orton and Jeff Hardy HIAC match is hella underrated. My personal fevorite with the red cage.
7:29 prove it then
be quiet you strange little man
😂😂
That’s fire bro my first one I seen was the HBK and HHH as a kid crazy how we basically all had the same childhood jus in different areas in the world lol that Taker and Bossman one scared the shit outta me cuz as a kid I actually thought he killed somebody when he hung bro
I started watching wrestling before the hell in a cell matches so I got to watch them live and the first couple literally blew my mind as a kid lol. I mean I had seen the bunkhouse match but the multi man aspect made it feel less dangerous than HIAC. The first one made Kanes career and he was barely in it. The second and third ones turned Foley into a God and made undertaker and HHH into real badasses. Undertaker was kind of already there but it added to it if nothing else lol
While we’re talking about the HIAC PPV era, besides Legacy/DX, Rollins/Ambrose sans the ending, 2020’s offerings, Usos/New Day and Lesnar/Taker, there have been great Cell matches from that era.
Bray/Roman from 2015, Owens/Rollins from 2016, Jeff Hardy/Randy Orton from 2018 and Becky/Sasha from that same 2019 card with the Seth/Fiend match.
Women inside hell in a cell is ridiculous
It’s crazy how the hell in the cell was technically for Kanes debut. DX kept interfering to save HBK from Undertaker. Little did we know Kane would rip the door off and cost Taker. Storytelling in its finest
That’s 6 man hell in the cell was amazing
I'm glad WWE doesn't have the red Cell anymore since we got the silver one at wrestlemania 39 last year I'm just glad that hell in a cell actually means something since it didn't under vince mcmahon can't wait for bad blood on October 5th this is going to be awesome I'm happy we don't have Hell in a cell as it's own PPV.
Agreed bro. The Red HIAC was so unnecessary.
@thetruej7872 I agree 100% lol what was vince thinking just because the color red means Hell doesn't mean the cell should be that color.
@@benespinosa6725 Right. 😅
@@thetruej7872I agree 100% lol.
The fact that Kane debuted in the first cell match to attack undertaker and then had that exact same type of match later on with the same man and it was nothing more than a foot note in that feud is ridiculous
As a kid I had the best of Hell in the Cell dvd narrated by Mick Foley literally watched the dvd everyday until it was all scratched up
Was a reason for undertaker and CMP that match happened because CM punk disrespected SanhMichael’s backstage and he didn’t apologize
I definitely wouldn’t mind a video of you glazing the psp. Definitely a goated console that I loved using, I used it well into college after having it jailbroken.
I'm going to get to see the hell in a cell match between punk and drew
You don’t know how old you made me feel when you said the EARLY 2020s 😭😭
Im really excited to have a real Hell in a cell match since the ruthless aggression era
Did anybody notice CM Punk still hasn't got a proper main event match at a PPV since his return? The same thing Punk complained about the last time he was WWE champion...
@@serene5385 because he got injured
The Hell in A Cell match is my favourite being more unpredictable than a Royal Rumble match, although like said they were definitely better before they had a PPV dedicated to it instead of a special occasion
2010 Undertaker v Kane hell in a cell would’ve work if that was the 3rd match. In their fued
The red Hell In A Cell looks like a playground for kids. I'm surprised they didn't add slides and swings during that era.
That comment had me laughing as I am surprised Vince wasn't crazy enough to do it then
Cody vs Seth was the one cell match where it once again became dangerous, like as in you actually look away cause it's too much which is what HIAC supposed to be, it makes you anxious and worried for those competitors. Cody could've lost his damn arm in that cage and it sickened us to the core, we didn't wanna see it, and at the end of the way, we saluted Cody for how damn strong he was doing all that with that much risk.
If it wasn't for the mankind and undertaker match, HIAC wouldn't be as loved it is now
The most underrated is DX vs The McMahons and big show
