WWE Hell in a Cell a structure set to case pain and blood the cell made it's debut in 1997 when Shawn Michaels and Undertaker were the first of many to step into the cell.
This DVD showcases 14 of the best Hell in a Cell matches presented by Mick Foley who has pretty much made the Hell in a Cell a classic match. Now from Silvervision they give you a limited edition package which there is only 2000 in Europe I got number 1005 which I am extremely happy to have this in my collection. Now back to this DVD like most WWE collections it features an intro to the match a bit of detail then shows you clips of what's happened to get to that match then goes into the match.
So right now I'll review certain matches.
Hell in a Cell - Undertaker vs. Shawn Michaels - Badd Blood (October 5, 1997)
This is the very first match featuring the Hell in a Cell and features some good action Shawn Michaels beating up a camera man, shoving the camera out of his way. Undertaker beating the hell out of Shawn Michaels and busts him open this is a great match one of the best on the set. This match is also the debut of Kane which I thought the interference kind of spoiled the match. The footage goes off in parts as it looks like it's been transfered off a VHS tape.
Tag Team Hell in a Cell Match - Stone Cold Steve Austin & Undertaker vs. Mankind & Kane - RAW (June 15, 1998)
This match is short and it is not in the Cell for that long only Undertaker beating the hell out of Paul Bearer I think it lasts for 5 mins but the match cuts off when Stone Cold starts beating up Kane on top of the Cell.
Hell in a Cell - Undertaker vs. Mankind - King of the Ring (June 28, 1998)
This is the most memorable Hell in a Cell match and has one of the most played footage in WWE history the very match where Undertaker throws Mankind (Mick Foley from the top of the cell. I don't even need to go on with this match any WWE fan should have seen it by now.
I am going to skip the next match that other match was Mankind vs Kane from Raw now I'll skip to No Way Out 2000
Hell in a Cell Match for the WWE Championship (Cactus Jack’s Career is on the Line) - Triple H vs. Cactus Jack - No Way Out (February 27, 2000)
This match is a classic this has Foley falling from the top of the cell and going threw it and this match is fantastic this is one that people will have seen on the Triple H King of Kings DVD.
Six-Man Hell in a Cell Match for the WWE Championship - Kurt Angle vs. Rikishi vs. The Rock vs. Undertaker vs. Triple H vs. Steve Austin - Armageddon (December 10, 2000)
We have seen 2 men in a cell almost 4 but never really happened well for the first time Six men would wrestle in the dangerous cell. During the match because McMahon wants this match to stop he gets constructors to try and rip the cell down however they manage to rip off the door. How before this match you had the story of Stone Cold been hit by a car from Rikishi with plans by Triple H. The story also sees the rivalry of Rikishi and The Rock then Kurt Angle and Stone Cold. In this match you see Stone Cold dragging Triple H head all around the cell and even throwing a camera in the face of Triple H. Now we also witness Rikishi been thrown off the Cell by a chokeslam from the Undertaker. I remember this match very well and certainly it is a classic which lasts for 40 minutes. There is editing in this match as Undertakers theme song that was on here was Kid Rock - American Bad Ass and this song has been changed to a generic theme.
Now for the rest of the matches on this 3 disc set I won't go into anymore detail because any WWE fan should know what to expect in the Hell in a Cell. Just don't expect seeing Undertaker vs Edge from Summerslam 2008 because you won't see it here as this was filmed before that match took place. Thankfully the DVD doesn't show Big Bossman vs Undertaker from WrestleMania 15 I hate the ending where Bossman is hung from the cell because it's one of the worst that I have seen. The truth is the best matches in my opinion are on Disc 1, Disc 2 is not that bad (I have most matches on Disc 2 on the other events that I have on DVD, and Disc 3 is good specially Batista vs Undertaker from Survivor Series 2007 mostly because of the shocking ending.
The whole DVD is worth watching and owning it is enjoyable and if you like a bit of hardcore wrestling it is featured here this is one of the best WWE sets since the Ladder Match DVD and Hell in a Cell is a big part of WWE which makes this a must own for any WWE fan.
