The Undertaker is one of the most legendary Superstars to ever grace the squared circle, and the next time he enters the ring, he'll be surrounded by Hell in a Cell.
Undertaker's 6 Worst Hell In A Cell Matches
"The Deadman" will go face-to-face with Brock Lesnar in the third match of their series live from the Staples Center in Los Angeles on Oct. 25 at Hell in a Cell. The Undertaker has competed in more Hell in a Cell matches (12) than any other WWE Superstar, and he owns a 6-6 record in the stipulation.
Last time, we looked at his worst cell bouts, this time we'll rank the six best.
4 Possible Outcomes To Lesnar vs. 'Taker
6) The Undertaker vs. Mankind, King of the Ring (June 1998)
This may be higher on most people's lists, but isn't a match as much as it is an ode to Mick Foley's madness. This will never be forgotten due to Foley not only taking a dive off of the top of the cell through a table, but also due to 'Taker chokeslamming him through the roof. The man had a tooth in his nose by the end of the match! Hard to believe he lived through it.
5) The Undertaker vs. Brock Lesnar, No Mercy (October 2002)
These two clashed in a cell 13 years ago, long before Lesnar became a legitimate bad ass inside a cage in UFC and The Undertaker lost The Streak at WrestleMania. The bout between these two, which was "The Beast's" only cell clash to date, was an absolute blood bath and in the end Lesnar showed why he was dubbed "The Next Big Thing" by winning the battle.
4) Armageddon Hell in a Cell (December 2000)
For the first time ever, six men battled in the cell as The Undertaker mixed it up with WWE Champion Kurt Angle, "Stone Cold" Steve Austin, The Rock, Triple H and Rikishi. The contest was an all-out brawl between the six. The most notable spot saw Rikishi fall from the top of the cell into a flatbed truck, which was admittedly tame compared to what Foley accomplished two years prior. The Undertaker fell short in this one, with Angle retaining the gold.
3) The Undertaker vs. Edge, SummerSlam (August 2008)
These two rivals had one of the best feuds the SmackDown brand ever saw in 2008 and it bled into a Hell in a Cell encounter. This match was easily one of the best to ever take place under the cell stipulation and saw 'Taker decimate his opponent before winning.
2) The Undertaker vs. Triple H, WrestleMania XXVIII (April 2012)
It was a match dubbed as "The End of an Era" and if that's the truth, what a way to go out. Shawn Michaels served as guest referee as "The Game" and "The Deadman" tangled in the dangerous structure. Adding to the drama, 'Taker was still defending his unbeaten streak at WrestleMania. This was a passionate brawl between two icons and was filled with dramatic near-falls before 'Taker won.
1) The Undertaker vs. Shawn Michaels, Badd Blood (October 1997)
They say it's always hard to top the original, and we believe that the first ever cell match between Michaels and 'Taker still holds up. The concept was fresh and exciting at the time, and both men took each other to the limit inside the cell walls. Michaels, still largely in his prime, bumped like a madman while 'Taker was a menacing presence all match long. There was also a pre-Foley spot by Michaels through a table.
This clash is historic for two reasons, the first being the debut of Kane, who cost his "brother" the match and entered a love-hate relationship with the "Deadman" that has lasted 18 years in storyline. The second is that it determined the No. 1 contender for Bret Hart's WWE Championship at Survivor Series the next month. HBK won and it led, of course, to the Montreal Screwjob.
