#1 Kennel from Hell match

An interesting concept, but poor execution!
An interesting concept, but poor execution!

Hell in a Cell matches and Steel Cage matches have been two of the best stipulations that WWE has ever introduced in its programming. The two dangerous structures ensure a lot of brutality and danger in the matches involved. But what if you combined the two? A ring surrounded by a Steel Cage, which itself is surrounded by a Hell in a Cell. Sounds thrilling, right?

Turns out that WWE indeed had such a match which also had another massive addition to make it more dangerous - the ringside was surrounded by dogs. To win the match, the WWE Superstars were supposed to get out of the ring, get past the dogs, and finally escape the cell. As interesting and dangerous it sounds, it ended up being mediocre at best as the dogs were anything but vicious. They were not at all interested in the action inside the ring and kept on barking at each other and defecating.
