The 5 best Hell in a Cell Matches

#1 The Undertaker vs Mankind (King of The Ring, June 28, 1998)

The most violent, brutal match in WWE history is the only choice for the number one spot.

The sheer amount of injuries that Mankind suffered tells you everything you need to know. Mick Foley's psychotic alter-ego sustained a concussion, dislocated left shoulder, bruised ribs, internal bleeding, puncture wounds, a dislocated jaw and a cut to his face so large, that Foley could stick his tongue through it.

Foley also lost several teeth.

The match began with Mankind atop of the cell. The Undertaker would soon join him. After several minutes of brawling, "The Phenom" threw his opponent off the top of the cell through the announce desk below.

The historic commentary by Jim Ross still haunts to this day. J.R screamed: "Good God almighty! Good God almighty! That killed him!" and "As God as my witness, he is broken in half!"

Incredibly, the match was not over. Scary scenes ensued whilst doctors attended to Mankind, who was momentarily unconscious as a result of the fall.

After several minutes, Mankind was able to get off a stretcher and return to the top of the cell. Undertaker followed him and seconds later, 'Taker choke-slammed his opponent through the roof of the cell to the canvas below. Mankind landed with a sickening thud as a steel chair bashed him in the face on his way down.

J.R cried: "Will somebody stop the damn match?! Enough's enough!". No one did. The brutality continued, with Mankind suffering another choke-slam, this time into thumbtacks. Foley's back resembled a pin-cushion. Finally, a tombstone ended this massacre.

It was a collection of spots rather than a coherent match but what a stunningly brutal array of spots they were. Do not expect to see violence of this scale on WWE television again.

Undoubtedly, the most famous and most violent match in WWE history. A truly unforgettable spectacle.
