Top 10 iconic extreme moments in WWE history

Buried Alive

Undertaker and Mankind squared off in the first ever Buried Alive match in 1996.

Among his many accomplishments in the WWE, the Undertaker gets at least partial credit for bringing about or popularizing several extreme match variations. That includes Hell in a Cell, Inferno, Casket and Buried Alive matches.

The first Buried Alive match took place in October 1996 at In Your House, with Undertaker squaring off against nemesis Mankind. Undertaker got the eventual victory, but not before the two men beat each other throughout the ring area and grave site.
