This particular match is rarely used these days, especially in North America, due to its graphic nature. In fact, this match should always be reserved for a contest where either Kane or The Undertaker is involved.
In this match, both competitors enter the ring and once they're in, the ring is completely surrounded by flames. The only way to win is to somehow, set your opponent on fire. While the medics and fire personnel are readily available at ringside, the danger in this match is still very real. The bottom line is simple, you find a way to throw your opponent into the flames...you win.
The last time this match was used, was during the 2013 SummerSlam pay-per-view, when Bray Wyatt found a way to defeat the demon himself, Kane.

About the author

Jonathan Carpenter is a pro wrestling journalist at Sportskeeda. After obtaining a degree in political science from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock, he started writing WWE articles in 2016. Jonathan believes integrity is vital in journalism and ensures his work is high on accuracy. He conducts in-depth research and verifies information from various sources before curating a feature.
Jonathan has engaged in many meaningful conversations with prominent pro wrestling personalities like Drew McIntyre and DDP. He grew up in Memphis, admiring Hall of Famer Hulk Hogan during WWE’s Golden Era in the ‘80s. He has attended many pro wrestling events and credits The Hulkster for making his childhood memorable.
Jonathan, a big fan of Bray Wyatt, would like to see the latter's brother, Bo Dallas, continue his legacy as Uncle Howdy. If he were to work on the storyline, Jonathan would book the return of Erick Rowan as Howdy’s muscle. He thinks it would be a great way to honor the former Universal Champion.
When not writing pro wrestling features, Jonathan likes to collect sports memorabilia and has amassed a large collection of event-used and autographed relics over the years.
