With the Hell in a Cell match now meaning nothing, what's next?
After the Hell in a Cell PPV, I feel that they completely killed the Cell gimmick. Both Taker/Punk and Cena/Orton did NOT need to be in the Cell. DX at least used the gimmick to the storytelling of the match, but really, for me, the PPV completely killed the Cell. It used to be THE match to end feuds, much like the steel cage match was before this.
Really, what's next? What should be the next "big match"/"feud ender" match? Because, again, I feel that they completely destroyed anything the Cell really had and it's just another gimmick match now. It doesn't feel special at all to me anymore. Also, do you agree that they killed the gimmick? ![]() |

I don't think the gimmick is 100% killed, but they have to wait a while for the next Hell in a Cell match to occur.
They could go back to the cage match for a gimmick match ender, or a ladder match depending on the participants. However, I am always a fan of an Ironman or Last Man Standing match to end feuds, because to me it gives a true ending for the feud. |

Ironman, not really, because the Ironman, in my opinion, was about wrestling (and we know that's a bad word) and all the possible falls. And they've ruined it by making it no DQ, so there are only two real ways to score a pinfall. And Last Man Standing does work, but really, nothing ever really compared to the Cell. They aren't the same level. Last edited by Xero; 10-06-2009 at 02:41 PM. |

everyone used to pop when a hell in a cell match was booked because they knew it was either going to get bloody, some big bumps were going to happen, or both of those

We will never have a big bump anymore because the raised the Cell, so there is no way someone takes a bump another 10-15 feet up, or how ever high they raised it.

The Shane bump vs Blackman was higher, but he had a crash mat. That's fine. But I know for a fact you're talking shit you've seen in the indies where jack shit is taken care of. |

Oh, so you can land on the table, have one jagged piece pierce your back? Or maybe have it break wrong and drop you on your neck?
The first one has happened. The second one, I don't know, but it's a legitimate concern. Safety should ALWAYS come before a "cool spot". Anyone who would rather see someone risk their life with little to no safety has no respect for the business. That same thing goes for the ones preforming. Wrestling isn't about falling from high places, I'm sorry. |

When I was a kid, yeah. It was a good spot (don't consider that whole thing a match). It doesn't take away from the fact that it was ridiculously dangerous and shouldn't have been done. Foley was an idiot.
And the bump THROUGH the Cell was not supposed to happen and was a very bad bump. |

ask yourself this.
how many wrestlers have died in the ring taking a regular move? and how many have died taking a big bump/spot? |

The risk is too high when taking the big bump.
