lesnar v taker...by A LOT. for starters the fact that (until that one) no hell in cell match had be contained in the damn thing save bossman taker. whats the point of this damn match if your getting out of it? defeats the purpose of a cage match by a lot. the work itself was top rate. great story great action great wrestling. for me it doesnt even have compitition.

HBK vs HHH gets a lot of shit from the IWC I have noticed. It is also one of my top favorite matches of all time. So emotionally driven that the length doesn't bother me.

In my opinion, the first one with Michaels and Taker has never been touched. It's an amazing match, great spots and felt meaningful. The only thing I don't like about it is the finish with Kane. I know why they did it, I'm glad they did it, but I'm not a fan of it when it comes to the match standing on its own.
Second would probably be Lesnar/Taker. And just to comment, the Foley/Taker "match" is over rated just because Foley fell off the Cell. Don't get me wrong, it was an amazing angle, but I don't consider it a match and it would be near the bottom of this list for me. |

Desty and I think alike. Taker vs. Brock. It wasn't a spotfest, just fucking brutal. It was what the concept should have been.

Another HIAC match that gets a lot of shit is Nash vs HHH. The story goes that the crowds weren't buying it so they brought in Foley to help buyrate. I dunno about that. I watched the video package before the match started last night and honestly I thought it was good build all around. HHH was ferocious and Nash was a big babyface. The match was good as well. There has been at least a handful worse. HHH pulls out a hammer and beats Nash on the leg and the head with it for fuck sake. Nash also gave a good performance and came off as fucking brutal as well.
Just trying to help the other selections get some notice with positive things from the other side of the coin. |

RANKING HIAC - WORST TO BEST
18. Big Boss Man vs Undertaker - The aborted fetus of HIAC 17. Taker & Austin vs Kane & Mankind - The RAW clusterfuck non-match 16. Randy Orton vs John Cena - was this even a HIAC match? Might as well been a standard 1 on 1 match. 15. McMahons & Show vs DX - Worse than all low expectations 14. Batista vs Undertaker from Survivor Series - Meh it was just alright. 13. Undertaker vs CM Punk - Could have been amazing a few years earlier. 12. Undertaker vs Mankind - Best spots but so slow in between. 11. The 6 Man HIAC - So many escapes and cartooney events 10. HHH vs Nash - Some cool spots 9. Undertaker vs Edge from Summerslam. Good match. Sick finish! 8. HHH vs Batista - The highest rated Bats match you'll get from me. 7. Undertaker vs Randy Orton - I liked Bob's presence. Good solid HIAC. 6. DX vs Priceless - Great beatdown. Great feel good story. Cool finish. 5. HHH vs Cactus Jack - Some sick spots and the match flowed fine. 4. HHH vs Chris Jericho - Highlight reel match for both. Not bad for Jericho's first time. 3. Lesnar vs Undertaker - Great psychology, story and pay off was amazing. 2. Undertaker vs HBK - The first. Probably the best. It was unique and brutal. If this match wasn't so amazing the concept probably wouldn't have become so huge. 1. HHH vs HBK - Not really better than the Taker one above but damnit I have love for this match. 2 best friends turned foe trying to OUT LIVE not pin the other. So brutal. So emotional. It was a truly amazing experience the first time and still totally enjoyable the 8th...... |

Ha. I was watching the Hell In The Cell DVD last night and was thinking about starting a "Who is the King of HiaC?" thread but I guess this kinda defeats the purpose of that thread.

I pulled it out of the closet late last night as well. I got 2 matches in and fell asleep but I knew I would wake up and make this thread.

as far as King of HIAC goes it is either HHH or Taker - take your pick cuz it really can't be anyone else.

Ha. I've been putting it on as I intend to go to sleep. It's taken me 4 viewings to get to HHH v Nash (and I skipped Taker/Brock & HHH/Jericho.
It would definately have been a poll between HHH and Taker. |

I loved the 6 man. It was total chaos. Everyone got out of the cell and they were fighting amongst cars. Mr. McMahon came out to try and stop the match, which was a little hokey, and Mic came out to stop Vince. Austin's head got smashed through a window. They battled on top of the cell, in the cell, out of the cell. It was great all around.
Lesnar/Taker would be my number 2. That whole match was great. Heyman was great and the finish made Brock a beast. |

I'm so torn between the 2 I'm going to call it a tie. I associate Taker with HIAC its like his signature...but honestly HHH is known for being way more vicious and brutal. Too hard to call.

it is a tag team match but austin doesn't come down for like the first half...the cell goes up and down and they lock taker in there alone with paul bearer... it is a filler cell match to build the big one at the PPV i assume..thats why it was so lame. |

The match that's on the DVD is a singles match that takes place after King of the Ring, I think the Tag Match took place before. It's the one where Taker pulls Makind off the side of the Cell and he falls through the announce table but smashes his head off the floor due to a poor landing. The match ridiculously ends in a a DQ when Ausitn attacks Kane from under the ring and the Cell only goes up once when Taker is on top. |

yes there was a kane vs mankind that ended in a dq. You are correct. I went back and checked it out.
I must have missed that when compiling my list. I apolagize. I can't go back and fix it but I doubt ANY ONE would have chose it anyways.... if so just write it in ![]() |

Oh, nobody was ever gonna choose that. A HiaC that ends in DQ!? C'mon! I was just clarifying to settle my own mind.

Also, I think there is a case to make King of HiaC into a Three Way. Although HHH and Taker have had by far the most matches, a case could easily be made for Foley. He kind of put the match on the map after all.

I love how every Hell in a Cell match has had at least one participant who was in the match before. Even the Kennel from Hell falls within that rule.

HHH vs Chris Jericho. I got to see that one live and in person and it was just awesome. Shawn Michaels vs Undertaker was tremendous as well, and of course Undertaker vs Mankind had the ultimate highlight.

Taker vs Mankind. For 2 big reasons:
1-The sheer violence/brutality. 2-The announcers. Example: GOOD GOD ALMIGHTY! GOOD GOD ALMIGHTY! THEY KILLED HIM! AS GOD AS MY WITNESS HE IS BROKEN IN HALF! That is my fav JR quote. Or one of them anyway. |

gotta go with Taker vs HBK while I didn't see it until earlier this year I must say it was just amazing. Mankind vs Taker was awesome but just seemed like it tried a little too hard to be extreme I mean JR's commentary was good but even for him seemed a little over the top atleast in my eyes.

It's definitely the first one for me, but I don't think I ever saw Lesnar v. Taker. Triple H v. Nash is CLEARLY the worst ever, though.

Come on, Bossman v. Taker was worse.
Also I believe that Lesnar vs. Taker was the best. The build was tremendous and the match lived up to it. Heyman was great. Lesnar looked like the dominate force they had built him to be and Undertaker worked his ass off to make him look that way. |
