#4 Not approved: The Undertaker chokeslamming Mick Foley through WWE Hell in a Cell

Despite being thrown off the top of WWE Hell in a Cell, Mick Foley refused to bring an early end to the match.

After being wheeled halfway up the entranceway on a stretcher, the WWE legend went against the advice of WWE colleagues Sgt. Slaughter and Terry Funk by going back to the ring and climbing to the top of the WWE Hell in a Cell structure.

The chaotic scenes continued on top of WWE Hell in a Cell, with The Undertaker sending Foley through the cell and onto the ring canvas with a chokeslam (08:40 in the video above).

As the man behind The Undertaker character, Mark Calaway, recalled on NotSam Wrestling in June 2020, the second fall through the WWE Hell in a Cell roof was not approved and the cell was not supposed to give way at that moment.

“He’d already taken the bump off the top. Although that one was planned, that’s not easy to do and it ain’t easy on the body. And then this [second WWE Hell in a Cell bump] happens, and he landed… Man, he landed in such a funky way. I didn’t know that he was going to get up.”

Calaway said he encouraged Foley to end the match after the chokeslam through the WWE Hell in a Cell roof. However, his opponent was keen to get to the next scripted spot in the match, which involved thumbtacks.

In the end, The Undertaker slammed Foley back-first onto the thumbtacks before following up with a Tombstone Piledriver to pick up the victory.
