#4. 6-Pack Hell In A Cell - Armageddon 2000

Six top wrestlers + Hell in a Cell = an epic wrestling match

This is the first and thus far only time WWE booked six men to fight inside Hell in a Cell. As a result, over thirty minutes of pure chaos and mindless fun that shows just why WWE was so white hot in 2000.

There wasn’t much rhyme or reason to the action in the match; it was wild brawling involving just the cell itself, but also various part of the set (which included scrapped cars, for some reason). But this wasn’t a bad thing; instead, it made things more dramatic and nerve-wracking.

Each time a move was teased and then hit, the audience went absolutely nuts, bewildered that these men would put themselves through such carnage. One by one, each man was busted open, showing how far they were willing to go for their craft.

Things got even more insane as one by one the wrestlers climbed to the top of the cell, which excited some fans and terrified others. This cell match had every fan on the edge of their seat as they awaited the inevitable ‘big fall’ that was expected of such a match. Which they got.

Prior to this match, the Undertaker had promised he’d ‘make someone famous’ and boy did he ever. This was the match in which Undertaker chokeslammed Rikishi off the top of the cell onto the bed of a truck.

By the time this match was over, every single one of these wrestlers looked like a bona fide star (even Rikishi, who proved his bravery by falling backward off the Cell). If anyone of these wrestlers’ star power was ever in doubt, said doubt was definitely gone after this match.
