As we edge closer to WWE Hell in a Cell 2017, it seems that the WWE Universe is pretty peeved by the fact that there are only two matches taking place inside the Cell on Sunday. While the members of The Usos and The New Day all make their debuts in only the third-ever Tag Team Hell in a Cell match, there are two people for whom this won't be their first appearance.

Kevin Owens makes his second appearance inside the iconic cage while Shane McMahon steps into it for the third time in his career. But, which superstars have made their careers out of this illustrious match? That's what we're here to find out today.

So, without any further ado, here is our list of 5 WWE superstars with the most number of appearances inside Hell in a Cell:


#5) Shawn Michaels, John Cena, and Mick Foley - 4 appearances each

We start the list off with three legends of the professional wrestling business. Shawn Michaels, John Cena, and Mick Foley have all entered Satan's Structure four times, and all of them with wildly varying consequences.

Michaels has won three out of his four matches as the most successful of the trio, while John Cena has won two. Foley, on the other hand, has not won a single one of his matches inside Hell in a Cell.

But, of the three men, it is Mrs Foley's Baby Boy who commands the most memorable moment when he was thrown off the top of the Cell during his match against The Undertaker.

#4) CM Punk - 5 appearances

Despite not having been a part of the WWE for years now, CM Punk still makes this list at the number four spot. His five appearances put him just ahead of arch-nemesis John Cena, but he has been restricted to the same number of victories as The Face That Runs the Place.

Punk lost his first three encounters inside Satan's Structure before coming up with back to back victories against Ryback in 2012 and 2013 to bring his record to a respectable 2-3.

#3) Randy Orton - 6 appearances

Randall Keith Orton has been the one WWE superstar that has been afforded the most number of opportunities inside Hell in a Cell as The master of the RKO Outta Nowhere has waged war inside the Cell a whopping six times.

The Viper has enjoyed a 50% win rate inside Satan's Structure but his matches have see-sawed between really good and really really bad meaning he will never hold a candle to the final two names on this list.

#2) Triple H - 9 appearances

Triple H was once considered the master of the Hell in a Cell match as he had never lost a one vs one match in any of his first five encounters. His only loss during this period was in a 6-Man match for the WWE Championship. A loss to Batista was the first time The Game was pinned inside Satan's Structure.

Following that, he had three more appearances including the now legendary Hell in a Cell encounter against The Undertaker at Wrestlemania which served as his only other loss inside the Cell allowing Trips to finish with a record of 6-3.

#1) The Undertaker - 14 appearances

It is fitting that the man who competed in the very first Hell in a Cell match and provided so many memorable moments inside the iconic structure is one to have made the most appearances inside the Cell.

The Undertaker has done battle a whopping fourteen times inside Hell in a Cell over the years and it's easy to see why it's considered his trademark match. He consistently puts on great matches inside Satan's Structure.

The Phenom ended things with a superb record of 8-6 and it's highly unlikely anyone will be coming close to him in terms of Hell in a Cell success.
