10 Best (Worst) Wrestling Horror Matches

10. Hell In A Cell Match

While not specifically a horror-themed match the way that most of the other entries on this list are, the intimidating name (and, of course, the terrifying legacy) of Hell in a Cell ensures that it belongs alongside the scariest match stipulations in wrestling.

The very first use of the stipulation - which sees a gigantic, roofed cage covering the ring and surrounding area - came at Badd Blood '97 and saw The Undertaker beat Shawn Michaels to a pulp... until the evil Kane made his debut, ripped the door off the Cell, and attacked The Undertaker. If that wasn't enough to cement the Cell as absolutely horrifying, the second major Hell in a Cell match - pitting Undertaker against Mankind - was one of the most brutal bouts in wrestling history.

There's no doubt that the gimmick has been watered down and used for nonsense over the years - just think about the Kennel From Hell match and The Undertaker's hanging of The Big Boss Man - but the announcement of the right Hell in a Cell bout will still strike terror in fans' hearts.
