10 Modern WWE Hell In A Cell Matches That Didn't Feel PG

10. Dean Ambrose Vs. Seth Rollins (2014)

While the second feud between Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose in 2018 was absolutely panned due to the incorporation of Roman Reigns' cancer, the character shifts for Ambrose and a terrible match at TLC, their first feud was widely acclaimed and would be seen as a classic rivalry if not for a few baffling decisions.

They would have great matches with wild finishes at Elimination Chamber and SummerSlam, have a genuinely seismic match at Money in the Bank and engage in some of their best ever intensity in the main event of Hell in a Cell 2014. The former Shield brothers immediately started battering each other, fighting on the top of the cage, taking mutual table bumps, stiffing each other with strikes and attacking with ruthless frenzy.

The two felt genuinely dangerous together in all the right ways, creating that classic Hell in a Cell fight feeling that transcended the PG limitations. Unfortunately the finish involving the holographic Bray Wyatt takes this down a lot and was a sign that WWE didn't see star power in Ambrose, but it still mostly holds up as a genuinely intense Hell in a Cell contest.
