Every WWE Casket Match Ranked From Worst To Best
20. Triple H Vs. Mideon & Viscera – SmackDown (23 September 1999)
The Undertaker’s 2005 encounter with Randy and Bob Orton may have been billed as “the first ever Handicap Casket Match” but this wasn’t actually the case. That honour belongs to a match that took place six years earlier on an episode of SmackDown, which saw Triple H collide with both Mideon and Viscera - though, it’s easy to see why WWE was eager to forget this one ever happened.
On a night in which Triple H had already faced Big Show in a Chokeslam Challenge and Kane in an Inferno Match, he was also supposed to battle The Undertaker in a Casket Match, but as The Deadman “quit” earlier that night, Hunter got Mideon and Viscera instead.
Given that Triple H was already spent from his two previous matches, and the fact that we knew Viscera was never going to fit in that tiny casket, there wasn’t much suspense here. Thus, the result was a predictably quick mauling from the diabolical pairing that didn’t offer anything special to the rich history of the Casket Match.
