10 Best (Worst) Wrestling Horror Matches

A casket match (or, if you're a Lucha Underground fan, "Grave Consequences") is The Undertaker's specialty. For years, 'Taker would subject his most hated foes to the bout, in which a competitor could only claim victory by shutting his opponent inside an airtight casket, simulating the pre-burial process of handling the dead. Foes like Yokozuna, Mabel, and The Big Show all suffered this fate.

Casket matches are a variation on the whole "getting somewhere/retrieving something" theme that's so prevalent in stipulation matches, but with the added element of having to drag one's opponent along for the ride. That can make the bouts slow at times, but the casket leaves plenty of room for swerves - at In Your House: Beware of Dog, Mankind was lying in wait in the casket during the match, and he attacked The Undertaker when it was finally opened, helping Goldust claim victory.

With the apparent retirement of Undertaker and the inactivity of Kane, the casket match has seen its best days come and go - but odds are, one'll pop up when fans least expect it.
