The previous month, Legacy had actually beaten DX in a submissions-count-anywhere match at Breaking Point, when both heels forced a tandem submission of Shawn Michaels. This was the blow-off, taking place inside Hell in a Cell, and instead of an out-and-out spotfest between the chain-link, it was akin to an old-school war of factions.

The match began with the heels locking Triple H out of the cage, and then spending an inordinate amount of time pummeling Michaels while his partner tried to figure out a way in. Once he found entry with the use of bolt cutters, the match only intensified, and Legacy got their comeuppance in well-told fashion. At age 24, Rhodes remains one of the younger PPV main eventers in WWE history.
