There was something different about Edge and Finn Balor's otherwise stereotypically ghoulish Hell in a Cell match.

Not only did it look, feel, and present itself differently from previous Hell in a Cell contests, but there literally was something different; it was WrestleMania's first Hell in a Cell contest to not feature the match's characteristically made-for-this performer, The Undertaker. 'Taker, after wrestling the first Hell in a Cell match vs. Shawn Michaels at Badd Blood 1997, has since endured and indeed enjoyed a subsequent 13 appearances inside the unrelenting structure, three of which were at WrestleMania.

He defeated The Big Boss Man at WrestleMania XV that thereafter notoriously witnessed Boss Man being dangled from the roof of the cell via steel chains, with The Undertaker's second 'Mania Hell in a Cell match being his crucial defeat of Triple H at WrestleMania XXVIII which, truthfully, should've served as both men's retirement outing. Shane McMahon served as 'The Deadman's' final Hell in a Cell adversary at WrestleMania 32.

With their barbarous WrestleMania 39 bout in the books, it puts Edge up to three Hell in a Cell appearances with a 66.67% success rate, and Finn Balor up to one.
