10 WWE Hell In A Cell 2017 Impulse Reactions
2. High Spots
It's not hard to deliver the earth when you're already given the world, but Shane McMahon and Kevin Owens must at least be commended for their bravery and determination in a match that at one point looked weaker than the Cell roof that miraculously sustained their dangerous high spots.
A hot start and predictable finish gave way to a dreary middle that made up much of the thirty-nine minute affair, but the contest thankfully never reached the level of boredom achieved in the same amount of time between Shawn Michaels and Triple H in 2004, or 'The Money' himself and The Undertaker in 2016.
'KO' and 'Shane O Mac' both warrant praise for drawing gasps of anticipation from a crowd that knew full well at least one of them was tumbling from a great height. Owens' heel work atop the structure was exceptional, especially when he appeared to blow off the crowd's blood lust with typically excellent disinterest.
It certainly wasn't the best Owens match ever, nor the finest Shane contest or Cell encounter, but it just about stayed on track enough to feel like a satisfying end to one programme and the start of an altogether more shocking one...
