6 WWE Hell In A Cell Opening Matches - From Worst To Best
3. Dolph Ziggler Vs. Cesaro (2014)
Oh how nice it is to write one of these columns and not have to watch multiple Dolph Ziggler matches. Last year he was defending his Intercontinental Championship, although he was doing so against Cesaro so the match was always going to be a blinder. Cesaro's superman-like abilities are a perfect foil for Ziggler to flop around, and the results are clear to see. The match was also a Best Two out of Three falls bout, and finished with a refreshing clean sweep for Ziggler. Often such matches can follow a fairly tired formula, so the champion getting a clean sweep was a pleasant surprise. It seemed as though it would set up something big for Ziggler, and the following Survivor Series seemed to ram that fact home. Alas, alas. A great opening to the show 12 months ago.
Born in the middle of Wales in the middle of the 1980's, John can't quite remember when he started watching wrestling but he has a terrible feeling that Dino Bravo was involved. Now living in Prague, John spends most of his time trying to work out how Tomohiro Ishii still stands upright. His favourite wrestler of all time is Dean Malenko, but really it is Repo Man. He is the author of 'An Illustrated History of Slavic Misery', the best book about the Slavic people that you haven't yet read. You can get that and others from www.poshlostbooks.com.
