7 Extreme WWE Hell In A Cell Moments You'll Never See Again
5. Chairshots To The Head
At WrestleMania XXVII in 2011, Triple H hit a vicious chairshot to the Undertakers head. The move didnt help The Game win the match, but it did hit both wrestlers in the pocket, as they were fined for their actions. A year later, the two superstars did battle in Hell in a Cell at WrestleMania XXVIII, this time keeping all chairshots below the neck. Earlier Hell in a Cell matches featured chairshots to the head as part of the hardcore nature of the match. But after concerns were raised about how concussions affect athletes in various sports, including WWE, the company banned shots to the head. Theyve only happened a handful of times since then, with 2011s match being one example, and the most recent notable one being Randy Orton and Daniel Bryan on Raw last summer. http://youtu.be/rVWWQfs_CTA?t=37m34s So even though the first Hell in a Cell match featured a chairshot to the head, with Undertaker waffling Shawn Michaels, its a safe bet fans wont see a wrestler taking a steel shot to the skull later this month.
