Futility comes in different sizes and shapes inside the cell. There are numerous categories when tackling the issue of losing inside Hell in a Cell, so let’s break this down…

Most Losses: 6, The Undertaker The Dead Man also has the record for number of total HIAC matches with 14, so it stands to reason that he might have lost the most losses. He also was in a cell match on Raw that ended in a no contest.

Most Losses, No Wins: 2 (tie), Shane McMahon, Ryback and Mick Foley (as Mankind and Cactus Jack) Foley entered the cell four times and never emerged victorious, although two ended in no contests on Raw. Ryback, on the other hand, lost two years in a row at Hell in a Cell, once as a face to the devious CM Punk, and the next in a handicap match with Paul Heyman against Punk. And we all know about Shane-O-Mac’s defeat at Mania this year, but he also was on the losing end of a handicap cell match in 2006 when he teamed with Vince McMahon and Big Show against D-Generation X.

Lose One and Done: 17 To date, 17 wrestlers have fought in one Hell in a Cell match… and lost. The list includes some who would have been unlikely to win, such as Vince and Shane McMahon, Jack Swagger and Ted DiBiase, but also Edge, Chris Jericho and The Rock.
