7 WWE Hell In A Cell Stats You Should Know

Most wins, losses, shortest match, title changes and other info to get you primed.

This Sunday, WWE will hold its seventh Hell in a Cell PPV, with two singles matches scheduled to be held inside the Hell in a Cell: Roman Reigns versus Bray Wyatt, and the final chapter of the Undertaker/Brock Lesnar feud. They will be the 31st and 32nd matches inside the cell since its inception in 1997. Hell in a Cell is like a cage match on steroids. Much like the cage match was in the 70s and 80s, the cell is designed to be an ending point for feuds. Often times, we€™ll see a title match end in a disqualification due to constant outside interference, or a competitor repeatedly running away from an opponent, necessitating the cell to keep the two wrestlers in €“ and others out. But that€™s not always the case with cell matches. Sometimes they are booked oddly, or lately feuds incorporate the cell because there€™s a PPV and the cell needs to be used. Last year€™s match between John Cena and Randy Orton is a good example, while this year€™s two cell matches (Brock-Undertaker and Reigns-Wyatt) actually are great uses of the cell as part of their ongoing feuds. Throughout its 18-year existence, there are some interesting facts and figures that have amassed. Who has won the most cell matches? Who has never won inside the cell? How often is a title defended and changes hands? Who has competed inside the cell? And how successful is Hell in a Cell at actually keeping the competitors inside and others out? Let€™s find out a little more about the ins and outs of the previous 30 Hell in a Cell matches.
