WWE: 10 Best Steel Cage Matches Ever

6. Matt & Jeff Hardy Vs. Edge & Christian - Unforgiven 2000

It's a match that is underrated in the amazing rivalry between Edge & Christian and the Hardy Boys. E&C left the first TLC match one month earlier as the tag team champions, but the feud wasn't over. It continued at Unforgiven in a tag team Steel Cage match. There was an interesting dynamic to the match because it was tag team rules, which meant that both guys had to touch the floor to win. Jeff Hardy ended up going outside the cage, but that meant that his brother Matt had to deal with E&C inside the cage. Jeff had to fight his way to get back in. Just like in their TLC matches, they had some creative spots. At one point Jeff Hardy hit his Whisper in the Wind dive off the top onto Edge and Matt because Matt had to help break his fall. They even found creative ways to incorporate ladders and chairs into the match as well. Lita hit a hurricanrana on Christian off a ladder near the end too. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YMJ4cVCiBio The most disturbing bump in the match looking back at it now was when the Hardy Boys hit a Conchairto on Edge while he was on the top of the cage and then Edge took a back bump into the ring. Crazy for him to take a bump like that. At least they were smart enough to make that the finish. It's a match that is under the radar compared to their other classics, but you should give it a watch if you get the chance on WWE Network or elsewhere.
