6. 6-Person Hell In A Cell

There wasn't really anywhere to go after this.

The then-WWF plonked six of the biggest stars in the industry inside Hell In A Cell, and had them go at it like someone playing multiplayer carnage on WWE 2K23. Steve Austin, The Rock, Triple H, The Undertaker, Kurt Angle and Rikishi all took mighty bumps (the latter's 'sawdust fall' was epic) throughout this bloody brawl before Angle somehow escaped with his title.

WWE hasn't tried anything like this since. Sure, multi-wrestler matches are the norm on TV and PLE even today, but a six-strong HIAC?! Nope, nothing has come close. This was gimmick saturation, and that's probably why Vince McMahon elected against making it a regular occurrence.

Today, Triple H has the Elimination Chamber to satisfy demands for multiple wrestlers beating the snot out of one another inside a big cage. WarGames is there too, so it's unlikely a six-man/woman Hell In A Cell will ever make air again.
