Yeah my understanding was him and HBK are on retiring at WM next year after been inducted into the HOF. God knows how WWE will cope without them.



Hey anyone else heard about this Hulkamania touring fed? Been put together by Hogan and Eric Bischoff, doing a short tour in Aus later this year, would love to go to a UK one.


Only bad thing is Ric Flair is wrestling for them.

Don't get me wrong I think he's awesome and a legend, but there is no way he could ever top that 'retirement' match with HBK last year, so by returning for another (smaller) group in front of smaller crowds it just reduces the meaning of last year's WM IMO.

Kennel from Hell?!

I'd agree 100% mate - it's overkill. Matches like Hell in a Cell and Elimination Chamber should be done maybe only once a year (one match that is), so that fans look forward to it, and it keeps it fresh.
The problem over the years is that the likes of Taker, Foley and HBK set such high standards for HIC for example, that guys like Cena, Batista, Orton etc will never be able to match.

if there going to call it hell in a cell why have normal matches on the card

Indeed.
I would like to see how many of the current crop would be willing to be choked slammed through the top of the cell to the ring below.
I would be even more interested how many would be willing to be thrown from the top of the cell onto the annoucers desk.
Now think that Mick did both of those things in the same match!!
Someone is now going to say that this happened in one of the matches that just happened arn't they as I didn't see it.

tbf, foley never actually PLANNED to be chokeslammed thru the top of the cage. it's just the cage itself gave way under the weight of both foley and taker

Yeah I had forgotten about that.
The off the top throw though was all about Foley being a nutter.
Infact didn't Foley state that Taker asked him if he was sure he wanted to do it just before he threw him off in Foley's book?
I loved that fact that Foley stated that he had 1 of his teeth in his nose (I think that was where he said it was) after he bounced off the ring.
Most people would have just died there and then Foley just got up

There's a documentary about it on youtube. Type 'hell in a cell mick foley' and i'm sure you'll find it

Cool
I actually have Foleys book as well a very interesting read tbh.

Punjabi Prison...

WWE have sent out another survey to their mailing list asking the fans to help rename yet another PPV.

This time it is Judgment Day. According to the list on the survey, fans can pick from the following names: Judgment Day, Riot Control, Multimania and WWE War Games.

Hell in a Cell for every match?!

Only Russo would think that's a good idea mate.

Can't really think of many similar bumps - HBK kinda did in the 1st ever one (but sort of from the side of the Cell rather then off the top, still through an announcer's desk though IIRC).

That second Foley bump (the one through the cage) was even more brutal then the first because the first one through the announcers' desk was at least planned. Search the match on that popular video sharing website (

), he goes through the cell and whilst his laid out in the ring a steel chair has followed him and hits him in the face/head!

Yeah, let's see Abyss do that Lister.

Not sure if same one, but Beyond the Mat is a great wrestling doc/film.

Hey, anyone getting the new SmackDown game when it's out then?

yea iam cant wait

why call it hell in a cell then

change it to hell in a half cell

Hell In A Cell on a pole match?

No option to vote for "Shameless Cash-In Featuring All The Same Matches From The Last PPV"?

Both of Foley's big bumps were planned.

30-man Hell in a Cell Rumble?!





How about a HLA match?

Not the second one.

Wonder why WWE doesn't use the Scaffold Match?
