WrestleMania 28: A History of Undertaker and Triple H's Hell in a Cell Dominance

Michael DixonFeb 23, 2012

No two men better define the Hell in a Cell match than the Undertaker and Triple H. They have been exceptionally dominant. So, it is incredibly fitting that these two warriors will end an era in a Hell in a Cell match at the grandest stage of them all, WrestleMania XXVIII. 

But before these two square off in Miami, we need to take a look back at just how great these two have been throughout their careers. Of course, their careers are so brilliant that we don't have time to look back at every Hell in a Cell match, but you don't need to see every match to get a complete picture.

Badd Blodd, 1997: Undertaker vs. Shawn Michaels

While HBK technically won this match (thanks to the WWE debut of Kane), he did not look like a winner in this epic clash. 

This was the first Hell in a Cell match in WWE history, and the Undertaker was right in his element. Shawn Michaels took a lot of beatings throughout his illustrious career, but none matched the one that the Undertaker gave him on this night. 

That was a mere slap on the wrist when compared to what the Undertaker did the following summer. 

King of the Ring, 1998: Undertaker vs. Mankind

No match better defines this era than this one. Mick Foley is not a small man, but the Undertaker tossed him around like a rag doll.

It didn't stop there. 

If the Undertaker's performance in this match doesn't define dominance to you, nothing will. The Dead Man was in another world against one of the toughest competitors to ever step in a WWE ring and made him look bad. 

Triple H would not be outdone, though, and he proved his own value against the same opponent. 

No Way Out, 2000: Triple H vs. Cactus Jack

Mick Foley went by another one of his alter-egos, but he took the same nasty fall that the Undertaker gave him. 

This was one of the more brutal matches in the history of the company, and it is where Triple H really became "The Game." 

He took every beating that Cactus Jack had to give him, fought back and dominated the match. This was Triple H's first trip to a Hell in a Cell, and he showed his toughness and then some. 

Armageddon, 2000: Undertaker, Triple H, Kurt Angle Steve Austin, Rikishi and The Rock

Kurt Angle won the match, but the Undertaker supplied the iconic moment, standing tall while chokeslamming Rikishi on to the back of a pickup truck.

Bad Blood, 2004: Triple H vs. Shawn Michaels

These two are best of friends, but when they fought, it was nasty. Shawn Michaels was one of the toughest competitors in the history of the WWE, but Triple H would not quit either. 

He leveled a constant assault on his friend and rival, eventually finding a way to beat one of the best to ever lace his boots. 

Unforgiven, 2006: D-Generation X (Triple H, Shawn Michaels) defeated Vince McMahon, Shane McMahon and Big Show

Both men have been in Hell in a Cell matches since this moment, but no match better defines the destruction that Hell in a Cell is about than these two. 

The legendary DX went to town against the McMahons and the Big Show. Nothing but legends were standing inside of the cell, but it was DX that stood tall. 

More specifically, it was Triple H that destroyed Vince McMahon, finishing this match off. 

When these two are in a Hell in a Cell, we're guaranteed to see destruction. Generally, one of these two men is on the right end of it, but something is going to give in Miami. 

Personally, I can't wait.
