The Undertaker’s History Inside Hell in a Cell

Nobody has entered Hell in a Cell more times than The Undertaker, who has competed in 12 Hell in a Cell matches in his legendary WWE career. Let’s take a look back at them all before his 13th encounter inside the cell with “The Beast” Brock Lesnar.

How destructive are Hell in a Cell matches? The first Hell in a Cell match took place in 1997 for a shot at the WWF Championship between WWE Hall of Famer Shawn Michaels and The Undertaker. Since that hellacious match, there have been only 17 televised Hell in a Cell matches (not including the pay-per-view’s 12 matches since 2009).

Nobody defines the Hell in a Cell match like The Undertaker. Only Triple H (six wins in nine appearances) can match The Phenom’s six victories inside “Satan’s Playground”.
