Wait did you have to win by climbing out the hole in the middle? That seems ill-conceived.

There shouldn't be escape options for cage matches period - it should be pinfall or submission. The whole reason you're in the fuckin' cage is to stop the other guy from running or have his goons interfere or whatever else has been happening for the last few weeks leading up to it. Why go through the trouble of getting a cage match when they can just run from you and win? It's never made sense. And stop with the busting through the side gimmick.

The no escape, no help has morphed into the HIAC now and a cage is just a way to do more damage to someone.

Yeah there's always constant interference bullshit and escapes in like the final tier of cages meant for there to never be any escapes or interference Makes the whole thing completely pointless

Literally the first Hell in a Cell ever ended with an interference spot. That part of the stipulation was always meaningless.

do you know why mankind got thrown off the cell? Because they knew if something theatrically incredible did not happen in that match, the hell in a cell would be a lame duck. It was going to be a very very bad match after the second HIAC was a farse and the first one ended in the very concept of the match being negated. It's worse than the match contested in a large container filled with various substances, typically between two female individuals who may or may not have experience with wrestling. Substances can include anything from mud to chocolate milk. Sometimes, specialty substances are used for certain occasions e.g. gravy for Thanksgiving and egg nog for Christmas.

Didn't Van Halen or someone have a super-heavy set in the 80s that caused some arena floors to sag? They got sued over it but their rider said "our set is REALLY HEAVY make sure your floor can support that weight you morons" so they never lost.

yes hence the M&M rider in their contract as a quick way to see if the venue had actually read the thing

they should just put a cage around the cage. then no one can escape or interfere! but make sure to have a referee there to open the door in case someone wants to leave

Though this one rapper did ask us for Sharks fruit snacks once with only the Great White ones. It was silly but we did it and he was beyond floored. I think his name was Astronautilis?

Watching a couple of those matches made me realize what the point of the escape clause is. Iit always made Bruno look like a badass as he casually sauntered out of the ring while his opponent was laying in a pool of his own blood in the center of the ring. Shame every cage match now is people trying to flee or barely making it out first or straight up busting through the cage.

This is why Roman whining about that stupid cage match for months wrung so hollow to me. He spent four loving months going on and on about how he was the Real Champion because he might've touched the floor two seconds before Brock did. Not because he beat Brock, but on the flimsiest technicality possible.

They do such a poo poo job at booking their face of the company.

They were made specifically to usually get someone over. Now they're used so frequently it just doesn't matter by the end of it. That's wwe for you I suppose.
