TheOriginalOrangeGoblin Posted January 6, 2004 Report Posted January 6, 2004 So what is the best match ever which featured a cage. This includes possible contenders such as Bret/Owen, Magnum/Tully, Wargames 1, Wargames 92, HBK/Taker etc. Simple question, let's see the answers.
TheFranchise Posted January 6, 2004 Report Posted January 6, 2004 It starts and it stops with Bret and Owen.
NYU Posted January 6, 2004 Report Posted January 6, 2004 Hell-In-A-Cell between Shawn Michaels and the Undertaker. It had me on the edge of my seat for nearly 30 minutes, and has to be the best cage type match I've ever seen.
Tim Cooke Posted January 6, 2004 Report Posted January 6, 2004 The best match from a working and storyline point of view is Wargames 1992. The best singles match I have seen in a cage? Haven't really seen one that is really awesome. Tim
Guest BAR Posted January 6, 2004 Report Posted January 6, 2004 It starts and it stops with Bret and Owen. Yeah, pretty much. I agree.

Lil' Bitch Posted January 7, 2004 Report Posted January 7, 2004 Bret / Owen followed by Lesnar / Undertaker.
Guest Posted January 7, 2004 Report Posted January 7, 2004 A really good one would definitely have to be Foley/HHH in Hell in A Cell at No Way Out 2000. No one has talked about that yet.
Dangerous A Posted January 7, 2004 Report Posted January 7, 2004 WarGames 1992 Next up to me is Magnum/Tully. Bret/Owen is a very good match, but I didn't feel the hatred that a cage match warrants like I did with the Wargames 92 or Mag/Tully matches. Those cage matches were textbook in how to convey pure hatred for your opponent AND blow off a heated feud.
Use Your Illusion Posted January 7, 2004 Report Posted January 7, 2004 Magnum/Tully. Sure the wrestling sucked dick, but JESUS, find me another match with that much emotion and I'll give you a badge. UYI disclaimer: offer only available to son of God.
Guest Dynamite Kido Posted January 7, 2004 Report Posted January 7, 2004 Best WWF/WWE Blue Cage match - Bret vs. Owen (Summerslam 94) Best War Games - Great American Bash Tour 87 (First one with JJ Dillion) Best regular cage match - Magnum TA vs. Tully Blanchard Best Hell in a Cell - Ut vs. HBK (Bad Blood)
BifEverchad Posted January 7, 2004 Report Posted January 7, 2004 Best WWF/WWE Blue Cage match - Bret vs. Owen (Summerslam 94) Best War Games - Great American Bash Tour 87 (First one with JJ Dillion) Best regular cage match - Magnum TA vs. Tully Blanchard Best Hell in a Cell - Ut vs. HBK (Bad Blood) Agreed!
Robert Posted January 10, 2004 Report Posted January 10, 2004 CHAMBER OF HORRORS![/sarcasm] Owen/Bret Taker/Lesnar Race/Flair TA/Blanchard All HIAC matches (excpetion to Bossman/Taker )
razazteca Posted January 10, 2004 Report Posted January 10, 2004 A really good one would definitely have to be Foley/HHH in Hell in A Cell at No Way Out 2000. No one has talked about that yet. Its not on DVD.
Guest JPF Posted January 10, 2004 Report Posted January 10, 2004 Either WarGames 92 or the Rage in a Cage tag.
The Mandarin Posted January 23, 2004 Report Posted January 23, 2004 While it's not the best, I was very entertained by The Rock vs. Mankind vs. Ken Shamrock from Breakdown: IYH of 1998. 'Twas a lot better than the main event.
Guest atari_junkie Posted January 29, 2004 Report Posted January 29, 2004 I had/have an unusual obsession with the Jericho/X-Pac Cage match from No Mercy '00. Also, Blanchard/Magnum was awesome.
snuffbox Posted February 8, 2004 Report Posted February 8, 2004 of those already picked ill go with Tully-Magnum, Bret-Owen, and all the WarGames.. some love should go to - Hogan-Bossman, WarGames 89, and Steiners v. Money Inc
Lil' Bitch Posted February 25, 2004 Report Posted February 25, 2004 I also have to add in the Bowery Death match from Slamboree 98 (DDP vs. Raven). That was just such a kickass match to me. Plus I love the originality of using a steel cage with the roof covered with the Last Man Standing rule applied.

Guest Your Olympic Hero Posted February 29, 2004 Report Posted February 29, 2004 WWF - Bret vs. Owen WCW - Wargames '92 NWA - Magnum vs. Tully
The Metal Maniac Posted February 29, 2004 Report Posted February 29, 2004 Bret/Owen is a very good match, but I didn't feel the hatred that a cage match warrants I dunno man...Owen trying to bite Bret's finger's off did it for me. Personally, I say Undertaker vs HBK, HitC.
Guest Choken One Posted February 29, 2004 Report Posted February 29, 2004 Attacking Bret right in front of the family...locking them out all out for a beatdown isn't "Hatred"... The very fact they even HAD a cage match was a sign of hatred.
snuffbox Posted February 29, 2004 Report Posted February 29, 2004 *Haven't seen Money Inc VS Steiners... CO - You owe it to yourself to find a copy of that match. It is from a Summerslam Sepectacular(or whatever) on USA in '93. Awesome.
Guest Your Olympic Hero Posted March 4, 2004 Report Posted March 4, 2004 *Haven't seen Money Inc VS Steiners... CO - You owe it to yourself to find a copy of that match. It is from a Summerslam Sepectacular(or whatever) on USA in '93. Awesome. Should have been on the actual Summerslam card, and then continue the Razor/DiBiase, IRS/Kid bullshit on Raw.

Imagine if SS93 had a Money Inc-Steiners cage match and a Heavenly Bodies-Ramon/Kid match...the card would definitly be remembered a bit more fondly.
