5 Things You Probably Don't Remember About Mankind Vs. The Undertaker - WWE Hell In A Cell
One of pro wrestling's most infamous melees...
3. What Was Supposed To Happen?
The first fall from the Cell was planned, but the Chokeslam through the panel wasn't supposed to send Mankind careening perilously down to the mat below. Foley even contests that had he gone up high for the move, he'd have landed on his head, and would've likely died.
So how *were* Mankind and Taker supposed to get down from the Cell after Foley went back up? The panel was designed to sag enough for Mankind to be kicked through it, where he could dangle a bit before taking a controlled fall into the ring, with Taker then climbing down in tow.
