Rijndri Load of rubbish!!
Moustroll Good movie but grossly overrated
Siflutter It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.
Fatma Suarez The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
SlyGuy21 So as it turns out, I found out that Leon White AKA Vader died right before I watched this, kind of eerie considering that the WWF found out that Pillman died just before the PPV aired. With that in mind, let's get to the card.1st Match: The Road Warriors vs The Nation of Domination, 3-on-2 Handicap match. The match is an OK opener, if anything it did a good job of developing Rock's heel persona, and The Road Warriors helped keep the crowd engaged. Simmons comes out and costs LOD the match, which hurts the Nation, because they had the numbers advantage, and still needed to cheat to win. Rating: 3/52nd Match: Max Mini and Nova vs Tarantula and Mosaic. As stated before , I'm not a fan of these matches, but this was thrown on the card to compensate for Pillman's death. The match exists, but given the circumstances, I won't count it against the show. Rating: None3rd Match: The Headbangers vs The Godwinns, WWF Tag Team Championships. The match is OK, but nothing special. The Headbangers are slightly over, but there are a few noticeable botches that hurt the match. I thought the heel Godwinns winning was a nice touch. Rating: 3/54th Match: Owen Hart vs Faarooq, WWF Intercontinental Championship. Owen looks distressed, which makes sense, his friend just died, and Austin comes out to do commentary. The problem with this match is that Austin on commentary is better the the two guys in the ring. The match revolves around Austin, more than the belt. Speaking of which, Austin nails Simmons with the belt, having Owen win. Kind of a pointless victory. Rating: 2/55th Match: Los Boricuas vs DOA. This is an 8-man Tag match, so there's a better flow than their last few brawls. Pretty basic, but OK for the time they're given. Rating: 3/56th Match: Bret Hart and The British Bulldog vs The Patriot and Vader. This is a Flag match, with the added stipulation that the match can end with pinfall or submission. So what's the point of the flags? I'm guessing they added that to help out Vader, but it brings the match to a crawl. The same way a cage match can grind to a halt, so does this. 3 out of the 4 guys involved are talented, the gimmick just kills the pace of the match, and it winds up boring. Rating: 1.5/57th Match: Shawn Michaels vs The Undertaker, Hell in a Cell. This is the first Hell in a Cell match, so it's pace is more deliberate, as they wanted to show what it was capable of. Shawn gets destroyed here, with Taker picking him apart for almost the whole match. I liked the spot of Shawn falling from the top, and it also has the debut of Kane, with Vince uttering the famous, "That's gotta be Kane!" line. It helped Kane as a debut, it helped Taker as a face, and it helped Shawn as a heel. There would be better Cell matches to come, but this is a good start. Rating: 4/5Final Rating: 6 out of 10. The main event is good, the rest of the card not so much. I feel like Pillman's death also hurt the show, because some matches feel scrambled together to compensate.R.I.P. Brian Pillman&R.I.P. Vader
amanwhorocks 1. Kama/Rocky Maivia/D Lo Brown Vs. Legion of Doom - Handicap match and even Faarooq have to help his team. 6.5/10 2. Tarantula/Mosaic Vs.

Champs-The Headbangers - That was again, like on One night only one no-special tag action. New Champs 6/10 4. WWF Intercontinental Title Match: Faarooq Vs.

Flag Match: Vader/The Patriot Vs. Bret Hart/The British Bulldog 7/10 7. Hell in the Cell: The Undertaker Vs. Shawn Michaels - First appearance of Kane, who helped Michaels to won! Hell match was fine. Taker totally destroy Shawn. 9/10
bh_tafe3 A shocking tragedy just hours before this event rendered most of the performances abysmal, but Shawn Michaels, not to be deterred, went out and put on an awesome match with the Undertaker to give the fans something positive to take home on the night. The tragedy in question was the shock death of Brian Pillman earlier in the day.The Night started off with the Nation of Domination (Rocky Maivia, Kama Mustafa and D Lo Brown) defeated the Legion of Doom (Hawk and Animal) in a handicap match. The Nation were never a group to like a fair fight.Next it was time for some midget tag team wrestling, and I mean midgets folks, not Rey Mysterio taking on Tajiri. The team of Max Mini and Nova defeated Tarantula and Mosaic in a short match, that still seemed rather repetitive. Midget matches nearly always consist of watching guys do the same few moves over and over again very quickly.Next saw the Godwinns (Henry and Phoneas) defeat the Headbanger (Thrasher and Mosh) to win the tag team championship. And so ended the Headbanger only tag team title run in the WWE.Next we saw Jim Ross honour some legends of St Louis wrestling. Poor timing given the events leading up to the night and it understandably fell a little flat, though the Funks, Harley Race and Lou Thesz are certainly worth honouring.Next match saw Owen Hart defeat NOD leader Farooq to win the Intercontinental Championship. Steve Austin had defeated Hart to win the title at Summerslam, but Austin had been forced to vacate it due to having his neck broken on a botched pile driver during the match. Owen won it back so he could lose it to Austin again when he returned.Next match saw bikie group Disciples of the Apocalypse (Crush, Chainz, Skull and 8-ball) defeat Los Boricuas (Savio Vega, Jesus Costillo, Jose Estrada and Miguel Perez Jr) in a continuation of their rivalry to decide who the number four stable in the WWE was.Next saw WWE Champion Bret Hart and his brother in law the British Bulldog defeat Vader and the Patriot in one of the longest Flag matches I've ever seen. Pillman had been in the Hart foundation, Patriot was only in his second PPV and Vader was past his best so this was not a great match.Then came the main event, the WWE's first ever Hell in a Cell match with The Undertaker seeking revenge on Shawn Michaels in a No.1 contender match. Michaels had cost Undertaker the title at Summerslam, hitting him with a steel chair, and they'd fought to a no contest at the previous PPV. Here they had one of the best matches ever to happen in the WWE, which was eventually decided by the first ever appearance of the Undertaker's younger brother Kane. Kane tombstone Taker and left him in the middle of the ring for Michaels to get the pin. Kane walked off with the Undertaker's former manager Paul Bearer, celebrating his handiwork and Shawn Michaels, flanked by his Degeneration X buddies Triple H and Chyna was headed to Survivor Series at Montreal to take on Bret Hart for the title in what would prove to be an infamous match.As I said at the start, the Pillman tragedy really hurt this show, and also put into context exactly where wrestling should rate in life. This night was a continuation of wrestling fading from being a pleasant diversion to something far less innocent. A month later the last vestiges of innocence would be lost forever as the so called fourth wall was broken down completely, never to fully return.
SephJunior Aww, I don't even know where to begin here! The entire event is based around the Hell In A Cell match with Michaels and the 'Taker... and rightly so. The whole match was a hunter/hunted-affair with UT at his most dominant since 1991. Shawn got his kicks in though, but when he took out his frustrations on a cameraman, all hell broke loose as the pair went outside, up & over the menacing cell. On a related note, I hope to god those Spanish Announcers are insured, Aye Caramba!!! Not even the appearance of a MYSTERY GUEST was enough to put a damper on this excellent piece of storytelling and brutality. Buy this tape just for that ONE match, it's worth the money!!
