5. Mankind Crashes Through The Cell
“It was the first time that I’d ever been knocked out in a match.” That’s quite a quote to come from someone with the history of Mick Foley. Mind you he wasn’t talking about the spot where he was thrown off the top of the cage during his Hell in a Cell Match against The Undertaker, as that went exactly according to plan but something even worse happened later on. The spot called for Taker to chokeslam Foley onto the top of the cell but when they went through with it, the supports gave way causing Mankind to fall all the way down to the canvas roughly 15 feet below. If that wasn’t bad enough, a chair that the competitors were using on the top of the structure fell with Foley and struck him in the face! Mick suffered a laundry list of injuries including a concussion, dislocated shoulder, and internal bleeding. The gravity of the spot is really summed up best by The Undertaker when he simply asked Terry Funk to “see if he’s alive.”
