Description

This week marks the 23rd anniversary of the most famous bump in wrestling history during the infamous Mankind vs. Undertaker Hell In A Cell Match at King Of The Ring 1998.

Paul and Ash take a look back at this unique time in the Attitude era when Mick Foley used his unique mix of physical skills, charisma and vulnerability to make himself one of the biggest stars in wrestling, with this match being a key part of that.

The guys discuss:

- How the fame of the big bumps have completely warped the memories of the match as a whole.
- Why the thumbtacks are just like a church in Rome.
- What did the rest of the card offer behind this match? (Spoiler: Not a lot)
- Where were we when we saw this match?
