Web Conn Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 For all the absurd cages and gimmicky cage match we have seen over the years First off is the Steel Asylum Match from Bound for Glorry 2007. For the bright red design and the whole on top alone. Another thing that sticks out in a good way to me is that everybody has a character some are cartoony but atleast everybody has a personality. The X Division guys all coming down the entrance one after another reminds me of BattleBowl 90. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Rob Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 Not really a gimmicky one in terms of special rules, but I absolutely adore the cage match from Smackdown a few weeks prior to Flair's retirement. It ended up being Flair and Shawn Michaels against Edge, Chavo Guerrero, Curt Hawkins and Zack Ryder, with the ongoing stipulation that if the Nature Boy lost, he would have to retire. What followed was around ten minutes of wacky, crazy brawling, heavy bleeding and gnarly violence. Definitely a lot different to many of the WWE cage matches that you'll see, just based on the sheer number of people involved - tag team cage matches are all but a novelty but this was unheard of, at least within the confines of a regular cage as opposed to a HIAC or Elimination Chamber match. http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x4qp64_sd-14-03-08-edge-edgeheads-chavo-vs_sport http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x4qqmr_sd-14-03-08-edge-edgeheads-chavo-vs_sport Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cwoy2j Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 The Bunkhouse Stampede match was pretty wonky in my opinion. Dusty elbowing Barbarian off the cage to win the thing was pretty absurd. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramsey Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 The WWC version of a Wargames match. To eliminate a member of the opposite team you had to handcuff them to the cage wall....and then beat the ever living shit out of them because it's Puerto Rico... 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
odessasteps Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 I think they did that sonewhere else too ... maybe SMW or even Texas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cwoy2j Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 I think they did that sonewhere else too ... maybe SMW or even Texas There's an SMW version on the WarGames blu-ray. They called it Rage in The Cage and it was Brian Lee, Jimmy Golden, Ricky Morton, Robert Fuller, & Robert Gibson Vs. Kevin Sullivan, Killer Kyle, The Tazmaniac, Stan Lane, & Tom Prichard.

The Great ML Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 They did the handcuff stip in Texas a few times through different promotions...USWA, Gary Hart's TWA, and I think maybe even Global. I believe they called it a "Thunderdome Cage Match," as opposed to a ThunderDoom, since there was no Ron Simmons or Butch Reed around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spontaneous Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 That one from ROH with Aries & The Briscoes vs. Age of the Fall vs. Necro Butcher in steel cage warfare. Necro is his own team and would randomly be entered at any time. Also, this one had its own movie so... let's get Ready to Rumble! http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x2obs7_ddp-vs-jeff-jarrett-vs-david-arquet_sport Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Edwin Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 I'm more surprised there hasn't been a single mention of the disaster the grand majority of CZW Cage of Death matches have been. I think the only good one was that one between Team CZW vs. BLK OUT which saw Jack Evans almost kill himself taking an idiotic bump off the top of that structure they called cage to the floor. The ROH vs. CZW Cage of Death match was the best, but that wasn't a CZW Cage of Death match. There was also the infamous ROH Scramble Cage match that was most famous for Teddy Hart's insane amount of dives leading to him puking all over the place. ROH also did a War Games type match between Generation Next and the Embassy which was really good too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tromatagon Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 The thunderdome cage caught on fire not the Chamber. AAA uses the domed cage and had to get a Brazo out of it. That's a fucking ordeal right there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
