Undertaker on first WWE title win against Hulk Hogan, memories of Montreal Screwjob
"I was 24, 25 years old, and I just crushed Hulk Hogan -- that's what's going through my head. They gave me this opportunity, they gave me the chance to run with the ball and I just hurt the golden goose. I'm just devastated. Mortified."
 
Pandemic-related challenges creating opportunities for stars old and new

As the vast majority of all sports and entertainment organizations closed their doors in response to the rapid spread of COVID-19 and waited for a window to reopen all over the world, only a few entities pushed forward under controlled environments. For months, temperature checks were the primary measure in place as WWE tried to keep its performers safe and their enclosed environment free of an outbreak. With the exception of a lone case acknowledged by WWE in late March -- a non-wrestler whose contact had been limited and happened outside a window in which shows had been taped -- WWE seemed to dodge major trouble. While not officially commenting on positive tests, WWE has adopted larger-scale testing for COVID-19 before each of their event tapings in recent weeks. A statement from the company read, "WWE will continue COVID-19 testing of its talent, production crew and employees in advance of TV productions for the foreseeable future."

Looking back at the best Hell in a Cell moments in WWE history

In professional wrestling, great matches come and go, but there are certain moments within those matches that transcend and truly stand the test of time. Over the years, the WWE has devised a number of unique, yet barbaric matches in an effort to crank up the entertainment value and offer fans and performers a platform to create some of these special moments; the Elimination Chamber, TLC and even rarities like inferno matches come to mind. But there is one type of match in particular that, since its conception 20 years ago, that has earned the reputation of consistently being the most merciless, and not coincidentally, a creator of many memorable moments: Hell in a Cell. Stated simply, Hell in a Cell matches have produced more memorable moments than any other match stipulation in history. As we look ahead to Sunday's pay-per-view, which will feature Shane McMahon's return to the Hell in a Cell against Kevin Owens and the first ever tag team title match contested inside the structure.
