The first ever Hell in a Cell match took place at Badd Blood: In Your House on October 5th 1997. The Undertaker battled Shawn Michaels for a shot at the WWF Championship inside this new steel structure, and the match would become one of the best matches in the history of the WWE.

When Shawn Michaels cost The Undertaker the WWF Championship at SummerSlam 97, The Phenom was determined to get even. Shawn turned heel after SummerSlam, saying that the fans were blaming him and dumping this all on HBK’s lap. This led to the creation of D-Generation X, and this new heel Shawn Michaels would face The Undertaker at Ground Zero: In Your House in September 1997. Due to interference the match was ruled a no contest and a rematch was booked for the next In Your House event. A new match type was created for the bout, a new steel cage that surrounded the whole perimeter of the ringside area and a cage that also had a roof. This cage and match type was named “Hell in a Cell”.

The first Hell in a Cell match would tell the story of Shawn Michaels trying to survive, The Undertaker trying to destroy, and the debut of a Superstar who would go on to become legendary in his own right. This video looks at the build-up to Badd Blood 97, the match itself, and how the whole Hell in a Cell concept came to be.
