25 years ago, The Undertaker and Mick Foley fought in ‘Hell in a Cell’

One helluva throw

It was 25 years ago at the Pittsburgh Civic Arena that Mick Foley and the Undertaker took part in a “Hell in a Cell” match that went down in history. Taker threw Foley off the top of the 20 foot cage and it created one of the great calls in the history of an announcer with many legendary moments, Jim Ross.
