If you’re looking to recreate this moment in-game, devs have you covered. You’re able to escape the cage, climb up, and send someone else crashing to the ground below. Here’s how it’s done in WWE 2K24.

To break out of the Hell in a Cell, it’s just a matter of damaging one corner of the cage by any means necessary. The main way to do this is by launching your opponent into the cell structure with an Irish Whip. It may take a few attempts, but before long, you’ll send them flying through the wall and out of the cage.

Some wrestlers even have a special finisher they can activate if an opponent is weakened against a side of the cage. A spear, for instance, is perfect to break the cage wall down.

With the wall now broken, you’re free to take the fight out of the cage and wreak some havoc throughout the rest of the arena. Not only that, but you can even climb the cage now too.

To climb the Hell in a Cell Cage, simply hit the R1/RB button prompt when standing near the cage. This will start the climbing animation though you can always stop and change direction to come back down at any time.

It’s worth keeping in mind that climbing the cage can be a risk in itself, as it takes a few seconds to get all the way to the top. Your opponent might be playing possum waiting to strike the moment you reach the apex, so do be careful.
