Kane's Ambulance Match History
An explosive Ambulance Match at Elimination Chamber looms large. Though rare, there has been one other notable such match, at Survivor Series 2003 between Shane McMahon and Kane.
John Cena and Kane will battle in an Ambulance Match at Elimination Chamber on Feb. 19, the first of its kind since Survivor Series 2003. That match also featured The Devil's Favorite Demon. His victim? Shane McMahon.
Shane McMahon and Kane were engaged in a long and brutal rivalry, and they looked to settle their score in an Ambulance Match at Survivor Series.
"Here comes the money!" Shane McMahon makes his entrance with the ambulance looming in the background, foreshadowing what was to come.
Shane was seemingly shot out of a cannon at the start of the match, attacking Kane before the bell. The action spilled outside the ring, and things got ugly from there.
Steel chair, meet steel stairs.
As Jerry "The King" Lawler reminded viewers, "There are no rules. Absolutely anything goes in this match; you try to do as much damage as possible to your opponent. And the only way you win is to get him in that ambulance and shut the door."
Never backing down from taking even the greatest risks, Shane leaps from the turnbuckles onto the announce table, delivering a brutal early blow to The Devil's Favorite Demon.
The ambulance wasn't just a harbinger of the match's end. The vehicle also played a critical role in the match itself, and both competitors used it as a weapon in their arsenal.
Before the match, Kane prophesied, "Don't you get it? There is NOTHING that can stop me!" Shane did everything possible to prove The Big Red Monster wrong.
While Shane was no match for Kane's sheer power, the younger McMahon was creative in his assault on The Big Red Monster.

Shane's athleticism was on display throughout the match.
Unleashing the fury of ... Shane? Before the match, McMahon made a vow to Kane: "As long as I have a breath in me and I'm physically able, I'm going to make your life a living hell." Clearly, he meant what he said.
Shane O Mac drags the incapacitated Kane to the ambulance.
Shane unsuccessfully attempts to dump Kane in the ambulance.
Shane's efforts, however, did nothing more than enrage his monstrous opponent.
The ambulance took such a beating over the course of the match that at one point, Jerry Lawler mused, "The ambulance may need a tow truck to get it to the hospital."
The Big Red Monster turns Shane into a human javelin, bouncing his skull off the side of the ambulance.
Before the match, Kane promised Shane that "Survivor Series will be the end for you!"
Shane put up a valiant effort, but not even the "Shane O Mac!" chants from the WWE Universe could will him to victory. Kane proved to be too much, delivering a Tombstone on the concrete, all but ending the bout.
Kane slammed shut the ambulance doors on Shane, ending the match and sending Shane O Mac to a local medical facility.
Will John Cena meet the same fate as Shane McMahon when the Cenation Leader takes on The Devil's Favorite Demon at Elimination Chamber Feb. 19?
