How does the WWE get the ring to break? I'm not talking about like when Brock superplex the Big Show. I'm talking about like When in Mick Foley vs Triple H in Hell In The Cell. When Foley falls through the cell and the ring breaks. How does WWE pull it off? Do they weaken the structure of the ring before the match or do the press a button upon impact to break the ring? Or does the ring legit break sometimes like that?

The ring is usually rigged in some way to make it break. The ring "breaking" after the Brock/Show, Henry/Show superplexes is rigged as well. I do not know exactly how they rig it to do so, but I heard WWE has hired Hollywood stunt engineerers to set up stuff like this.
If the ring actually broke during a match like it did during Cactus/HHH HIAC, it could be very dangerous for the wrestlers.

i actually asked a wrestler one time how they did it and they use a trap door. the door is built into the frame of the ring where the plywood goes down. once its that match they unlatch the plywood door and opens the hole. Then they stay away from that area or are very careful near it.

It was for a match, it was for one of those segments where Hogan was in the ring, and then the Warrior would suddenly appear out of no where. |

I always thought when Lesnar/Show did it, they legitimately broke the ring and they tried to copy it with Show/Henry not thinking anyone would remember.
