Has anyone ever won this match with two consecutive falls? i.e not 1-1 but 2-0?

Ric Flair beat Mick Foley two straight at Vengeance 2006. Ric won the first fall when Foley was showing off with Socko dressed like Flair, and Flair rolled him up. Foley then smacked Flair with a trashcan and got DQ'd, giving the 2nd fall to Flair.

Good knowledge there folks. The reason i asked is because i was just watching HHH vs HBK at Armaggedon in 2002 in their 2 out of 3 falls match and it got me thinking did anyone ever win by 2 straight falls otherwise the 2nd fall is too predictable.

I always wondered the same thing. They always end the same with the Heel getting DQed or pinned Via Roll up, then he gets a pin/submssion, the face hits his finisher and wins... or the other way around

I think Benoit or Jericho won one in two straight falls on a UK pay-per-view.

Another question is, has there ever been a 3-Stages Of Hell match that didn't get to stage 3?

Not sure if there was another or not. Sent from my VM670 using proboards

2/3 Falls Matches are kind of a double edge sword. While having someone win 2 straight falls is rare and unexpected, it makes th eloser look weak by not having been able to win a single fall. But having a 2/3 Falls match go all 3 falls is more expected.

MVP beat Benoit 2-0 in 07. This is what I thought of first. The second one that never went to a third fall was Beth Phoenix vs Candice Michelle for the Women's Title on Raw in October of 2007. Beth got the first pinfall with a choke bomb and I think Candice was on her way to getting the second fall but her ass fell to the floor and busted her collarbone... Thus she lost 2-0..

In ROH the Briscoes used this as a gimmick for a short time.

The reason i asked is because i was just watching HHH vs HBK at Armaggedon in 2002 in their 2 out of 3 falls match and it got me thinking did anyone ever win by 2 straight falls otherwise the 2nd fall is too predictable. That is different. Triple H and Shawn Michaels never had a 2 out of 3 falls match. What they had was a 3 stages of Hell match. The difference between the two is that with 2 out of 3 falls the match is usually all contested under one stipulation and a 3 Stages of Hell match is contested with one stipulation for each of the falls. And there has never been a 3 Stages of Hell match where it has ended 2-0 as there have been only three ever and ironically Triple H has been in all three and having the record 2-1 . The first happened at NWO 2001 with the result being: Triple H - 2 (2nd: Steel Cage, 3rd: Street Fight) def. Austin - 1 (1st: Standard). The second happened at Armageddon 2002 withe the result being: Triple H - 2 (1st: Street Fight, 3rd: Ladder) def. Shawn Michaels - 1 (2nd: Steel Cage). The final occurred at The Bash 2009 with the results being: Randy Orton - 2 (1st: Standard by DQ, 3rd: Stretcher) def. Triple H - 1 (2nd: Falls Count Anywhere).
