We now know that Bryan/Kane at Extreme Rules for the WWEWHC is pretty much a given. There are also some folks speculating that this could be Kane's retirement match, or at least his last match before taking a few months off of television. So, rather than just holding a typical "Extreme Rules Match", I thought of an interesting stipulation that could write Kane off in a grand way rather than just The Authority firing him for losing his match to Daniel Bryan. And the match stipulation is what I'll call a "Pits Of Hell" match (that's the most appropriate name I can think of at the moment... feel free to add a cooler/better name if one springs to mind.) The idea is that there's a big "pit" somewhere on the ramp near the entrance way, with fire circling around it. Should look similar to the way The Brood used to ascend for their entrance back in the day. And the idea is that you don't know how deep the pit goes, and the "fire" surrounding it is supposed to metaphorically represent the fire of "hades." And the rules of the match state that you have to toss your opponent into the pit to win the match.
The match obviously concludes with Bryan knocking Kane into the pit, effectively winning the match and retaining the WWEWHC. And moments after Kane falls in and the bell rings, a massive amount of fire erupts from the hole and continues to burn in what I'd imagine would be a very cool visual effect. The PPV ends with Bryan victorious and staring at the fire, which is supposed to represent Kane's "final resting place." See, the idea is that Kane being knocked into the metaphorical depths of hell is him going back to whence he came from, since Kane likes to think of himself as "The Devil's Favorite Demon", and also given that the idea of fire has been tied to the history of the Kane character since the beginning. And this is the last we ever see of Kane (or at least the last we see of him for awhile, should they plan on bringing him back later.)
Yes? No? I realize it may seem silly, but looking other matches situations and stipulations that have existed over the years, maybe not. As a quick alternate idea, maybe a match of this stipulation doesn't occur (say it IS just a normal Extreme Rules Match, in this case), but rather Kane just tries to toss Bryan into a flaming hole or dumpster or something the next night on Raw (like he did with Shane McMahon back in 2003), but find himself being knocked into it by Bryan instead.
