Now entering the Realms, weighing in at more than he should, from Salt Lake City Utah, he is the Writer for Causing a Scene-ario, TheFreak! (Cue intro music)
Starting tomorrow, a new "universe" is joining the Clix Multiverse, the WWE! Over the years, there have been numerous match types that could make for some great scenarios.
First is the Royal Rumble. If you're a wrestling fan, there's a good chance you've already found a way to incorporate this one. It wouldn't be too hard. In the match, 2 wrestlers begin in the ring. You eliminate opponents by tossing them out OVER the ropes with both feet on the ground (this is important, as numerous wrestlers have abused this). 30 total wrestlers compete, entering one at a time. Wrestlers enter at either 90 seconds, or 2 minutes dependent on event. Entering later is an advantage, as you're more rested compared to those who've been competing. You could do a straight lift, and have each player bring a set amount of figures. Probably best to assign a cap, like 90-100 points or whatever you feel best works. If you know how many players you have, divide 30 by that number. Otherwise, you have each player bring X amount, and they can choose how many to enter once the number is established. Assign numbers to each figure and then start! Could take awhile, so this would probably be best served as the only game, not a 3 round tournament unless you reduced the number of participants each round. Just do KO's, as there is really way to toss over the ropes.
Captain's Fall is more simple. You could have any point value, any "age" you want. All you need to do is determine who your "Captain" is for each team (highest point, lowest point, select one, random). Once that figure is KO'ed, the game is over! This one can have some fun strategy to it. Do you go for the fast win? Leave the Captain be and score some points? Just think ahead when you set this up. You don't want someone "being a dink" with their Captain, choosing some unkillable figure.
An Iron Man Match (no, not Tony Stark) would be another easy to adapt. I would suggest a lower build total, few figures. But instead of ending the round by defeating all your opponent's figures, they could "respawn" in their starting zone. You could count how many total KO's you had, or tally points. You'd need a way to count how many times certain figures were KO'ed; maybe a D6 or notes.
The Elimination Chamber could be done, by placing 4 Special tokens ("Cell Tokens") in various places. I would probably suggest 4 somewhere close to the middle (but not directly). Then assign a number to each. Ideally, each player should have 3 figures. Then, at the start of the game, each player decides who starts in the starting zone, and who are in the Cells. Then, at a pre-determined time, roll 1d6, and release the rest at different durations. Re-roll if that cell is empty, on a 5 or 6, roll again or roller's choice (or both!). Characters in the cell can't attack or be attacked, but you could make an argument that they could use support type powers, as wrestlers in the cell have been known to psyche out opponents if they were feuding. Think of it as Stone Cold distracting The Rock with a "Stone Cold Salute" and Kane bashing The Rock into the cell door.
Lastly, and probably the easiest, is a Hardcore Match. OBJECTS GALORE. Just litter the map with things to bash over your opponent's head. Make a rule that breaking terrain generates objects, with a die roll to decide if it's heavy or light. Maybe objects can be used twice each instead of once. Maybe when adjacent to a vehicle, you can get a damage bonus for smashing them into it. It's Hardcore!
I'm going to stop there, because there's probably a lot more you could do. What are you doing for the WWE figure's arrival? Sound off in the comments!
AND THAT'S THE BOTTOM LINE, BECAUSE CAUSING A SCENE-ARIO SAID SO!

Reason: Oops. It's Elimination Chamber not Hell in a Cell
Contrary to popular belief, I do know what I'm doing
Hell in a Cell is just a glorified cage match; Instead of the cage being fitted just outside the ropes, it is fitted to allow room around the ring. You can see it in the picture.
The match you are thinking of that would allow people to enter from 'cell tokens' sounds like you were going for the Elimination Chamber, where the wrestlers start inside of pods and then the pods open as the match goes on.
I think that you can trap people back inside of pods, though, so it may require some other special rules. Probably need someone that has actually watched an elimination chamber match to be sure, though.

D'oh!! It was late last night when I was finishing it up. Everything about that paragraph does actually work as Elimination Chamber except the name. I'm going to edit it to say Chamber instead of HiaC.
I do remember an Elimination Chamber where they put someone back in the pod, but I don't think they were still trapped. Though, you could easily integrate the Deathtrap rules from Batman '66 for that!

Someone also broke a pod to prevent it from opening which was pretty impressive
