cactus jack is back

[Terev316]

No matter how many times I watch this I get chills up my spine.

[DWJTX]

the street fight match is damn sick!

[johncenacenation100]

whats

the song

[Discipline888]

@johncenacenation100 O fortuna - Carl Orff this song alone gives goosebumbs

[bastlake]

aaagh, why can't someone post the full segment

[TripleR310]

Mick Foley=normal guy

Dude Love=peace

Mankind=poor soul

Cactus Jack=HARDCORE!

[hectordavidtorresh]

Im Cactus Jack

[KenFan4life]

did they really play this song during his speech?

idk... just seems a little retarded.

[kwh0810]

@KenFan4life no they didn't really play it, just added it in for the youtube video

[goth1agw1omw]

Royal Rumble 2000, first wrestling event I ever watched. That is how you get a 9 yr old interested in wrestling, and now they have Cena to attract young fans, really? If it does attract young fans, it's why older fans are bored. WWE can't keep going for new fans every 5 years, it makes sense to focus on existing fans before they go and don't let their kids watch it.

[Ockap1812]

I miss the attitude era :*(

[officialRomanrap]

i dont get it.is mick foley :mankind,cactus jack and dude love wtf why does he have so many names,?

[jspvenom]

@officialRomanrap How old are you? Did you just get into wrestling? I'm not hating, just wondering. Here's the answer to your question. Yes, mick Foley is all of those characters. He was Cactus Jack first, Mankind second, then Dude Love. Finally the WWE started using his real name, which I thought was very cool back then. He can become anyone of those "people" at any time, it makes for some great storylines. Hope that helps. That isn't the whole story behind it. look it up.

[hockeyplayingkid]

@jspvenom yeah im 15 years old i used to watch wrestling about 6 years ago and now i just want to look up a lil wrestling.so you could say that i dont know much anymore.thx for helpimg.

[kwh0810]

@hockeyplayingkid he just letting someone know the whole story, he never went and insulted someone he just wanted to let them know what was up

[ftown631]

HHH sells this so well.

[EelofWoW]

Love the dramatic music.

[briancurtiswalker]

I remember seeing that the first time and marking out so much.

[EllzFTW]

awesome promo

[strrb75]

lol i always wanted a cactus jack tee shirt

[nwo4lifedta316]

goosebumps

[NefariousVirtuoso88]

The street fight at the Royal Rumble was one of the best matches I have seen.

[DaVeej]

Triple H's face.

[Man98kind]

Greatest moment of my life when I saw that Cactus Jack shirt. I've seen Cactus Japanese Death match tournament, Barbwire rope matches, flaming steal chair, bed of nails thumbtack and broken glass all used to try and defeat Terry Funk. HHH was right to fear Cactus Jack. I got goosebumps to see Cactus back and the Street Fight was A-W-E-S-O-M-E!!!

[steveOo0o]

1:21 Never seen triple h pull such a :O face before xD

[SaintsnotSinners]

I still remember this like it was yesterday. I was a happy 14 year old :D.

[LilSnoopydawg]

i love the music in the background

[The2x4King]

I've always wondered how that guy at 1:28 with the Cactus Jack is back sign knew to bring it that night....

[majukun]

@The2x4King the signs are given at the fans at the entrance of the show,and anyways,"mankind" had given signs of turn into "cactus jack" in the previous show.

[shutupurgonnamakeit]

I'm from CT and Mick drove down yesterday from LI and I got to meet him. He gave us free autographs and we got a picture with him. We talked about his matches for a while, he's one of the nicest, coolest people I've ever met. When Mick wrestled it reminds me of the good ol days when wrestling was an event everytime it was on regardless if it was a payperview. I really miss those days.

[ox508]

@shutupurgonnamakeit thats weird i was there too

[shutupurgonnamakeit]

@ox508 Awesome!

[chincheek1]

Hard to belive its been 11 years makes me feel old.. i remember this so well!

[savvo1]

@chincheek1 yea i remember this one too...old as hell lol

[hbk92701]

I had only gotten into the WWF in the Summer of 1999, and when this happened, I had no idea who Cactus Jack was, but when Triple H made that face, I knew he was one crazy motherfucker.

[chincheek1]

@hbk92701 same time i got into it lol best time!

[Glixes]

1:21 Anybody else think triple H looks like Heath Slater?

[khungdien963]

he look like Edge

[awsome2088]

triple H : shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii­iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii­iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii­iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii­iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii­iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii­iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii­iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii...

[Darkestlord101]

Mick Foley and Triple H at there collective best. One of the best skits ever. I remember watching this live and I jumped out of my seat.

[Phoenix412T1iron]

bang bang?

[Bushboy65]

HHH sold the Hell out of Mankind turning to Cactus Jack

[danicheater1]

triphle h sieht aus wioe prinsen rolle

[Coolquip43]

Goosebumps.

[Moshuwa]

Was this the last time (while he was wrestling full time) that Mick appeared as Mankind?

[evilTaker90]

@Moshuwa Great point,I think it was the last time Mick was Mankind

[AJ36sXe]

@Moshuwa He retired as a full time wrestler as Cactus Jack. Then he went to TNA as Mick Foley, so yes. Though, he competed at Taboo Tuesday 05 as Mankind.

[Stryker1501]

I've been lookin at the history of cactus jack, and those who want to say that he isn't dedicated or isn't ever in real danger, You're a full fledged idiot and need to learn a bit, just watch some ecw or his Japan matches, you'll learn really quick to shut up.

[Allannon500]

@Stryker1501 Got that right man. He is a hardcore icon. I just wish he could have won the WWF title as Cactus Jack if only for awhile, and then he could have lost it. Then when someone tried to say they were hardcore, and Mick came to prove them wrong Mick always got beat which I thought was so stupid. Stupid WWF/WWE never gave Cactus Jack the break that ECW and Japan gave him.

[DeadmanInc336]

@Allannon500

That's the kind of guy that Foley is. He's always been a very humble and selfless person and he was always more concerned about making sure that the other guys gets over than his own success. There are a'lot of icons in pro-wrestling that are actually complete douchebags in real life like Ric Flair, Kevin Nash, Randy Orton, and even Dave Roidtista. But Mick is one of those guys who is very genuine and absolutely lovable in and out of the ring.

[Allannon500]

@DeadmanInc336 I've heard that about Mick, but I haven't had the chance to meet him. Until you meet the person you never really know who they are outside the ring.

[MrDanials1]

I was there watching Smackdown on television at that time when this happened. The dude with the barbed wire.

[CapTashman]

They may not like each other but DAMN did they work well together. HHH could've killed that moment by not selling the return on Cactus Jack but he nailed it!

[bgnedz]

Goosebumps...

[elfidox2]

i had royal rumble 2000 on vhs as a kid. man that fucking match was EPIC!!!!!!!!

[Allannon500]

@elfidox2 Sure was. Wish Cactus Jack could have won the title.

[3oTooLe]

@elfidox2 i had it too, stayed up late to record it onto tape. fuck me that was a long time ago

[marcopaulo037]

@elfidox2 that whole ppv was epic...the good old days

[BizzyBoney1]

1:21  SAY WHATT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[DJDel1034]

Thumbs up if you like cactus jack better than mankind

[mercifulkyle]

@DJDel1034 That is so hard for me to decide...a tie would suffice right?

[Yomommasan2]

Triple H and Stephanie disliked this video.

[iLiKeToRaWr8D]

thats mankind you idot

[XcoolzX17]

triple face = 50% epic background music = 50%

[still1995]

cactus jack is a true legend. he always gave me a hrd time in smackdown know your role on ps2.

[29nickoli]

Cactus Jack the craziest most dangerous persona of mick Foley

[JasonL77]

I remember watching this and when I first heard Foley say "substitute", I thought to myself "Yes, he's bringing back Cactus Jack."

[eugene680]

Funny how Mankind got " someone else" to wreslte in his place. It's really funny when it's the same guy but different gimmick/personality.

[wanderlustwarrior]

One thing's for certain. Triple H is *NOT* gonna have a nice day.

[CrissTrainz]

Oh my god, what a pop ! Classic shit

[maddogmack87]

@FrozenUtility cactus jack was the crazy, fearless outlaw persona. old school wcw.

[MrSinister1979]

@RealPerfectionDZ That's three more than Cena ;)

[gallespaul]

That's one of the best enters i've ever seen in my entire fucking life.

[kisos007]

foley is god

[applecorevideo]

probably my favorite moment in all of wrestling

[legondofkane]

who was the fake mankind in the ring?

[TherealRNO]

@legondofkane: Mideon aka Dennis Knight.

[MorbidBullet]

We need more guys like Foley. Not super buff or handsome, but can cut a god damned promo and wrestle like their life is on the line (like it often was with Foley).

[Scoot826]

foley:Takes mask off

triple H: doesent care

foley: takes shirt off

triple h: SHIT!

[Staraptorman]

Mick Foley is so great at giving promos. I love him.

[niceguytim]

The best promo man ever.

[zboorie]

They took his job!?!?!

[DeathEgg666]

@zboorie

They took his job?

DERKA DERR!

[zboorie]

@DeathEgg666 ER DERDERDER DER!!!!!! (Rooster crow)

[RKsolid5586]

@FrozenUtility an outlaw

[MyTime127]

mankind was the best character...Not the brown clothes..the white shirt and mask. Mr. Sockoooooo

[lordfinchness]

@MyTime127 Mick Foley: HEY !! So basically for my signature move I'm goin to take a sock off my cock and ram it down my opponents throat!! what d'ya think? Producers: WE FUCKING LOVE IT!!!

[TRIGMASTER06]

Anyone know where the full segment of this is? or if it is even on here to watch lol.

[ramiabdo2]

in my openion cactus jack was the best character for mick foley!! SECOND TO NONE

[FWQR3T]

@ramiabdo2 agreed

[Fuckdisworld93]

practically the most entertaining fearless wrestler i know

[k956upg]

just love cactus jack

[omen2240]

he should have turned into EV2.0 mick foley

[ifoundululz]

He should have turned into Dude Love

[nightphilips]

The look on Triple H's face was pricelessss

[stigler30]

I love how all four of Mick Foleys characters, himself, Mankind, Cactus Jack and Dude Love are acknowledged as the same person in kayfabe. Kayfabe never acknowledges characters like Kanes previous persona's or that Triple H was once Hunter Hearst Helmsey .

[Bazzer239]

@stigler30 - You're right in the fact that they don't reference Kane's but they have referenced Triple H a few times, certainly as Hunter Heart Hemsley, but not the upclass character he was. I guess they have too b/c its in his name...

[parkerisking]

i must have wathed this about 20 times in various formats buts it still has one hell of an impact

[TheGlenquagmire21]

Triple H's Face At 1:21 Is Priceless Haha

[aphatpanda13]

this clip gives me chills everytime...

[MrJamesr333]

i really do absolutely HAVE TO KNOW what the music in the background was please please please somebody

[ramma77]

@MrJamesr333

o fortuna from Carmina burana by Carl orff

[MrJamesr333]

@ramma77 thankyou so much ive wanted to know who this music was by since i was about 6 years old!

[bertboxer1]

@MrJamesr333 o fortuna, the beginning of carl orf's carmina burana

[SketchyBadger]

i remember watching this when i was a young bull, just fucking epic moment in smackdown history

[realityeaters]

BANG BANG!!!!!!!!

[TRIGMASTER06]

I am begging anyone who knows where i can find this full segment it was brilliant.

[Sean19a7x2]

@TRIGMASTER06 Go to xtremewrestlingtorrents(dot)ne­t and there you can find all the Raws/Smackdowns/PPVs from this year.

[Sean19a7x2]

@TRIGMASTER06 And any other year :D

[incognegro88]

LITERALLY GOT CHILLS AT 1:16!!! BANG BANG BITCHES!!

[Desperadounico]

Cactus Jack was my favorite of allthree.

[Moredread25]

Nice - no dislikes. Also, I love the carmina burana added in the backround.

[JesterSpaz182]

Mick Foley, promo master

[whatthehellvideos]

triple h sold the shit outta that

[calico666]

@whatthehellvideos Yeah, kind of rams it down the throats of those who claim he has no legitimate talent. Fact is that they were all so good back then because they had each other to play off.

[D0ntTaseM3Br0]

@whatthehellvideos Yes he did.

[den20dgo]

can someone tell me whats the difference between cactus jack and mankind, hell it's the same wrestler!?

[firemoder]

@den20dgo Mankind = Crazy schizo persona

Cactus = Hardcore persona

[calico666]

@den20dgo Yeah, two different persona's as firemoder said. Basically, you would have to seen him during his Cactus Jack stage earlier on to understand.

[rossthebassmonster]

@den20dgo, cactus jack was the wrestler that wrestled in barbed wire, exploding mines, bed if nails, and fire poker matches.

mankind, pretty much the diet coke of cactus.

so the revalation that he was gonna wrestle as cactus jack was ment to show that foley was pissed and bringing out the big guns.

[StanKingston420]

@den20dgo Cactus Jack Competed More in his DeathMatches in Japan while Mankind was Crazy but he worked mostly non barbed Wire matches but Traditional one one Matches with the Rings Ropes still up. Yeah its Crazy.

[joetri10]

@den20dgo You got me tbh xD

[Kevbro180]

Attitude Era 4 Life!!!!

[mistamadscientist]

1:21 "OH SHIT IM FUCKED!!!" loool

[holteendhero1984]

BANG BANG!!!

[justiner591]

triple h's face was priceless

[darthbanesithlord]

[dudster9867]

1:21 hhh is like, oshitoshitohistoshitimgunnadie

[TheKliqRules]

Goosebumps Anybody ??

[frank22amaya]

i had no idea who cactus jack was but when saw this i was hooked

[matthewsfeatures]

the crowd reaction, the acting of mick foley, the reaction on the face of triple h, priceless. it was incredible back then

[facebookidiot]

poor mankind

[97432561]

this made triple h shit his pants.lol

[photonicus]

Mankind was crazy in a lovable way,but Cactus Jack was a complete psychopath...and the most ruthless of Foley's personas.

[peeontree69]

he came back that night in st.louis but was when cameras went off i was at that show

[sdmf1025]

@peeontree69 I was as well, amazing stuff. I was definitely hoarse the next day heh.

[Blackburn35]

A classic moment no doubt, and some people still think that Foley was just a glorified stuntman? A true all-round performer, great stuff.

[GreatGarloo]

BANG! BANG!

[lilkinney2q]

OMG WHO IS THIS GUY CACTUS JACK ? MANKIND? OR DUDE LOVE?

[Rey3Mysterio8]

@lilkinney2q Mick Foley.

[loonyboyhatch]

i got chills the first time i seen this on smackdown

[SoAndChobe]

i have shivers going down my spine watching this and its ten years old ffs!!!!

[dbzbiggestfan1995]

mick foleys power level is over 9000!!!

[ImaginaryBob101]

@dbzbiggestfan1995  Damn straight

[johnnytable2]

@dbzbiggestfan1995 And Cactus Jacks is 25,000, Mandkin 15,000, Mick is 9000, and Dude Love is 5000

[evilmm80]

Triple H looked like he pissed himself.

[SketchyBadger]

BANG! BANG!!

[ihatehaircuts1]

lol, triple h looks like he didn't have a clue that they were the same person :P

[labelyorself589]

how could mick foley play 3, or 4 different characters at the same... time thats pretty cool.

[gvnny17mntz]

just watch cactus jack vs triple h royal rumble 2000 and then you'll know why he looked scared.

[DarthRevan1051]

SUCK IT CENA this is how a promo should be!

[TmSwyer]

Mick Foley is the only wrestler who can get that loud of a pop just by announcing that he's switching gimmicks.

[cousincrackers]

he terk his jerb!!

[dgenerate707]

@cousincrackers they took his Jurb

[XPac894]

@dgenerate707 Derrk err Durr

[SoAndChobe]

@dgenerate707 jerb?

[dustysnoop]

[LivingGiant]

Cactus Jack, Dude Love, Mankind, Mick Foley is GOD!

[smokestorm88]

i remember watching this

[moyerman2000]

um why did hhh look scared

[SuperColleged]

@moyerman2000 Please tell u like 12 now and wasnt around for the sickest era in not fuckin gay wwe, but WWF cuz thats a stupid ass question. Its Cactus Jack!!!!

[ramma77]

@moyerman2000

Because at the time Cactus jack was the most sadistic son of a bitch to ever get in the ring. 

[ihatehaircuts1]

0:35

first time i thought he said

'without a doubt, you are the gay'

[ChiTownWarrior1]

Triple H's face when he see Cactus Jack will always be the most memorable part in this video for me.

[rikardoss]

one of the best moments in my life

[naraicks]

goosebumbs actual goosebumbs

[msta1689]

this was such an awesome moment. the music is makes it just that little better

[johnlucas1]

Now THAT'S what you call a Mark Out moment!

[HoodsDream]

Damn this brings back so many good memories. I remember watching this when I was a little kid and I was going crazy that cactus jack was back for royal rumble 2000 omg this show definitely had some sick writers back in the day. It will never be this good again.

[axeraider933]

+hes the only person who could pull off 4 gimicks

[1992Bonzo]

Mick Foley Is Hardcore
