Mick Foley has DiD (aka Split Personality) for all his personas. That's why he can be friends with JR, Rock, & SCSA one second and be at odds with them the next.
This in its original form on TV at the time was split into 4 parts.
It instantly gave credibility to the Mankind character, and bridged the gap between his Cactus Jack fans and the new fans and new exposure he had in WWF at the time.
Unfortunately this edit is missing my favorite quote.
"I thought I told you I don't believe in doctors, if there was something wrong with my mind, I'd be the first to know."
so sad you know, foley had a dream to be like shawn but ppl made fun of him and outcasted him but now he's the freaking hardcore legend and none of those prettyboy wrestlers can call themselves that... FOLEY FOLEY FOLEY
The cool thing about Foley's 3 gimmicks, is, unlike guys like Kane and Festus, who've been reused for various characters, Foley's gimmicks acually make up ONE character.
two words: FUCKING AMAZING. The wwe cannot and/or will not ever have another mick foley personality. Easily one of the best in anyone's book. I wish the wwe would bring up more talent like they did back in those days.
I know, right? And just a couple weeks ago, it was FOLEY who was on the receiving end of an assault by another deranged wrestler, who coincidentally is also feuding with the Undertaker.
it is a true story about him, but he overstates it. For example, he didn't eat a big worm like he said on part 1, he only ate a little one. but it is a true story about him, you can hear about his real childhood at three faces of Foley.
I'm gonna make a guess here, I'm not certain of this, but if you agree, you can back me up:
I think it was interviews like this that convinced Vince McMahon that his wrestling product could be a hell of a lot more entertaining if his performers' characters were less outrageous "gimmicks" and more of an extension of their real personalities. (Foley's real background was certainly more interesting than Mankind's fictional one.)
The "Attitude" era would begin not long after this. Coincidence?
Same...I don't think Mick was a fan of it as much as Cactus or Mankind. Mankind was the most entertaining I think. The only things that made Cactus Jack as great was his feuds with Triple H and Terry Funk. Basically, anything outside of WWE as Cactus was great. Triple H was the only decent Cactus Jack feud he had in WWE.
