[Seth82]

Number 4 is my favorite

His WWF Cactus theme from the attitude era

Even tho Steppenwolf does rock...

[James Steele]

I love his Cactus Jack theme from the WWF, but Wreck is the song I associate with Mick Foley and it really works.

[DAMN iNATOR]

Wreck, because the footage in that vid clearly shows that back when he fought Orton in '06 or '07 I believe (maybe '05, I'll have to YouTube or wiki it...), he could still put on one hell of a hardcore match for the fans. Hell even his Hardcore Match with Edge at WM 22 kicked ass.

[mike adamle]

I wish the schizophrenic remix was on this, that one was the best

[Xero]

I debated it and came to the conclusion that it wasn't used enough to include it.

I wanted to, though. It's my favorite Foley theme.

[KYR]

Has to be Wreck for me. Part of my favourite period in wrestling history.

[mike adamle]

Yeah, that's true, they did only use it for like a month at most. Since you didn't put it I went with his first WWE theme, the early Mankind was my favorite Mick Foley persona, so it was a given.

[The Pope]

All of 'em except born to be wild

[Lock Jaw]

Schizophrenic for me. Amazing song. Plus having a different song when he left was genius.

[Exyle]

Voted Schizophrenic, and though it is not the best, kudos to TNA. They really did a good job with his theme, as well (and the video is excellent with the smiley face getting happier as it gets bloodier).

[Dorkchop]

Wreck. That theme just oozes face Mankind/Foley. I wonder if it's one of those themes James or Jim Johnson made specifically for Foley or if was just a theme he made and was given to Foley. I know Austin's theme was made specifically for him so there's a good chance Foley's Wreck theme was made for him.

[Dorkchop]

Cactus (WWF/E) and Dude Love's theme are both pretty sweet.

[RatedGSuperstar]

Wreck was good, but Schizophrenic was absolutely perfect for the original Mankind character.

[road doggy dogg]

Wreck was the best. That time there, Mankind was my favourite wrestler and that theme just made me think of him every time. I don't even care if it was just like one riff over and over. Heard it and "marked out".
crossrine

[TSI]

yeah its hard when you hear wreck and not to think about foley....thats my vote

[Jannettyzilla]

The Cactus Jack and Wreck themes are two of my favorite lyric-less themes ever. I went with Wreck, because - like others said - it's just more associated with Foley to me.

[Kane Knight]

He had a lot of good ones, but I voted "wreck."

Denny Crane.

[midLfinger]

Wreck, because the footage in that vid clearly shows that back when he fought Orton in '06 or '07 I believe (maybe '05, I'll have to YouTube or wiki it...), he could still put on one hell of a hardcore match for the fans. Hell even his Hardcore Match with Edge at WM 22 kicked ass.

'04

[Dave Youell]

Wreck, it's simple basic and raw. But at the same time lovable and catchy, much like Mickles

The TNA one is growing on me though

[James Steele]

'04

Backlash in April 2004 to be exact

[Droford]

Dude Love!

[The Mackem]

Cactus Jack WWF

[screech]

Cactus Jack WWF for me. It was tough because Wrecked is the song I most associate with him and with probably my favorite period in wrestling.

That Cactus song has always been a favorite, though.

[Chavo Classic]

WWF Cactus Jack theme. The opening riff is awesome

[Triple Naitch]

Dude Love is by far the catchiest. Bit Mankind's exit theme is spectacular.

[DaVe]

Yep, Mankind's exit theme should've been on the list. It was tremendous idea and just fit the character so well.

[TheHaunted]

I loved Wreck, so...Wreck

[Savio]

If we were voting for worst I'd go with Bang Bang

[DAMN iNATOR]

Can't wait to see who #5 will be.:D
