Mick Foley was awesome at the 2009 TNA Slammiversary World Heavyweight Title King Of The Mountain Match.

Guy who makes it harder for others get over because he was too violent and took too much risk. Now wrestlers have to put themselves at greater danger and the fans believe it less. Typical ECW business destroying mentality.
Bang bang. |

He was the best fall-off-stuff-into-other-stuff-er ever.

"That will put some butts in the seats." His feud vs The Rock really put the WWE over WCW ratings wise. I don't think WCW won after that night? Am I right? I will also remember Foley for brniging the best out of his opponents. If Foley was on the card I knew there was going to be at least one entertaining match. Maybe not 5 stars but entertaining.

Foley had his biggest success when he toned his stuff down and introduced Mr Socko, his hardcore stuff isn't that extreme compared to what a lot of other guys of that era were doing he just knew how to make it work better. Hell he wasn't even the most violent guy in ECW, a place he's remembered more for promos than matches.

First of all, he'll definitely be remembered as a guy who put his body on the line for the fans, and for the business in general.
He'll also go down as a guy who loved the business and didn't care what he had to do in order to "make it", he had no boundaries. Not the greatest technical, pure wrestler in the world, but had his own style and made it work. He gave his all, and in turn, the fans decided he should be one of the top guys by reacting favorably to his work (even if it meant booing him when he was a heel, a reaction is a reaction). |

Well, not now. But back when he was "Mankind", and then "Dude Love" back in '98.

Fuck, this was probably my best thread ever, and I'm not sure I have the patience anymore to put my mind to it. I might do another sign up thread, as I do kinda have another person in mind though.

I'll start a thread and get people to name their top 10 superstars of all time, and go from there.

Why don't you just have a personality of your own and go as you please instead of waiting to make a thread about a thread your gonna make.

GOAT man. TRUE wrestling is about how many body parts you can lose.

That didnt come out right- he was a hardcore legend and deserves alot of credit for the boom in the Attitude Era but personally I will remember the ridiculous comedy... loved the commissioner role and messing around with E and C
