Do I think Foley is a better "performer" than Vader? Hell yes. Do I think Foley is a better "wrestler" than Vader? Absolutely not. Foley was just in the right place at the right time in the attitude era where his particular style shined. Justifying this would be flashing back to the early 90's when Foley and Vader both wrestled in WCW. Vader was the champ, a believeable one and was headlining PPV's with Flair and Sting. Yes Vader and Foley feuded in WCW, but Vader clearly shined by ripping Foley's ear off and powerbombing him on concrete. I know I have got to be making some sense here. |

Why are we still talking about Vader anyway? He lost. He's a LOSER. Let's talk about winners.

Ok I was wrong, Vader threw Foley into the ropes, his head got caught between the top two ropes and severed his ear.

CWK, the story is Foley was supposed to a hangman spot where he gets his head trapped in the ropes. That requires the ring ropes to be looser than normal. Unknown by Foley and Vader, the ring crew had tightened the ropes before the show so they were too tight. Foley still did the spot and tore his ear off trying to get free.

What happened to his ear?
March 16, 1994: Munich, Germany. In a match against the WCW champ, Big Van Vader, Cactus Jack gets his head tied up between the top and middle ring ropes. Accidentally, Cactus slipped out of the ropes. The tension in the tightened ring ropes was enough to tear his right ear completely off and badly tear his left ear. Part of the right ear was iced and saved. The left required 12 stitches. He continued the match for two more minutes before the planned ending (he lost by pinfall). Vader punched Cactus many times in the side of his head, until his ear just fell off. The referee picked the ear up and gave it to a ring attendant. Cactus was in good spirits afterwards with little damage to his hearing and some trouble with his balance. Cactus returned to the ring April 17, 1994. Reports were that Cactus was planning to take a few months time off to have reconstructive surgery on the ear, but it never happened. To date, he has shown no hearing problems or other ill effects. Only one other wrestler has had their ear ripped off in a match (Yukon Eric against Killer Kowalski). In an ECW interview, Cactus said he woke up in a hospital bed in Munich, German and saw his severed ear laying in a trashcan, while a nurse said "Is this a joke?" Sorry, it really happened. Here's a picture. The entire incident is available on videotape |

Mick Foley lost his ear to the famous wrestling rope trick known as the "hang man" if I'm not mistaken. Too Cold Scorpio had complained about the ropes being too loose earlier in the night so they tightened them. When Foley went for the hangman (Where your head is stuck between the two ropes to make it look like you're actually hanging) the tightness of the ropes almost popped his fucking head off. He kept his head but lost an ear.

Vader's style is impetuous. His defense is impregnable.
