There are too many Mick Foley Matches out there and I know that I left off numerous ones from his feuds with Terry Funk, add them if you wish. I think I also have a good cross-Section of the Faces of Foley.

RVDgurl · Sep 28, 2007

Ah, another hardcore legend! Good choice. Mankind and Dude Love were ok, but I'm in love with old school Cactus Jack. He had some great matches in ECW and on the Indy scene. My favorite match being Cactus v. Sabu. What a great old fashion hardcore match. Cactus came in from WCW to put over Sabu as the new generation of hardcore. Great moment and I have all the respect in the world for Foley for putting over Sabu at a time where he was still considered the king of hardcore.

Shadowmancer · Sep 28, 2007

I could only find one of Micks King of the Deathmatch tournament win. That is the Terry Gordy match. I would love to put in the other ones but I can't find them. I apologise for the crap version of the Mind Games match in there, it was the only one I could find. But I feel you can all understand why I only put up this reduced number of matches as there are 36 matches there and then you have the promos as well. that is a lot to watch.

P.S. 1500th post.

Y 2 Jake · Sep 29, 2007

Glad the KOTDM matces are missing. There fucking awful. Garbage wrestling at it's worst. It's a shame that Mick Foley is known for them.

Great choice. I always thought Dude Love was the best of his gimmicks. It's harder to make a truly creepy gimmick that it is a deranged one. Foley pulled it off well.

BooCocky · Sep 29, 2007

Honestly this is a very good choice because i loved all of his gimmicks and he pulled them all off very well. Like Jake i also do believe i loved his Dude Love gimmick the best because all his other gimmicks were like Hardcore and his dude love one was just awkward, and wasnt a so called freak like Mankind and Cactus Jack. He was a hardcore legend and possibly the best in that regards, he IMO had those great Mic skills and was able to cut a promo like no other, well better than most. Anyways another good choice here because its great watching him get destroyed and brutally beaten.

Y 2 Jake · Oct 6, 2007

I really wish Kash wasn't such a dick. He has the talent and charisma to go far. Unfortunatley he never will because he doesn't know when to keep his mouth shut and just get on with his job. He would have had multiple tag and cruiser title reigns by now if he knew how to behave.

Shocky · Oct 6, 2007

Ya, the attitude of this guys sucks, but there is no denying the talent that he possesses. I haven't seen too much of Kash on the indy's to make a fair evaluation of him, but I liked his early TNA stuff. the WWE never used him right, so I fail to make an opinion on any cruiserweight during their WWE tenures.

Where is Kash wrestling now anyways?

Y 2 Jake · Oct 6, 2007

He's wrestling wherever he wants. He's walking the earth entertaining simple minded wrestling fans. And he's doing it lazily. No wonder WWE aren't intrested in signing him. The last few matches I've looked up of him have been really sloppy.

Slim Pickns · Oct 11, 2007

Great pick.

Curt is the greatest Intercontinetal Champion of all time. His charisma and technical ability was unmatched. I love his matches from Summerslam and KOTR with Bret Hart, they are two of my all time favorite matches.

I am from Minnesota so my opinion might be biased but I think Henning is a top 15 all time performer. He literally owned the IC belt for some time.

BooCocky · Oct 11, 2007

This is a great pick. Curt Hennig is one of my all time favorite wrestlers, his in ring ability and charisma was matched by no one. Like what the person above me said he could possibly the greatest IC champion ever. He could be possibly one of the most charismatic and technically sound wrestlers to ever lace up a pair of boots. I have enjoyed most of his matches i loved his matches with Flair and Dean Malenko, Hennig could get a good match out of most people quite frankly Hennig was "Perfect"

Shocky · Oct 11, 2007

How can you not love Mr. Perfect. It's just a shame that so many of these guys I grew up watching and idolizing are no longer here. You get the feeling after watching Bret's DVD that this death really really shook him to the core.

The guy was so cocky and arrogant, even as a heel, you liked him. The vignettes with him are still some of the best ever to hype up a wrestler. Hennig was also damn good on a microphone and as an announcer.

One of the things I remember most, was just how good he was pissing off Hulk Hogan. That was amazing to watch him destroy the WWF championship when he stole it.

I could go on and on about Curt. The guy was just great all around, and it really really sucks that he isn't here anymore. I think the guy probably could still perform today, and who knows, he may have eventually gotten a world title run in the WWE that he so richly deserved.

Skullz Crack'Em · Oct 14, 2007

Perfect choice Shadowmancer lol. Curt Hennig is one of the top candidates that deserved a WWE/F World title run, but didn't get one(at least he was AWA World Champion). He was one of the few guys in the wrestling business that had great in-ring ability and great charisma and mic skills. The wrestler that is the closest to being a modern day Mr. Perfect has to be Kurt Angle(Kurt and Curt lol), he also has the ring skills and charisma, but unlike Hennig, Angle is recognized has a main eventer and has obviously won numerous World Championships in his Career thus far. That makes me think about if Hennig was alive today and was a bit younger, would he have similar accomplishments as Angle? It is a shame that he passed away, he could have been still wrestling today or even helping the younger guys in the business by giving advice and help training them.

RVDgurl · Oct 15, 2007

Mr. Perfect. Now there was a great wrestler. I firmly believe that no one else would have been able to play the Mr. Perfect character as well as Curt Hennig did. He was nearly flawless in the ring and he was gold on the mic. He had some of the best facial expressions in the ring. And I must say, the he had hands down the best little vignettes that have ever been made- Who else can throw a touchdown pass to himself? Now that's perfect.

Another ECW boy, good pick Shadow. I always loved the FBI- all of the combinations were good. I personally loved the combination of Guido and Smothers. Absolute comedy. Guido had a very good presence in the ring, interacted well with the crowd and played his character well.

IrishCanadian25 · Oct 20, 2007

I sure wish I could speak more on him. I wasn't a big ECW guy when he was a mainstay there, and when I've known him he's annoyed me. I thought Big Vito did the Italian stereotype in WCW far better than this guy did. Overall, I think he belongs on the best jobber poll.

Slim Pickns · Oct 25, 2007

Great pick. No one expected him to take the IC title yet alone have the longest reign ever. That reign was historic despite the way he lost it.

Whats with that sign getting snagged? I don't understand why they had to take it.

Y 2 Jake · Oct 26, 2007

I think Honky is one of the most entertaining wrestlers of all time. When he's doing media interviews.

As a wrestler though he sucked. Fuckin' terrible. I loved him with Jimmy Hart though. There selling of Beefcake cutting Harts hair is brilliant.

I've always been on the fence as to weather The Warrior defeating himeasily was a good thing or bad thing.

IrishCanadian25 · Oct 26, 2007

Cheesy Elvis character, but this man translated it into one of the best heels ever. He wasn't evil, just obnoxious. And Jimmy Hart was the perfect manager for him.

Jake's right about the reign, I am also on the fence about a two-minute match after the (still) longest IC Title reign of all time. I have to check, but I wonder if you take the Texas Tornado hiccup out of Mr. Perfect's reign and The Marty Jannetty incident out of Shawn Michaels', is HTM still the longest ever?

I loved him wth Greg Valentine and thought Rhythm and Blues was a fun tag team.

Oh shit! I almost forgot about Rhythym & Blues! Now that was a comedy tag team. They were entertaining as hell, which proves the value of HTM since Greg Valentine was a little on the boring side.

HTM was one of my favorite wrestlers as a child. He was so over the top and so obnoxious that people had to pay attention. He demanded heat regardless of his skills in the ring.

justinsayne · Nov 2, 2007

Alright Shadow, great choice, Slaughter was great especially in his heel run in the early 90's, he was one of the most over heels in the history of WWE if I remember right, and he's the only wrestler that I have ever met, though briefly, I can say that I did indeed meet the guy, and he seemed like pretty good guy, I'm looking forward to watching the matches, again great choice, can't wait to see who you pick next week
