WWE Hall of Famer Mick Foley recently appeared as the next guest on fellow WWE Hall of Famer Austin’s Broken Skull Sessions podcast, where he revealed how for a long period of time he took offense in the fans only remembering him for his HIAC Match against WWE legend The Undertaker.
Mick Foley said:
“For the longest time I’m pretty sensitive that I’m only remember for that one thing.” “I realize all these years later, it really packs a punch, it’s take you on a ride all these years later. I’m getting legit goosebumps talking about something I did.”
Mick Foley then talked about his conversation with The Undertaker about their match and how fans will always talk about it as it is a special moment that will never be forgotten.
Mick Foley said:
“We start reminiscing and Taker looks at me — he still called me ‘Jack’ at the time, one of the last holdouts from my Cactus Jack days — ‘Jack, what you and I did that night will outlive us both. People will be talking about that match long after we’re gone.’” “It was almost like I feel this weight being lifted off my shoulders. Then I realized, wait a second, I wanted to make people feel the way I felt the night that I saw Snuka come off of that cage — and I’ve done it. And I’m too stubborn to realize it.”
“You know how many great workers there have been in our business who aren’t remembered for anything? It’s like, not only do I have this match, but the title change with The Rock. I got a few things and it no longer bothers me that I’m asked about that match every single day.”
