Character from WWE by WWE / TKO Group
The Hardcore Legend — a man of three faces who threw his body off cages and through tables not because he had to, but because he wanted you to remember his name.
Have a nice day! Mick Foley is professional wrestling's patron saint of suffering — a man who gave his body to the sport in ways that still seem impossible in retrospect. As Mankind, as Cactus Jack, as Dude Love, Foley wore three faces and used each one to tell a different kind of story. His Hell in a Cell match against The Undertaker at King of the Ring 1998 — thrown from the top of the cage, then through it — is the single most replicated clip in wrestling history. A three-time WWE Champion, Foley proved that you didn't have to look like a superstar to be one. His sock puppet Socko. His Mrs. Foley's baby boy promos. His legitimate intellectual depth off-camera. Mick Foley is the real thing wearing a mask.
Flannel shirt over ring gear, unkempt hair and beard, one ear partially missing from a German rope incident — Foley's appearance is the antithesis of wrestling glamour and entirely the point. As Mankind: a leather mask and straitjacket, grotesque and compelling. As Cactus Jack: a flannel-clad brawler from the deepest Texas dive bars.
