After seeing Foley on RAW the other night saying he was gonna be in the Rumble. I have a funny feeling he's gonna be #20 against the Undertaker this year at Mania.
Foley's account of that match is hilarious.
I believe he describes that second fall as being the best AND worst choke-slam in wrestling history.
It's the worst because he didn't go high at all for the lift; in fact, his one foot never even left the ground
(cage).But, it was also the best because of the impact the sequence had as a result of the cage giving way, which supposedly had little to do with him and Taker, and more to do with structural design.
Oddly enough, although that match earned him much respect from the WWF fans, it still didn't quite get him "over" with the fans.
That's when he reinvented his character as a comedic, lovable loser.
I think the sock is actually what got him over the most.
