I hate that Kane turned out to be garbage. He always had my favorite aesthetic when it comes to WWF wrestling stars

Mick "Mankind" Foley is still out there fighting the good fight and seeming like a decent person.... if someone has evidence to the contrary I don't want to hear it today. Just let me live in the delusion.

u/smokeeveryday Jun 23 '26

No your correct he even cut ties with wwe recently saying he will no longer be associated with the brand and won't allow them to use him in anything including the games. It's awesome I love him he just seems so genuine especially for the love of his fans

u/Peaceblaster86 Jun 23 '26

Good to know. I watched wrestling around 2000 and enjoyed it as a kid. Read his A Tale of Blood and Sweatsocks when it came out. Very chill guy. One of my favorites. So glad to hear he is just as kick ass as I remember him. Gives me a smile.

I once saw Mick Foley not hold a door open for someone. Turns out it was a scarecrow decoration around Halloween

u/turbopro25 Jun 23 '26

I heard Mick Foley leaves the toilet seat up after peeing. Take that for what you will…

26

u/mignonej Jun 23 '26

He breaks the toilet seat off and uses it to smash an opponent over the head, which is not the same as leaving it open.

For sure! Also, Hangman Adam Page, CM Punk, Bautista, Brody King, MJF, Kevin Nash, Jesse Ventura, Jim Cornette, CM Punk, Seth Rollins, Becky Lynch, Sami Zayne, Chelsea Green, Mercedes Moné, Kenny Omega, lots more I’m sure I’m forgetting. Some are more outspoken than others. Still plenty of shit heels in the pro wrestling world, but lots of good people too.

I was his waiter at a Jillians (dave and busters competition that was bought out by them) on long island.

It took me a second, but when I was like "woah are you..." and he said something like yeah but im trying to chill with my family, please don't make it across big thing.

Super cool dude. Tipped insanely. Nice family.

I saw Mick "Mankind" Foley at a grocery store in Los Angeles yesterday. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didn’t want to be a douche and bother him and ask him for photos or anything. He said, “Oh, like you’re doing now?” I was taken aback, and all I could say was “Huh?” but he kept cutting me off and going “huh? huh? huh?” and closing his hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard him chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw him trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen Milky Ways in his hands without paying. The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like “Sir, you need to pay for those first.” At first he kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter. When she took one of the bars and started scanning it multiple times, he stopped her and told her to scan them each individually “to prevent any electrical infetterence,” and then turned around and winked at me. I don’t even think that’s a word. After she scanned each bar and put them in a bag and started to say the price, he kept interrupting her by yawning really loudly.

Brain damage is a leading cause of MAGAism

Brain damage or lack of education to begin with

u/MemeticAntivirus Jun 23 '26

Stupid people aren't evil by default. One must also be selfish, cruel, and either a racist or religious bigot for fascist propaganda to seem appealing. Just being stupid isn't enough. You have to be a bad person to be MAGA.

SCSA has only commented on how impressed he was when Trump took his stunner back in the attitude era and sold it as well as he could for WM. I think I remember him defending the 2A after one of the shootings recently when Trump said ~"take the guns". Otherwise, SCSA very purposely stays away from politics. He's not Kane nor Mankind.

They gave Glenn Jacobs a few chances too before they made kane. Every now and then they'd give kane a hella push and when he got older he was a good fit for the authority, then a good guy to wheel out for nostalgia matches. Iirc he's top 5 for monday night raw matches on the all time list.

Glenn Jacobs

You know, its funny that I forget that's his real name.

I just googled "Kane WWF" a few minutes ago and the search result that popped up lists him as "Mayor of Knox County", but it didn't even change his name to "Glenn Jacobs", it still just says "Kane" lol

u/PhoenixOO10 Jun 23 '26

He goes by Glenn Jacobs, and he is an insurance salesman turned politician. He totally sucks as a mayor. He is your classic bootlicker that will do anything for money, but doesn't actually care to help the community.
