I loved Mick since I was 8 years old and I am 40 now!
Clearly one of the greatest!
Shit he was cool when I was 7. I’m 30
Mick Foley - I've had a million concussions
Also Foley... remembers the exact date of every match in the last 25 years
Who else would love to see a docu-series following Mick & Austin's rise to the top?
@PaPa Shango mic would never, you're tripping
there is a dvd called the early years with austin and mick double disc
Can never get enough Austin or Foley documentaries!!
I can listen to this guy talk for days. All those insane bumps he took so he didnt stink up the joint, it makes my day now on the outside getting all the stories from outside the ring.
Thank you Mick! You made millions of people including myself to be inspired by your life/work ethic! Have a nice day!
Kane vs. Austin in a first blood match wasn’t a goof. It was a part of the story that Kane’s face was covered up. He even wore a special version of his suit that night with two sleeves instead of the usual single sleeve, so that every part of him was completely protected. This was to stack the deck against Austin even more (remember Kane was an instrument of McMahon at the time).
I still think a Last Man Standing match would've been better.
He didn't say it was a goof. He said the concept was stupid overall
@@msoileau83 And I explained why it wasn’t. He’s forgetting there was a story reason for it.
The fans were PISSED that night when Austin lost the title. Pretty shocking they did that right in the middle of Austin's first title run and arguably the height of his popularity. Still, they made it right the next night when he won the title back.
@@taffysaur Having a story doesn't automatically make something not stupid. If there was ever an angle you didn't like there was probably a story behind it, right? That said, it is highly opinion based so if you liked it then cool but Mick wasn't a fan.
Im a huge Austin fan. Nr 1 by a long shot. But if i ever were to meet one of my heroes for a chat i think Foley is my guy. I love Mick and i think he really is a down to earth guy that i could talk and listen to for hours.
Agreed
I love when Mick talks about being scared to bomb vs trying to go for it. In sports psychology is called approaching success vs avoiding failure and makes a HUGE difference in athletes. Especially ones that have any sort of performance anxiety, or other mental health issues
I found an original copy of "Beyond the mat" the other day at a thrift store, still has the single page insert inside and everything. It's gonna go great with my 4 faces of Foley pop set and lunchbox. Now I just need a good mask.
I think I left mine there ..... Go and ASK YOUR WIFE :-D
One of the few VHS tapes I still keep around haha
@@scottdecowski4913 Yeah .... Right. ... Maybe one of the few .... NON-PORN !!
This has become one of my favorite podcasts... While im behind on a few others i always keep up with this show. Very entertaining
Good Shit Pal
Foley is the man, love his attitude, aura, stories, viewpoint, and life experiences are one of a kind!
Two of my All Time FAVORITE Wrestlers!!! Both have the best "runs" and matches in the industry!!! Sooo many firsts done by Foley an Austin!
I didn't even know my childhood hero had a podcast until just now.
Get with the progrum kid!
Love this podcast, it's a weekly tune in on fridays, cant miss it, keep up the superd work mr Foley
To whoever designs the thumbnails for Mr. Foley's podcast, salute. Creative and eye-catching.
Agreed! This one especially kicks ass!
Everyone thinks Foley's best "fire and ice" pairing was Rock and Sock with The Rock. To me, I think it was his tag team pairing and on screen work with Austin. It gave us Dude Love for God sakes; plus it had Foley as a heel and baby face.
Mikey Whipwreck, Raven say hi.
Pick me steve!
Hey. Shut up man.
Yes. It's one thing to get to the top of the wrestling business. These guys got to the top and then took the top even further up these guys were household names in a way that wrestlers just do not attain anymore.
And it gave us vince doing the Charleston to corpse Austin live
My Friday morning is set... Mrs. Foley's baby boy and the Bionic Redneck! This should be awesome
Gentleman Chris Adams should be a legend just for the superkick alone, his was a thing of beauty... And then he brought us Steve Austin...Give that man a lifetime achievement award!
Love this podcast. One of my favorites. Congrats fellas on another great episode!
Love you, Mick. Thank you for everything.
Could listen to Foley everyday all day! Pure Wrestling Legend! Austin is the King!
Austin the GOAT. And despite what Hunter and WWE say, Foley is right up there. One of the best of all time and sacrificed so much for the fans and his fellow wrestlers. Mick made guys like Rock, Hunter, and even Orton. Long live Foley.
Absolutely!!!
Another Friday another Mick Foley podcast!
Loved this!
Mick, my kids and I are gonna be at the Rumble. Would LOVE to see/meet you. Hope you’re there.
Psyched for this: an early Christmas present for us all.
WE have needed this PODCAST for a long time now.
WHY are you TALKING like THIS
The Austin/Adams feud is a classic. We cared about Austin when he went to WCW because Adams had made him someone to watch.
Oh and that little thing about ..... AUSTIN STEALING ADAMS' WIFE !! :-) Bahaha
@@brainhakker7133 😂
That one PPV, King of the Ring 1996, was (and it's debatable), the official start of the "Attitude Era".
Mick might of put his body through hell but his art work is timeless and he can be content with not wrestling anymore when you see other old wrestlers still getting in the ring at a old age and stinking the place up. They don't want to be forgotten. Foley will never be forgotten. And he's enjoying life after wrestling knowing that he could never be duplicated.
HAVE A NICE DAY!!! BANG BANG!!!! Love you Mick since King Of The Ring 98(Hell In The Cell Mankind Vs The Undertaker) I was 13 at time. WWF Attitude GET IT!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you Mick. We love ya Mister January.
Damn Steve was an absolute stud back then 😂
Stone Cold taught me DTA and it really has helped me throughout life. 💀🍻
He comes down as ice dagger, done!! That made me laugh and is so true haha.. enjoyed the episode
"Mr Rumble Royale the 3 faces of Foley!
Hey Mick! Love your podcast!
The Austin K.O. match was a great final match for Steve bc he was able to still look good without being completely exposed due to age
His final match was with Hollywood Rock at Wrestlemania 19 in 2003. Not sure who this KO fellow is, but to each his own.
@@Rschr101 He wrestled KO at Wrestlemania 38. The match is on youtube, Austin looked good.
one of my favorites yet, but really no matter the topic, Micks storytelling is what we enjoy all of em 4. OWWWWWWWWWWWW have MERRRRRCAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
The last person I'd think to call was the guardrail for a wrestling podcasts if I ever needed a lawyer hahaha
Total Legend and an amazing man. thanks for all the great memories
DANGEROUS ALLIANCE 😎😍 I got into watching wrestling from old VHS , omg those were the days, Paul. E Dangerously 😂🤣
Mick, Philly has loved you since the beginning bro. Nothin But Love from the City of brotherly
My fav Foly moment isnt the crazy ones, tho they are up there. It was bringing back Cactus to go crazy on HHH. That was a moment for me as a kid
It's funny that I only knew Austin at first as the guy who real-life "stole" Chris Adams' wife as a result of an angle. Of course, this would not be the first or last time that this happened.
Hilarious bro. Are you a comedian by chance?
Mick is great. I gotta meet him.
Hell of a shirt Mick!!
I've watched that match with Hunter from the Rumble a ton of times...its my second favorite Foley match right behind him and HBK from Mind Games.
Rumble 2000 is a classic. Shame these days Hunter doesnt give that match or Foley very much credit in MAKING him. Foley is top 5 easily and hes almost never talked about in the current product, meanwhile they shoehorn HHH and lameass DX into everything.
Foley is such a sweet friendly guy, not a meathead at all
I love how Mick talks about the DDT and selling moves the right way for the right amount of time. If anyone who thinks a DDT is total bs should watch Jake the Snake plant Ricky Steamboat on the floor. The crack of Ricky's skull when he hits is unsettling.
Stone cold is a legend
Stone cold vs. The rock vs triple h
Triple threat of nostalgia
Love this podcast!
How about a tee shirt .." Mr Rumble Royale"..there's your loophole!
Can somebody PLEASE tell me what song the intro is a parody of? It’s killing me.
" Ring my Bell " Anita Ward
When I first started in the business I would take the Nestea plunge to get eliminated from every battle royal I was in. I was just desperate to get noticed... nobody noticed. I'm stupid lol
PS- No injuries for me, but I'm half Mick's size. Just serious soreness.
The Colossal Kongs you mean Mick
The great Gentleman Chris Adams
Mick, love the pod brother. Listen to it every week. I would never say anything to disparage you but please man, I’m begging you, please stop retelling the same stories every single week. I’m not even blaming you because if Conrad was a real friend he would either cut you off and let you know or edit it out. I’m probably gonna get attacked in the comments but I never read them so I don’t care. That is all. Sorry if I came off like an asshole.
Beautiful shirt!!
Hairline of the gods
Fang McFrost, Chilli McFreeze
Have a nice day
Big show had to go under the learning tree
Love you Mick,
Austin stopped over in ECW just long enough to steal Mikey and Sandman's gimmicks 😂😂
Mikey?
Yawn😴
There’s no stealing a gimmick. There is selling a gimmick, and Austin sold it best. So it’s his.
Legend
1:37:45
My response to foley is … “WHAT?”
It's kinda strange, it's almost like WCW and WWF worked out a trade in the mid 90s... WWF's 80s and early 90s main eventers for WCW's midcard guys they had no use for now that they had Hogan, Savage, etc. And we know who got the better deal there.
I have the Mr IYH song stuck in my head
Good Shit Pal
5 per ent is all I ask mick!! Lol
I’m skimming through somewhat, but did they totally skip over the matches Foley had with Austin at Unforgiven and Over the edge 98? Wasn’t expecting that
Unforgiven when Austin threw Mick off that bandstand onto the concrete...ooof. Great stuff.
ovrall rock has had a great career in hollywood ect and rock was a huge star in wwf/e but he doesnt come close to Austin no one has been as over as Austin Stone cold is the GOAT
love mick top fella
Laugh at the “crying wrestling fan”.
If I ever meet Mick, I’ll be bawling worse than that guy.
Because everyone knows what Eric Embry sounds like :D
Legends
Fucking sweet thumbnail
Austin will always be the biggest at top superstar in Wrestling with Hogan a close second. Than in whatever order you want Flair, Rock, Taker, HBK, Hart, Cena, Punk and Roman... Then your Foleys, DB, Angle, HHH, Sting, Hall, Nash, Macho, Lesnar, Goldberg, Jericho, etc... Then your Kanes, Guerrero, Benoit, Rollins, KO, Styles, I'd put Vader, honestly maybe Sid, Luger, Steiner etc...
Mick I am curious if you want to know where Austin's meeting was are you cool enough to text him? Maybe it's none of my business but in my head you guys are best buds still and keep in touch.
Seeing Mick's image next to a nicotine product hurts.
"Hurts"? 😪 lol
I love Nash and Sean, but Mrs Foley baby boy is a hardcore legend and so much more but doesn't have 5X as many subs as Nash
Come on people, sub to Mick and spread the word and tie him up with Nash!!!
I think a lot of that is because Sean is the most over babyface host in the biz where as Conrad has xpac heat to a lot of wrestling pod fans
@@Harry-sc1xk it's gotta be
Wrestlers should have unionized. Hogan killed it, and stuff like this reinforces it. Play the big guys against the little guys. Tell the little guys they'll get paid more if they work harder while you exploit them.
Nice to see Conrad’s ad reads still take up 25% of the show….
The superkick and the ten punches in the corner are the moves that thought me that wrestling was a work, I was in single digits when I realized that actually doing these things would likely kill a person.
Or take their eye out like in Chris Adams's case.
What's the story behind Mick's hard blinking?
Probably has alot to do with that moron Rock hitting him in the head with a chair multiple times at rumble 99.
Use 2x speed to go through ads
Hit the like button yall
A Finish Move should be the end of a match otherwise it's just a Move ......
Better yetMr Rumble Royale if twl faces is bad 3 is better!
No TIMESTAMPS AGAIN..?!
Next time I'm not even giving you guys the (comment) engagement.

He grooms himself so well…Why won’t he buy himself some New teeth?
1:19:47 LMFAO
Seems like the guys who make these pods know its scummy to act like this episode has Austin on it.
Do they look like they are eating healthy??
Conrad getting upset that foley rambling on about nothing
Conrad's more upset the local buffet closed.
👑🗣💎💎🎥🔊👂👂👀🧠📝 - Rah T
Love the shirt Mick, where can I get one??
Santa Kevin
Moves to be respected-
Tombstone ( kneeling and sitout )
Piledriver ( every variation )
Powerbomb
Burning Hammer
BrainBuster
Chokeslam
Stunner
DDT ( especially butterfly ddt )
Some suplexes especially
Rock Bottom/ Uranage
Flip Piledriver/ Canadian Destroyer
Anything that should kill someone in reality lol. I Piledrivered this kid in a fight once ( I hated fighting but I was the only person who wrestled and I was good so I would kill my friends when I did. THIS KID RAN UP TO TACKLE ME AND WITH HIS MOMENTUM HIT A PERFECT SITOUT PILEDRIVER. I EXPECTED HIM TO GET RIGHT BACK UP BUT HE DIDN'T. I DIDN'T SEE HIM FOR 3 WEEKS. HE DESERVED IT AND WOULD TRY TO SUCKER PUNCH PEOPLE ALL THE TIME. THAT WAS THE LAST TIME HE EVER TRIED TO HIT ME LOL...
And a few others
Tbh a super kick will never be over like it was and although some can use it as a finish im actually ok with it being treated like a vertical suplex ( everyone uses it... )
Sit out tombstones aren’t legal because you can actually break someone’s neck.
I'm the only one who thinks The Ringmaster isn't THAT shitty off a gimmick name. It's fine. Other guys have overcome MUCH shittier gimmicks that were foist upon them. Not sure why it's seen as a near career killer.
It’s just as bad as “The Wrestlemaster” would be. It’s a terrible name.
