Mick Foley
'Hard Knocks & Cheap Pops'
Bang Bang!
- One of Mick Foley's catch phrases -
I'm gonna use an insider term I don't like to do this too much, but there's
something known as 'selling' which is making a blow look like it hurts.
Now, when a chair is delivered to your head usually you don't
have to 'sell' the blow because it really does hurt alot.
- Mick about 'selling' -
There were something like 72 Al Snow jokes in the book.
- Mick says there were 72 Al Snow jokes in his book 'Have A Nice Day' -
Mick: We're here Al. Viva Las Vegas as part of UPN's Vegas Invasion weekend. That's why they pulled out all the stops and flew us first class.
Al Snow: Wait, wait, wait, wait. Flew us first class?
Mick: Yeah.
Al Snow: I was in 28C. I was back by the crapper.
Mick: I know. I saw you there.
Mick: Look at that. The hand of a lifetime. I've been dreaming about a hand like this, baby.
Al Snow: You dream about your hand all the time.
Mick: Shut up Al.
- Mick was playing cards in Vegas and had 4 aces and a 2 -
Oh man, it's the Best of Al Snow. I can't wait to play this. There's nothing in here. It's empty.
There is no Best of Al Snow. *hahaha* Of course there isn't. There's no such thing.
The Best of Al Snow. *hahaha* This is the merriest Christmas of all. *hahaha*
- Mick made lots of jokes about Al Snow not having his own video -
He loves to dish it out and he loves to take it too.
- King on Cactus Jack liking to dish out pain -
Most of the time when I bring out dangerous objects, they backfire on me.
- It seems to be when he brings out 2x4's covered in barbed wire they backfire on him -
It doesn't really matter whether you win or lose, it's how you mame The Game.
- Cactus Jack -
You said my blood was going to stain New York City.
Well, there was blood and it did stain New York but it sure as hell wasn't mine.
- Cactus Jack to Triple H about their Street Fight at Royal Rumble 2000 -
I go to a movie, I'm watching the movie, I'm thinking
'How can I turn that into an angle in our business?'
I obsess about the business, sometimes too much.
- Triple H about wrestling -
Somebody thought the crowd was chanting “Foley’s dead, Foley’s dead.”
And they were really chanting “Holy s-h-i-t.”
- About Mick falling through the top of the cage at No Way Out 2000 -
As much as I’d like to get a cheap pop by simply going ‘Bang Bang’…
- Cactus Jack to the crowd -
My first day there, I had a chance to do a couple of interviews with a couple of up and coming young superstars who I not only respected but liked personally and I thought they had alot of great potential and this was Edge and Christian. And nobody knew what was going to happen when that camera went on. Nobody knew it was going to be the birth of what had become known backstage as 'Chredgeley' - Christian, Edge and Foley. And it was great stuff.
- Mick enjoyed working with Edge and Christian -
Mick was talking to Edge and Christian about his greatest moment in the WWF. He wished he could have been a part of Edge's birthday, even in the background because it was a great segment. Christian said Mick could have been hiding behind the couch and then could have brought Socko in, sung Happy Birthday and then left for no reason, it didn't have to be explained. I found these Edge and Christian moments hilarious. Kurt Angle, Edge and Christian were wearing Teletubbies party hats on their heads which Mick remembered. Here are some Edge and Christian highlights from the party:
Christian: It's Edge's birthday and Stephanie said we could celebrate in here.
Edge: Since The Game's here, why don't we play some?
*Edge & Christian are playing 'Rock, Paper, Scissors'*
Edge: *Ahahaha* Scissors totally cuts paper. *haha*
Christian: Damnit!
Christian: Edge, look at this. Kazoo's and streamers.
Edge: *Ahahaha* Streamers rule. Long live the stream.
Christian: Yeah, long live the 'zoo.
Christian: Hey, listen to this. I'm gonna play our music.
*Christian starts playing the kazoo and Edge sings along*
Edge: You think you know me. You think you know me.
Triple H: That does it. Alright, get out!
Christian: I can play your music too.
Edge: It's my time. It's my time. It's my time.
Triple H: Get out! *Triple H then shoves Edge and Christian out of their dressing room*
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Christian: Hey, I don’t know about you but I’m a little thirsty. Maybe we can get old a Commissioner Mick there to get us a couple of sodas, huh?
Edge: I’m parched. And sodas rule.
Christian: Yeah they do.
Mick just gave you sodas.
- Mick sang this while walking away from giving Edge & Christian the sodas -
And we said we had to go to surfing lessons and it was 11 o'clock at night.
- Edge on why him and Christian to 'bail' on Commish Foley -
Mick: I happen to be a three time former WWF champion and a Hardcore legend and I never had my own dressing room.
Edge: Mick, you never change your clothes.
Christian: You just wrestle in what you’re wearing.
Mick: That’s a good point.
*Mick looks at the Winnie the Pooh logo on his shirt*
Mick: Isn’t that right, Winnie?
Edge: You have a lot of his clothes.
Mick: Yeah. I like them.
Edge: That’s cause you’re full of pooh.
Mick: How much do you weigh?
Christian: Like 217.
Mick: You’re lying.
Christian: Damnit!
Holybustapalooza!
- Mick said this after the Conquista-Hardyz beat Edge & Christian for the Tag Team titles -
Foley: That Edge is some athlete.
Al Snow: The only reason you're saying that is because he laughs at your stupid jokes.
Foley: Yeah, I know. Hey Edge. Edgester. I got a new Al Snow joke for ya. How many Al Snow matches fill out a Best of Al Snow tape?
Edge: You got me.
Foley: None, there is no such thing. *hahaha*.
Christian: This is so gonna be the shortest reign ever for the Hardyz.
Mick: The shortest reign, huh?
Christian: Yeah.
Mick: Well, I guess they might need these. The shortest umbrella. *hahaha* Short reign.
Edge: You're a reekazoid, Mick.
The Commissioner's had some great offices
but one of my favourites was the women's bathroom.
- Mick Foley -
Good way to sum it all up - *thumbs up* Good stuff.
- Edge about all the 'Chredgeley' moments -
I want your respect and deep down Stephanie, I also want you to like me which is why when I was going through my closet, I found this shirt. I also found these (medals) and I decided that I would wear them because I know that you are attracted to men who wear gold medals around their neck.
- Foley to Stephanie -
