That's all I have to say. It was fabulous. ;D
I missed that guy. When did we last see him? 1998?
I know Mick was last Mankind at the last anniversary show in about 2007?
When was he last 'Cactus Jack'? Well, TNA in 2008 I suppose.

Yeah, Over The Edge 98 was the last time we saw it before tonight, as far as I can recall. The last time I remember Mick even referencing the gimmick on-screen was in a backstage segment with Stevie Richards in the Fall of 99.

I just love how Mick Foley is the least cool man on the planet. It's ace!

At Taboo Tuesday 2005, we could have voted for Mick Foley to be Dude Love against Carlito, but Mankind won instead. He did appear in a promo against Carlito showing all three faces, including Dude Love.

Seriously, Carlito is cool...Dude Love is cool too...Come on, People! |

I wish he came out with his old shirt. I kind of marked out for Dude Love when he came out. However, at first, I thought it was going to be Flash Funk who was going to come out.

I was surprised Dude Love came out tbh, I always heard that was Mick Foleys least favorite so I thought we'd never see the dude again. When that music hit though  |

Considering one of my favorite moments of all time in wrestling is the Dude Love debut from the summer of 1997 I was pretty happy to see him do the gimmick again even if it wasn't a huge role.  If you haven't seen the whole angle about what lead to Foley doing the Dude Love gimmick you should look it up on youtube. It was pretty awesome. |

I loved it but was sad that Mick wasn't wearing the original Dude gear.

I loved it but was sad that Mick wasn't wearing the original Dude gear. Yeah, he really didn't feel like the Dude, you know? It felt like Mick Foley wearing a tye dye shirt and acting like a dumbass. And yeah, that's pretty much what the Dude is....but in a cool way, and a lot of that cool comes from the blue sweat pants and the sleeveless Dude Love shirt, all of it! He didn't seem ready to be the Dude last night, its like it was sprung on him 15 minutes before they went on air. |

I remember the Raw Homecoming Mankind looked nothing like Mick Foley under the mask. It was weird because his appearance was so random.

Mick turned the Dork-o-Meter right up to 11 for the Dude, and bless him for it.

Mick is really putting on the pounds, he looked wider than Brodus, I know he was never an Adonis but he looks like he ate another Mick Foley.

Mick made some reference on Twitter about not having time to get the gear. |
