"I think the WWF fans deserve a substitute in that match. I think you know the guy. His name...is CACTUS JACK!" As a longtime Cactus Jack fan prior to this moment I marked out HUGE for this. The fact that he proceeded to beat the hell out of Triple H made it that much sweeter. |

They ruined it about an hour later, but:  La Parka randomly dodging Randy Savage's Elbow Drop, hitting a Diamond Cutter and pinning Randy Savage, and unmasking to reveal it was actually Dallas Page was a great moment that nobody expected. On a similar note, Ciclope winning the WCW Cruiserweight battle royal for a shot at Jericho's title, only for Ciclope to unmask, revealing a ready Dean Malenko standing before Jericho. |

"I think the WWF fans deserve a substitute in that match. I think you know the guy. His name...is CACTUS JACK!" This. And the first time he did it in 1997. |

Mankind taking off his mask and his button-up shirt to reveal the Cactus Jack shirt. Triple H's selling of the Cactus Jack shirt reveal made it all the more better. It made me believe that the "married to a 'billionaire's' daughter," famous, handsome, WWF Champion had heard the legends about Cactus Jack being hung from his neck by barbed wire, attacked with a branding iron in ECW, and literally being blown up by C-4 explosives in Japan. And Triple H was well-and-truly terrified that the man he conquered so easily as pitiable Mankind was transformed before his eyes into a man so fearless, so impervious to pain, that he once wrestled Vader with half of his left ear torn off and lying on the mat.
Just *chef's kiss* masterful storytelling and reveal.

1. His name... is Cactus Jack
2. DDP as the Taker stalker who debuts to mega heat, reveals to mega pop, gets them booing him again and gets over a truly terrible angle. All for nothing, but WHAT a debut.
3. Sandman returning to ECW in 99

Kane being revealed as being alive my favourite debut/reveal for me. When I saw the thread title I was just about to post right away: "That's gotta be Kane!", when I started finding myths and legends about wrestling that was like the coolest thing I ever saw from internet right away. When I was a regular watcher in present times, Kurt Angle's TNA signing announcement was it for me. Nothing has been this huge ever since. I was a huge TNA mark during this while! |

1. Cactus Jack is Back!
2. His name is Cactus Jack!
Nothing else is even close. Once every 6 months or so I watch just the reveal promos. They’re amazing.

An underlooked one, but Arn Anderson under the sheet to team with the Rock and Roll Express against the Heavenly Bodies/Bobby Eaton and the Stud Stable in Smoky Mountain. Cornette's reaction was great... youtu.be/J6kNcoM1qOQ |

That Malenko pop rivals some of the biggest pops Ive ever heard. |

On the ECW side of things...
Cactus Jack is in front of a curtain that only cover to the kneecaps to reveal his opponent. The curtain shows a pair of Sandman's zubaz, with the implication it's Sandman.
Jack looks to the crowd to pull open the curtain, only to reveal IT'S TERRY FUNK!
Such a moment.

Cornette's reaction was great... youtu.be/J6kNcoM1qOQHoly shit, this is great. Arn Anderson is the most underrated wrestler of all-time. He did all the little things so perfectly. Like in this clip, he hits Bobby Eaton and immediately starts shaking his hand. He paid attention to details and that's what made him so great. |

Yeh Cactus Jack against Triple H.
I started watching long after it but as a big fan of Foley I went back to watch it and it is just amazing.Without even needing to watch the rivalry.
personal favorite " and like every story...it needs a villain."
