Fittingly enough I had the chance to sit down with WWE Hall of Famer Mick Foley on my radio show in Cincinnati, on the day of the anniversary. He says Undertaker’s debut, to a certain extent, changed their relationship:
That mystique never wore off for Foley, even when the two started the feud that launched Mankind’s WWE career:
I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to ask Mrs. Foley’s Baby Boy about his favorite Undertaker story, outside of their Hell in Cell match at King of the Ring in 1998. He came up with an amusing tale of when he spotted the Undertaker in public for the first time after his Survivor Series debut. At this point a few years had gone by:
Foley went on to give Undertaker credit for setting him on his own Hall of Fame career path. He says no one would have cared about Mankind’s debut, had his first feud been with anyone other than the ‘Deadman.’
