X-Pac welcomes Mick Foley to the show.
X-Pac talks about some of the calculated risks he, Foley and other performers took early on in their careers. He points out that a lot of those dangerous things were part of what made them successful professional wrestlers at a later point in their careers. Foley agrees, pointing out that while he doesn’t regret the things he did, he admits that he probably shouldn’t have been doing dangerous bumps for small crowds at indie events.
On the other hand, Foley points out that if he didn’t treat every show like it was the most important show he would ever wrestle on, he doesn’t think he would have ever reached the heights that he did later in his career. He doesn’t regret the decisions he made during his career, but he admits that he probably could have been smarter with the execution at times.
X-Pac recalls the night Mick Foley won the WWE Championship. He says that was a great moment, especially with all the wrestlers backstage rushing to the ring to celebrate with Foley. Foley agrees, pointing out that the ovation in the arena was enormous when Steve Austin’s music hit, and again when he picked up the pin-fall victory. Given the jump in ratings that the segment saw that night, this became a huge moment in the Monday Night War and in WWE’s history.
