Mick Foley's career, whether it be competing as Mankind, Cactus Jack or Dude Love, has always been connected to Stone Cold Steve Austin. Both rose to the main event scene at roughly the same time, and though Austin would hold more World titles, the pair were still able to create magic in the ring together.

Outside of the ring, the two Hall of Famers are close friends, with Austin speaking fondly about the Micker on multiple occasions on his podcast.

"He is one of the toughest guys ever in this business and one of the funniest and nicest as well."

Clearly, a lot of respect is held between these two, as Foley has been equally praising of the Rattlesnake in interviews, and was happy to be Austin's first real feud as WWF Champion when they collided at Unforgiven: In Your House.
