5 biggest WWE moments that took place inside the Madison Square Garden

#2: Cactus Jack debuts in the World Wrestling Federation

Cactus Jack decimated a young Triple H inside the World's Most Famous Arena to get a win on Monday Night RAW in 1997.

When Mick Foley joined the WWF as Mankind in 1996, the Hardcore legend had a history. For years, Foley had competed as Cactus Jack, the King of the Deathmatch, but hadn't brought the persona to the company. Instead, Foley was Mankind and faced countless opponents and in 1997, repeatedly came up short against Hunter Hearst Helmsley. Changing to Dude Love, the cool cat would also come up short against the Greenwich snob.

Realizing that he was outmatched regardless of the character he was using, Foley brought back the one he became famous for before his time with WWE. He debuted Cactus Jack, who would compete in the most hardcore matches you could imagine. Jack bested Hunter in a wild brawl that remains one of the best TV matches in MSG history.

After years in the company as the WWF's Mankind and the cartoony Dude Love, the Harcore legend finally got to show another side of his incredible personality, whilst giving long-time fans of his a blast from the past.
