"Mick Foley will always be remembered as nothing more than a glorified stunt man."

Those words were spoken by the Nature Boy Ric Flair in reference to Mick Foley, one of the most celebrated superstars to ever get in a wrestling ring.

Ric Flair is not alone in his criticism of Mick Foley. The man of many faces has been routinely lambasted by fans and critics because of his lack of athletic ability and limited move set. However, despite the fact that he was never the most gifted natural athlete, Mick Foley managed to reach the top of the industry when he wore the WWE World Championship.

Mick Foley's charisma and ability to cut a promo is at the top or near the top of the list of the all-time greats. Whether bantering with longtime ally The Rock or delivering a chilling and unsettling interview as Cactus Jack or Mankind, Foley is an excellent entertainer.

Not to mention he literally sacrificed body parts for the wrestling business, including his ear which was ripped off during a bout against Vader in Japan.
