John Cena wouldn't have been in that situation because had Cena been in that match against Taker, it would have been Taker falling through the cage. Cena can beat up Mick Foley any day of the week.
Indeed. The reason why this deserves five stars, regardless of whether you like wrestling or not, is that Mick Foley not only loved his craft but was also totally batshit insane to the extent that he was willing to subject his body to this punishment.
The only wrestling match I've ever seen that had me near tears. When he fell through the ring, it was pretty clear that it wasn't supposed to happen, and I figured that at BEST we'd never see Foley wrestle again.
