Mick Foley Wishes He Could Bring Back Cactus Jack To Face Matt Cardona In GCW
King of the Deathmatch vs. King of the Internet?
Oct 26, 2021
When Matt Cardona defeated Nick Gage for the GCW Championship in July it was a genuine shock, with the former WWE Intercontinental Champion being showered with debris and abuse by the hardcore GCW crowd.
After his win, Cardona became one of the biggest heels on the independent scene, mocking hardcore wrestling, and vowing to ‘fix it’ and make GCW more sports entertainment like… like Cactus Jack did in ECW in 1995.
Speaking of Cactus Jack, imagine if he came back to take on Cardona? Well if he could he would, and that’s exactly what Mick Foley told The Metro:
“Oh, can you imagine the heat that Cardona would have if Cactus Jack came back for one last match? I can’t do it – I’m just saying, imagine! That’d be great.”
Despite hanging up his boots, Foley recently appeared for GCW, helping hype up the Jon Moxley Nick Gage title match:
“It was a really great experience with me because the people there, they feel like that promotion is there for them. And that’s part of the secret,” Foley continued “There’s all different types of wrestling out there for all different types of fans, and then you find a product that caters to fans who really take their wrestling seriously – I tell you, GCW’s a great show!
“Mox versus Gage is gonna get the lion’s share of the attention, but the rest of the card was solid to spectacular! There were a lot of risks being taken, but no one was going the death match route until the very end.”
