10 Forgotten One Night Only WWE Returns
6. Mankind - Taboo Tuesday 2005
After weeks of feuding over Mick Foley's lack of perceived coolness by Carlito, a match was set up between 'The Hardcore Legend' and the Puerto Rican for Taboo Tuesday 2005. In a unique twist of the cyber show concept, fans were given the opportunity to vote for which one of Foley's personalities they would get to see: Mankind, Dude Love or Cactus Jack.
With 52% of the vote, Mankind won the poll in a landslide and Saint Mick donned the leather mask for the first time in five years.
While Foley had been in the ring three times since his memorable feud with Randy Orton - notably challenging Toshiaki Kawada for the AJPW Triple Crown Title at Hustle-3 - the time out of regular competition had seen him regain a bit of ring rust over the previous year. Regardless of the rust, the crowd were still pretty happy to see the three-time WWE Champion and the appearance under the guise of Mankind was a nostalgic moment that definitely was cool.
