Anytime Mick Foley is involved in a pay-per-view, the audience know they're in for a treat. But even with that mind-set, nobody was ready for his fight with Edge at WrestleMania 22.

Although nothing is off-limits in a Hardcore Match, these two wrestlers went way too far. During the infamous battle, Foley was tossed head-first into the ring stairs, had his skull smashed into the entrance platform, and was speared by Edge in the face!

Even though Foley is renowned for his superhuman endurance, Edge almost gave him a run for his money. You can tell the pain on Edge's face is real when Foley rams a barbed wired bat across his eyes. And when Foley performs the Mandible Claw on Edge with a barbed wire sock, fans thought they've seen it all.

And yet, these moments pale compare to the finale. For the climax, Edge speared Foley while he was on the outside of the ropes, causing the death-defying pair to land on a table... which was on fire.

When it was all over, fans knew Edge and Foley had just experienced one of the most painful wrestling matches of their careers.
