Similarly, Mick Foley did not need to crash through a flaming table at WrestleMania 22. The feud was - fittingly - red hot long before the 'Mania match, but Edge benefited greatly from his triumph over the veteran. The match wasn't a long one by any stretch of the imagination, going just shy of 15 minutes, but it did leave a lasting impression on everyone watching. Once again, Foley put himself through torture to enhance the career of an up-and-coming main event star. Working with Mick has shown itself to be a chance for younger names to prove their worth. Edge was no different, and he came across like a man willing to do anything to make a splash. The table bump has become infamous, one of Foley's biggest ever. That's saying something, because the legend has never been afraid to put his body on the line for the betterment of his matches or angles. Even so, his 'Mania 22 epic with Edge is something WWE should be thankful for. It provided a real 'WrestleMania Moment' for the card, one right up there with Rey Mysterio's capture of the World Heavyweight Title.
