15 WWE Wrestlers Whose Props Defined Their Characters
5. Mick Foley - Barbed Wire Bat
Given his depraved fondness for absorbing pain, it should come as no surprise that it was Foley himself who conceived the idea to wrap barbed wire around a baseball bat, while, as one user on Reddit pointed out, it could also be viewed as a euphemism for Cactus Jack as it does sort of resemble the prickly plant from which his famous characters name is derived. That being said, Barbie was more often used against Foley to turn him into a gruesome blood-soaked mess, taking centre stage in some of the most barbaric matches ever to go down in the squared circle and where the WWE legend regularly pushed the boundary of in-ring brutality to hardcore, and sometimes stomach-churning, extremes.
