The focus of this installment is on Cactus Jack. Some great photos here with excellent narration from Jim Ross. Lots of FMW and even ECW footage as Cactus explains his death match history. Mick quotes Shakespeare in full character, which is tremendous. He works in a great story about a woman paying twice the price to move from first class to coach to avoid sitting next to him on an airplane. I love these.

It really was a point when WWF was more open to their own archives of video/pictures but also working in pictures/video of Mick from FMW. We also get some brief ECW footage. You could tell these stories but it helped for them to show the extra footage of the death matches he was in.

These keep getting better an better and we get the evolution of where Mankind is today. This installment focused on Cactus Jack and they way they interspersed in the footage was really clever.

Mankind defines Cactus Jack in contrast to the era of dyed hair and bodybuilder physiques, before showing us how his body can be a symbol of life fulfilled--an arm scar from Tokyo, a missing ear from Germany, a head scar from Louisville, and all points between. Mankind relishes in the ability to make people sick. Foley was probably right in ranking this among the 3 best things in his career.

This is amazing. Foley spills his guts about the creation of Cactus Jack & working death matches in Japan. Fascinating to watch & listen to. This is one of the best interview series the WWF has ever done.
