Chris: You were there.
Sean: This pleases me.

[FathersUnited-fu]

Top 3 wins for sure. Eddie G, Chris Benoit & Mick Foley winning the titles really meant something when it happened.

[marcussmith]

This is the single biggest reason why WCW is dead you just had to be living to know what this moment means to Wwe fans

[bgfarm]

The best part is WCW tried to spoil Mick winning the title live on their show n almost mocked it like no one would care about him being champ n it caused like 2 million ppl to switch over to watch bc ppl love Foley. That alone tells you everything you need to know about WCWs understanding of what the fans really wanted

[jimminykricket]

I remember this win was so big they reported it on the radio the next morning in other countries!

[juanorozco]

This & when Bret beat Yokozuna at WM 10 & all the faces came out to celebrate were awesome moments i think they should do the same thing when some1 finally beats Roman hopefully Cody it would be great.

[motorious]

I was there that night, and it is still one of the greatest moments of my life haha.

[MetlKen]

Mick Foley winning the WWF championship will always be my favorite title change in the history of Monday Night Raw. Even my dying grandmother was whooping and hollering with the rest of us! It was epic!

[wanmanrmy]

That match has not just one but two of the biggest pops of all time - the crowd goes NUTS when the glass shatters for Austin’s run in and then it’s like the place exploded when the 3 count to make Foley the champ happens.

[DC-uvik]

I will never not get goosebumps hearing that pop

[Oibble]

Greatest moment in wrestling history for me

[dean]

Everyone turned it from WCW at the same time

[michaelloud]

I was there! Worcester, MA! When the glass broke, holy sh*t...roof blew off

[amjedhatu]

What a time to be alive! Even though we knew it was going to happen it felt so real and just seeing someone like Mick hold the championship was just amazing.

[skeetmckillpop]

Mick should have went over clean there was no need for Austin to do a run-in the only reason it happened is because Austin was so over and to protect the Rock. But what a great moment in wrestling history Mick Foley, mankind winning the WWF world heavyweight title

[LeoWhalen]

Pro wrestling was still awesome (mostly WWF) until WM X7- but this was probably the pinnacle of that time. It was everything great about wrestling.

[rtyuik]

legend has it, theyre still looking for pieces of the Roof, cuz they blew it the hell off the building that night...the locker room division, the 'de facto lumberjack match', Billy attacking Shamrock with that "DONT RUIN THIS! THIS IS MANKIND'S NIGHT!!" energy, and then Austin's Glass shattered...that wasnt your average "Stone Cold is my favorite wrestler" pop, that was a "trapped in a fire until Superman Stone Cold saved you" nuclear reaction...

...i may not be the best at 'reading the Story' in wrestling matches, but This match was spelled out in huge blocky letters, with pictures to go along with em...

[WMartinNI]

Foley was never the biggest star but this title win is one of the most iconic moments from the best era of wrestling, made all the more iconic by the derision aimed at him from the Nitro commentary booth. No one who watched wrestling back then can watch this without getting goose bumps.

[coolyoutubename]

Really wish they could capture half the buzz of back then in today's wrestling. Haven't watched wwe since 2003. It's just not the same

[bryanhuggett]

I would say that was one of the top raw moments in WWE history.
