A Wrestling Career Unlike Any Other

Having watched the exploding popularity of professional wrestling during the WCW/WWF feud, I've seen my share of characters, but not many quite like Mick Foley. His ability to dive in head first with his characters including Mankind, Dude Love and Cactus Jack, along with his ability to absorb massive hits and producing some of the most memorable matches in history, carried him through decades in the professional wrestling world. Along with a storied career in wrestling, he's also an accomplished author, writing the New York Times bestseller "Have a Nice Day", an advocate for survivors of sexual assault with RAINN, and one heck of a storyteller.

On Tuesday, March 10, Foley will take the stage inside the Doubletree Hotel’s Club 337 for a roughly 90-minute show that blends nostalgia, wit, and the kind of off-the-cuff storytelling only he can deliver. Doors open at 6:30 p.m., with the show kicking off at 7:00 p.m. There’s even a 45-minute Q&A built in, so fans will get more than just tales from Foley’s historic career — they’ll get to hear the man reflect in his own words.

10 Infamous Receipts in Pro Wrestling History

In pro wrestling, a "receipt" is an ass-kicking that you brought upon yourself. It comes from the cardinal rule of the business -- always take care of your opponent. If you fail to do that, the repercussions will fall squarely on your head (often via chair shot).

The Undertaker recently explained the purpose of giving receipts in wrestling. "I'm pretty patient [when it comes to giving a receipt]. It all depends on intent," the Deadman said. "Some guys just work very snug. I pride myself on my punches. I feel like I can make it look like I can take your head off and not touch you. Every once in a while one gets away from me... I'd much rather it be there than it miss. It ain't ballet."

But not all receipts come after a stiff shot gets away. Sometimes a performer delivers a receipt to protect themselves from an unsafe worker, like when Taker had to shut down Giant Gonzalez at Wrestlemania IX. "[Gonzalez] cracks me right across the back of my neck, and then once I get back the feeling in my little fingers... I flipped," Taker recalled on his podcast. "I turned around and just started wailing on him."

Let's go back to classic WWE, the old territories, and even a battle between monsters in Japan. Here are 10 of the most infamous receipts in pro wrestling history.
