When Wrestling legend Mick Foley comes to Tampa, fans across the city are gearing up for a night that blends wrestling, storytelling, and pure entertainment at Side Splitters. We’d recommend this one no matter what, because Mick Foley is one of the most compelling characters the sport of professional wrestling has ever seen.
A Career That Defined Generations
From his blood-soaked high-wire days as Cactus Jack to becoming a near-household name as Mankind during WWE’s most popular 1990s/2000s Attitude era, Foley enthralled and entertained throughout a decades-long career that shaped the industry forever.
The Man Behind the Mask
Beyond the ring, Foley is a talented author, memoirist, and master storyteller with a quick mind and stories to spare, all of which make this “40 Years of Foley” engagement at Side Splitters Tampa a true win for fans who want more than just wrestling nostalgia.
Why This Tampa Event Matters Now
But making it a more topical pick, Foley—a longtime face, voice, and icon for WWE—recently broke all ties with the company for “coddling” Donald Trump in the wake of Trump’s attacks on Rob Reiner. It’s a bold and honorable move in a business where money, silence, and power often rule.
Foley Is God
True to the signs fans used to bring to shows, Foley, fans, and faith come together in the iconic phrase: Foley is god, a testament to how deeply he has resonated with audiences over the decades.
