Foley earned a lot of the comedy collateral the same way Angle did, in that he could become a badass at the drop of a dime. Sure, he could be a big goof, but when it came time to be serious, motherfucker was rolling around in fire, thumbtacks, and barbed wire.

And most of his comedy came towards the end of his career when he couldn't be a consistent main event talent. When it came time for him to main event his last couple of PPVs (as a full-time performer in 2000), he became SUPER SERIAL Cactus Jack. Who, for sure, had his moments of levity, but it wasn't like Mr. Socko era Mankind.

Kenny Omega is almost the complete package, but some of Cornette's criticisms ring true (not all of them, though).
