Always kinda liked the Cactus gimmick, along with the extra "edge" it seemed to give Mick as well as the modified moveset/spots he used.

Always liked Cactus Jack, though I did love the different sides of Mankind throughout the years - Mick really showcased his versatility within that one character alone.

He'll always be cactus jack to me. I guess it all depends on what resonated the most with you and who you saw him the most as

This was hard for me.
Honestly....I was never into the "Mankind" thing.
Dude Love was fun, I feel like that's what he truly wanted.
As Colden and Jayhn1111 said, it's by far Cactus Jack. It suited him well, so yea, Im with Cactus too.
I will say, his "3" run royal rumble performance was awesome.

It was kinda hard for me to accept him as mankind after watching him so much as cactus. I liked his early stuff at the time in texas, continental and all that. That move out on to the floor was pretty wild for it's time. Ofcourse he's paying the price for it til this day

Even watching his New Generation (1996-97) era stuff, which was tamer than the early days you're describing for sure, makes me a cringe a little. And an extra bit more after watching him hobble around on Holy Foley. |

I heard he's a super cool guy. I grew up in long island like him and they used to do bus trips to the ecw arena from long island and he used to ride the bus with everybody and they all said he was cool. I just missed riding with him by one trip because he just left for the wwf

Yeah there was one guy named John Arezzi that had a wrestling radio show. He lives in long island and organized the bus trips. He got us front row seats every time and I think it was like 20 dollar tickets plus another 20 for the bus. It was probably like 30 of us on the bus each time and he'd play wrestling videos on the monitors and guys would bring coolers with beer. It was a good time. That was 1995. I did like 4 of those that year. It was an experience. Then he stopped doing the the bus trips but luckily ECW started running in NY so it was easy to go to those shows. So I probably did like 10 shows in the 1994-96 period. After that I was just getting all the tapes of the stuff and not really going to the shows. But the promotion was super hot at that time and being in the front row made it all the more memorable. The electricity at the ECW arena was off the charts.
