As Cactus Jack
- Bang bang bang, on the door baby!
- Bang bang! You're dead!
- Bang bang!
- Foley originally began using the former line while wrestling as "Cactus Jack" as a homage to the song "Love Shack" by The B-52's, quoting the line in conjunction with a quick "finger pistol" motion. He later shortened the line to simply "bang bang!", but retained the gesture.
- Look! I can't even wear glasses because my ear is missing. I'm hardcore! I'm hardcore!
- That sounds good let me just put this pen behind my ea--woops! If fell because I'm harcore! I'm hardcore! I'm hardcore!
- I'm going to take you back to a very deciding point in my life - a time when I believed in something. A time when I thought that my face and my name made a difference. Do you remember the night, Tommy Dreamer, because it's embedded in my skull, it's embedded in my heart, and it's embedded in every nightmare that I will ever have. As Terry Funk took a broken bottle and began slicing and dicing Cactus Jack, the pain was so much that I'll be honest with you Tommy. The pain was so much that I wanted to say I quit, Terry Funk, I give, I wave the flag, and I'm a coward - just please don't hurt me anymore. Then I saw my saving grace. You see, Tommy, I looked out in that audience, my adoring crowd, and I saw two simple words that changed my life. 'Cane Dewey.' Somebody had taken the time and the effort and the thought to make a sign that said, 'Cane Dewey' and I saw other people around, as every moment in my life stopped and focused in on that sign and the pain that shot through my body became distant memory-replaced by a thought which will be embedded in my skull until my dying day! 'Cane Dewey.' 'Cane Dewey.' Dewey Foley is a three-year-old boy, you sick sons of bitches. You ripped out my heart, you ripped out my soul, you took everything I believed in and you flushed it down the damn toilet. You flushed my heart, you flushed my soul, and now it sickens me to see other people making the same mistake. You see, Tommy Dreamer I have to listen to my little boy say everyday 'Daddy, I miss Georgia,' and I say, 'That's too bad son, because your dad traded in the victorian house for a sweatbox on Long Island. Your Dad traded in a hundred-thousand dollar contract, guarateed, money, insurance, respect and the name on the dotted line of the greatest man in the world - to work for a scumbag who operates out of a little pissant pawn shop in Philadelphia.' You don't expect me to be bitter? Tommy, when you open your heart, when you open you soul, and it gets shit on, it tends to make Jack a very mean boy. and so, I say to you- before I take these aggressions out on you, to look at your future and realize that the hardcore life is a lie, that these letters behind me are a blatant lie, that those fans who sit there and say "He's Hardcore He's Hardcore He's Hardcore", wouldn't piss on you if you were on fire, you selfish son of a bitch! But, I want you to understand Tommy though he's hurt you time and time again, Raven wants you to understand that the hatred I have in here is not for you. No, no- far from it. You see, Tommy, I'm not doing this because I hate you- I love you, man! I only want the best for you--but when I hear that WCW called up your number and you said, 'No thank you' -- well, it makes my blood run cold. As cold as that night in the ECW arena. And so I got moral obligation - you see Tommy, I'm on the path of the righteousness and the righteous men wield a lot of power. So if I've got to drag you by your face to telephone and dial collect and say, 'Hello Eric, it's me, Cactus, and though I know I've burned my bridge, and I'll never be taken back with open arms-I've got a wrestler who would glady trade in his ECW shirt for a pair of green suspenders.' And Tommy, just think of that sound in your ear when Eric says, 'Welcome home, Tommy Dreamer, welcome home.'"
- But what’s it really done? Where have we really come to? Lying in a hospital bed in Munich, Germany, watching my ear being thrown out into a garbage can, not being able to take it on the trip back because I don’t know the German word for formaldahyde, and having a nurse walk into my room, looking at that piece of my body that’s laying in the bottom of the garbage, and saying “es ist alles ein grosser Witz”, which means it’s all a big joke. Excuse me, I didn’t know, do you open up the lungs of a smoker and say “oh my golly, I thought smoking was supposed to be good for you?!” Do you open up Terry Funk’s non functioning liver and say, “oh I didn’t know that four decades of heavy drinking took this kind of toll?!” So if they show that much respect to the patients, then what made me any different?
Because I was a wrestler. And professional wrestling will never be respected, no matter how many teeth I lose, no matter how many ears I lose, no matter how many brain cells have to die!"

As Dude Love
- Oh, have mercy!
- Foley began using this line while wrestling as the "retro-hipster" "Dude Love".
[edit]
As babyface Mankind
- Have a nice day!
- Foley began using this line while wrestling as "Mankind", uttering the line ironically in a demented voice. He later began using the catchphrase in a more optimistic sense, and released a related "smiley" T-shirt. The catchphrase eventually became the title of his autobiography.
- …and for the dozens…and dozens of Mankind fans…
- Foley began using this line during the latter part of his career as "Mankind". In his by then customary self-deprecating fashion, Foley mimmicked The Rock, who regularly claimed to have "millions...and millions" of fans.
- Say hello to Mr. Socko!
- This will be fun!
- Why can't we just.. get along?
- It's a really nice day, isn't it?
- Have you met my friend, Mr. Socko?
- You can't beat me. I'm invincible!

As heel Mankind
- The time has come, to relieve that pain, which will be better for me, but not enjoyable for all of you!
- On the eighth day, God created Mankind. Why was he having such a bad day? Why did he create all of you normal and forget so many important parts of me!? He made the teeth that I swallowed... The ear that was ripped from my skull! A face that no longer exists! Deep inside, you are merely a mirror image of all my atrocities! The ugliness that exists outside, lives inside every one of you!
- Destruction can be beautiful!
- Leave the light on, I'm coming home!
- I'm gonna eat you alive, Undertaker!
[edit]
As Mick Foley
- …and that is final!
- Foley began using this line while "Mick Foley, WWF commissioner", in order to indicate that his decision had been made. He would sometimes strike a surface with a gavel for added emphasis.
- ...right here in [insert city and US states name]
- This was used by Mick to get a "pop" or positive and vocal reaction from the crowd. It is covered in depth in the DVD and Home Video release entitled "Mick Foley: Hard Knocks and Cheap Pops".
- Welcome to Anaheim, California, my fellow broken-down, washed-up wrestler.
- Moonpies Rule!

Feud with Edge
- Edge I will like to thank you for bringing me back the hardcore legend!
- Edge you are gonna realize that the truth hurts, bang! bang!
- Do you realize what you've done?
- You brought back a monster that was sleeping way too long!
