Weekend Update: Mick Foley Cheats, Bam Bam Trends

Over the weekend, a couple interesting tidbits hit the wrestling world.

Saturday

First off was Mick Foley competing in the annual Philadelphia Wing Bowl and was caught red handing dipping his hands into the cookie jar, er... fanny pack. Foley was at the event and strolled out to the contestant area via a mini ring, like the Wing Bowl was happening during Wrestle Mania 3.


But things took a turn for the worse, when Foley was caught red handed, stuffing some of his chicken wings down his fanny pack in an effort to take the lead.

This was obviously done tongue-in-cheek, as you can see Foley looking around and appears to see himself on camera, before stuffing the wings in his fanny pack. Plus, there was a referee standing right in front of him, and when Foley was DQ'd, he threw a fit, waving his hands in the air. Because of the mischief, the Wing Bowl actually got some pretty good social media coverage. If I was the organizer of the event, I'd bring Foley back every year, and have him try a new way each year to cheat his way to the top, making a show of it. Good stuff.


Sunday

Sunday was Super Bowl 49, and everyone was ready for the halftime performance of Katy Perry. What they weren't ready for was the flame-engulfed attire Perry wore for the performance, drawing similarities to the late Bam Bam Bigelow. Below are a couple tweets from The Iron Sheik and JBL.
