I heard that Mick Foley legitimately kicked out of the Pedigree since he thought the match shouldn’t end with a Steph interference and then a Pedigree. He told Trips to Pedigree him into thumb tacks. Damn Foley you scary.

Apparently it was because the first pedigree missed a lot of the tacks and he thought the pedigree in the tacks would be more impactful. Trips had no idea he was going to do that, as you said.

Couldn't a thumb tack have gone through Foley's eyelids and legitimately pierced his eyeball? Did they shorten the tacks, or have Foley land on his chin to avoid that happening? It's a disturbing thought I've never been able to shake when seeing that spot.

Right? I could not BELIEVE he kicked out of that. Two of the most protected finishers ever, in quick succession, with NO delay before the pinfall. I thought him winning was a sure thing going in, because The Streak, but at that moment I thought there was absolutely no way he was surviving. You could *nuke* him and it wouldn't do more damage.

I went to Elimination Chamber & I lost my voice bcuz I started the "Santino!" chants...I was amazing hearing the pop grow louder & louder before everyone was cheering him on. What a great moment I'll never forget it!

For the Undertaker vs HBK WM25 match, I remember JR’s, “Chokeslams! Last Rides! Tombstones! And a kick out! And a kick out! And a kick out!” Such an epic line!

That’s part of what’s so good about the kofi vs Daniel feud. Kofi became Daniel Bryan and everything Daniel was leading up to 2014 mania while Daniel became everything Daniel fought while leading up to 2014 mania while both men were still their own characters

Omega kicking out of the Bucks' Golden Trigger was one of the most exhilarating moments I've ever seen in wrestling

Omegas kickout at Revolution is definitely one of my favourite wrestling moments ever and I'm so glad they go to do it in front of an actual crowd.

I know he turned out to not be so great a person, but with that said, when Marty Scurll hit Okada with the Rainmaker at the original All In as he was trying to prove he could hang with the heavyweights...that kick out still gives me chills! Yeah, we all knew Okada would win, but that moment and the filming of it was perfect.

Another kickout I remember very vividly was Hiroshi Tanahashi during the first round of the 2019 New Japan Cup against Shota Umino. You knew... KNEW... going in that a Young Lion was never going to beat the Ace, but Shota caught him in an Inside Cradle and Tana waited so long to kick out that for a split second I thought I was watching the upset of the century. Utterly brilliant.

Was at Wrestlemania 28. Being in attendance for Undertaker's kickout from the Sweet Chin Music + Pedigree combo was just incredible. People were LOSING THEIR MINDS. The floor was shaking. the FLOOR WAS SHAKING. It'll be years, or even decades, before anything close to that could happen again. If ever.

Kane kicking out of 3 tombstones at Mania 14. Yes you heard that right he kicked out of that third one too. At that time kicking out of even one was unheard of.

My favorite was Omega kicking out of the Golden Trigger at '1'. No suspected finish or pinfall. Just straight firing shots with HUGE insult to injury on that one. Lit a fire under Kenny.

Adam is our one and only savior

I would've rather had the Kurt Angle kick out you showed from the Mania 21 match instead of the HBK one. That Kurt kick out still stops my heart because of just how late it is

Watching 1st one gave me goosebumps again

One of my favourite kick-outs ever was Gargano vs Andrade for the NXT title. I wasn’t particularly invested in Andrade as champ and while I liked Gargano, I didn’t think he was ready to be champ so I wasn’t too bothered about the match. I don’t remember the exact sequence of moves leading up to it ended with Andrade hitting his hammerlock ddt. Everyone watching was sure that was it but Gargano kicked out at the last possible second and the whole crowd went mental. Even just watching at home , I got goosebumps. And just like that I was suddenly 100% invested in the match and cheering on Gargano.

5:54 Gotta agree with Adam wholeheartedly here. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to watch the full match, but even so I still love this moment. That more typical "WHAT IN THE BLAZES-" look that wrestlers do after a dramatic kickout is expected, and for good reason. It conveys that feeling of "I had them! This should be over! What do I do now?!" that the audience would expect from something like that. A feeling of anger and frustration that their strongest tool in their kit _still_ wasn't enough to actually finish off their opponent. However, replacing that with a pure drained look of "damn... now what?... where _can_ I go from here?..." after such a long build up to a moment like that just conveys how much the match has taken out of both competitors. Despite still having the advantage for the time being, it's clear that Okada is exhausted and feels like he just lost his opening to finish the match just from that one facial expression. It's such a good moment.

You dodged around my personal favorite Undertaker kick out, at Wrestlemania 27 after Triple H stole the Tombstone. I was there for that, and it felt like time went in slow motion as the ref was bringing his hand down for the third time and I still swear his finger tips brushed the canvas before taker got the shoulder up.

Went straight to the Bryan-Lesnar match after this video. Insanely great

Shane McMahon's kick out against Kurt Angle, king of the ring, street fight, best kick out I've ever seen. Shane was wheeled to the ring, dead weight, was pinned by Angle and kicked out..... the look on Angle's face was classic, he just wanted to go home at that point.
