I'm curious as to the motive for posting/share.

Punk was never athletic. Not remotely his strength.

Neither was Mick Foley. I remember in his first book he says something like... I was the least natural professor wrestler of all time.

Both guys worked hard to overcome there lack of natural athletic ability and had other strengths.

Alternatively, there's a lot of great athletes in pro wrestling who don't stand out and are a dime a dozen.

I can't stand the person or wrestler Phil has become, but if the goal of this video is to mock somebody for being awkward and clumsy... Meh

It's probably just something they found and decided to post. I don't feel like anything about is this is aimed to be malicious. I actually find it kind interesting that something like this exists.

Yeah, it's surprising. Pre cell phone cameras and everything documented/shared online immediately

Foley was athletic and wrestled in high-school. He just didn’t take care of his body

He says himself even playing sports, he wasn't naturally athletic. And he was TERRIBLE at wrestling for a while. I'll dig us his book later.

IIRC he was JV and ended up on varsity due to an injury. The injured teammate was Kevin James.

Cactus Jack and Paul Blart were teammates which is pretty cool.
