Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
The 'I Quit' match was filmed twice. Foley's real family believed the first take was too brutal and left the arena crying, so they softened the second version.
This event cemented the Attitude Era's signature blend of extreme violence and soap opera storytelling that made WWE defeat WCW in the Monday Night Wars.
