Ric Flair and Mick Foley had a blood-filled gory match back in SummerSlam 2006, and it was an “I Quit” match. During that match, Flair used a bat wrapped with barbed wire to brutally maul Foley’s face. That bat has now been sold in an auction!

According to news, the bat was at Goldin Auctions where it was sold for $19,680 with the bid started at $3,500 after being bid on 17 times.

The bat is an Alex Rodriguez model, Louisville Slugger C271. It’s the original bat as it comes with a letter of authenticity from WWE itself.

Considering how brutal the match was, the barbed wire wrapped bat played an exceptionally crucial role in the match. Therefore, it’s not completely shocking that it raked in nearly twenty thousand dollars at the auction.
