Mick Foley called into the Opie and Anthony radio show today, reports ProWrestling.NET. Foley had a lot of interesting things to say during the interview.
Foley confirmed rumors saying he left World Wrestling Entertainment due to Vince McMahon yelling at him over the headset during his announcing. It really got to him. Tension had been building between the two individuals for a few weeks and the final straw came during the Edge and Vickie Guerrero wedding reception back in July. The wedding singers had been going on for nearly three minutes and then he decided to say, “What a special moment.” Vince became incensed and yelled, “Layout damn it!” Foley said he wanted to walk out of the building right then and there.
Foley said some people told him McMahon was actually being nicer to him than most announcers. JBL told him it wasn’t going to get any easier.
Foley acknowledged the news of his bio being removed from the alumni section on WWE. He also said his character has been pulled from the upcoming “Legends of WrestleMania” video game.
The discussion moved on TNA and the hosts gave him a hard time by saying that he’s working for a company that nobody watches. Foley said he could show up in TNA at any time. He was then pushed for a start date and Foley gave in, saying in three weeks. Foley may have misspoke when he said, “I’m gonna be in Long Island…” He then corrected himself and said TNA would be holding a show in Long Island over the weekend (which is actually scheduled for tonight). Foley also said TNA hasn’t figured out what they’re going to do for his debut appearance in the promotion.
Foley talked about his family being flmed for an A&E reality television show a few months ago for two weeks and 16 hours per day. Foley said the project was scrapped when network officials told him the footage shot was boring. The hosts suggested to Foley that he develop a drug problem or sleep with a friend of his children.
The hosts, who are big fans of WWE, told Foley that they would boycott WWE for one month because of the way Vince McMahon treated him.
