One more? Retirement is a strange concept in wrestling as you never know when someone is going to hang up their boots for good. While someone might seem to be done with their career, it can be difficult for someone to officially walk away. Now a legend is teasing a return to the ring after a very long time, and in this case it might be a rather different kind of match.

During the final edition of his Foley Is Pod podcast, WWE Hall Of Famer Mick Foley said that he is considering one final match for his sixtieth birthday, which would take place June 7, 2025. Foley said that it would be a deathmatch and not in WWE, with the incentive being dropping about 100lbs to get into ring shape. Foley named Matt Cardona and Jon Moxley as dream opponents, though nothing has been set in stone or announced.
He certainly has a history. Check out some of Foley’s in-ring career:
Opinion: This is the kind of thing that sounds a bit nuts on paper, which is where Foley tends to shine. I’m not sure if I can imagine him actually getting in the ring, but something that involves him losing 100lbs certainly sounds good for his health. Foley has taken ne heck of a beating in the ring, so hopefully if this does happen, he is as safe as possible, especially when it comes to protecting his head.
What do you think of the idea? What is the best match in Foley’s career? Let us know in the comments below.
