One more time would be nice. Wrestlers are in a weird situation when it comes to retirement. Unlike other athletes, wrestlers are able to keep going for one more match or appearance, as they can keep trying for one more big day. Some wrestlers are able to walk away, but it might not always be under the best circumstances. That might be the situation again for an all time legend.
During a recent edition of his Foley Is Pod podcast, WWE Hall of Famer Mick Foley said that he is more than likely going to turn down any offer to ever return to WWE TV again. Since he is unable to remember a written promo due to memory loss issues, Foley felt that he would be unable to help in the way that he wanted to. Foley said that he did not want to return to WWE, get a cheap pop and promote something, but rather help a wrestler or a storyline. Foley last appeared in WWE in July 2019, where he was attacked by the Fiend.
Opinion: As sad as it is to see, this is one of those things that is going to happen to everyone at some point. Eventually every wrestler is going to have to step away and not make appearances anymore. That unfortunately seems to be the case for Foley now, as his health issues are causing him to lose the ability to do the thing that he does as well as almost anyone in the history of wrestling.
What do you think of Foley’s statement? Who did he help the most in his career? Let us know in the comments below.
