Mick Foley Addresses Whether He Has Heat With WWE

Mick Foley Addresses Whether He Has Heat With WWE

Mick Foley was noticeably absent from Raw’s 30th-anniversary show this week. However, he would reply to a Facebook comment saying he had been invited but couldn’t attend due to having been on the road for so long. That, though, hasn’t stopped speculation building that he has heat with the company, especially since he is always open and frack on his podcast. So now, on the latest episode of his podcast, he has addressed whether he has heat with the company, telling listeners that while he may have had some over the years, right now, he hasn’t.

Absolutely not. I will say I have had some heat over the years. Maybe if you polled everyone in WWE, maybe I have heat with someone that I’m not aware of. But to the best of my knowledge, everything is going really well. I’m involved to some extent with this show on WWE. I’ve spent more time in Connecticut, not necessarily WWE headquarters, but right up the road working with WWE personnel on a show I’m really proud of, really, really proud of this, but there’s an extravagant amount of traveling because I have to travel to where the talent is available when they are available.

So for the 30th Anniversary of Raw, like every anniversary, falls in that third week of January, where they have, to me, their second biggest show of the year to promote. So you know going in that there’s only room for like three speaking roles and that everyone else is in the poker game. So that’s a long way to go when you’ve been on the road for 25 days, or whatever the case is, and you just want to see your family.Mick Foley

It was disappointing not to see Foley on Raw Is XXX since he is one of the biggest stars the show has ever had. Nevertheless, the fact he’d been traveling so much and wanted to spend time with his family was his prerogative. As he noted, it’s doubtful he would have had anything meaningful given the limited television time and a number of legends. Thus, he likely made the right decision, hopefully, though it won’t be long before he makes another appearance on WWE television because Foley is always great entertainment.
