WWE Hall of Famer Mick Foley recently spoke with Metro on how Nick Gage and Jon Moxley have taken the torch from him and Terry Funk and ran a couple of laps on their own with it.
Mick Foley said:
“Who am I to tell someone their style of wrestling is wrong? I had the type of stuff that I enjoyed watching.” “I can appreciate lucha [libre], for example, but it wasn’t what I wanted to do. I like the wild matches and these guys have taken that torch that Funk and I lit, and ran a couple of laps on their own with it.”
Mick Foley also talked about his experience when he attended a GCW Fight Club Event, which Jon Moxley and Nick Gage headlined.
Mick Foley said:
“It was a really great experience with me because the people there, they feel like that promotion is there for them.” “And that’s part of the secret. There’s all different types of wrestling out there for all different types of fans, and then you find a product that caters to fans who really take their wrestling seriously – I tell you, GCW’s a great show!”
“Mox versus Gage is gonna get the lion’s share of the attention, but the rest of the card was solid to spectacular! There were a lot of risks being taken, but no one was going the death match route until the very end.”
Mick Foley then talked about wishing he could bring back Cactus Jack for a match with Matt Cardona.
Mick Foley said:
“Oh, can you imagine the heat that Cardona would have if Cactus Jack came back for one last match? I can’t do it – I’m just saying, imagine! That’d be great.”
