Quote:

Mick Foley has agreed to contractual terms with TNA, according to Wade Keller of PWTorch.com. Foley will debut with the company once he is contractually able to do so. His WWE contract expires at the end of August. Powell's POV: TNA just taped three weeks of television, so it could be a few weeks before he debuts on Impact. However, the company has a pay-per-view event on Sept. 14, so that's at least a possibility, assuming he doesn't have a non-compete clause in his WWE deal. This is obviously a huge signing for TNA and it will be interesting to see whether the company fully utilizes his in-ring, creative, and color commentator skills.

Man, fuck Foley.

Yeah, I said it.

Nah.

It's kind of hard to blame someone who spent 15 years destroying himself regularly and the next 7 years doing so on and off for wanting a lighter schedule at a good pay rate.

i was hoping he'd make the jump 6 years ago.

[Skip McGee]

im pretty surprised this actually happened. tna will prolly blow it as far as doing something interesting with him but its good to see someone like foley come in who might actually try to help out and not at the expense of the younger talent

I like how they keep going for established guys at the end of their careers and ignore the young up and comers.

It's a great formula. Ask Eric Bishoff how it worked for him.

Theres some good young talent there, but right now, I think they r looking for name recognition, and figure Mick will help sell PPV's and such, and maybe appear at some house shows, and increase tv ratings, etc.

That's nobody's fault but his own.

I didn't stick it on anyone else. All I said is you can't blame a guy for grabbing an easy paycheck when it's available.

I'm looking forward to Foley getting into it with Abyss. Foley should wrestle every so often and put the younger guys over. A nice feud with Abyss and even Matt Morgan could be interesting.

[Volture]

Awesome.

I wonder how much they're going to throw at him to get him to do a "fuck Vince" type promo.....
