Mick Foley Talks Intercontinental Title Ladder Match, Jon Stewart?s RAW Appearance, More

Posted: Mar 15th 2015 By: Marc Middleton

WWE Hall of Famer Mick Foley recently spoke with Scott Fishman of The Miami Herald. The full interview is at this link. Below are highlights:

Roman Reigns going to WrestleMania 31:
?Even though I was pulling for Daniel Bryan to win the Rumble, as soon as I found out it was going to be Roman Reigns I thought there would be some good possibilities and stories that could go on to make it really interesting. If I was commissioner still I would try to do my best to put the matches and the guys in them over as much as I could. That was always my goal with whatever I did. If there was or is a change of re-balancing of power in the future, I hope they would go with someone who could give the show a different feel. I think those shifts are really important every once in a while.?

The Intercontinental Ladder Match at WrestleMania:
?My oldest son [Dewey] and I were talking about how the championship and how it has become a hot commodity because I think there is an understating that these guys are going to put on a match that is going to be hard for anyone to top. That?s what you need to make a great card. If that?s anything but a classic, I?d be personally disappointed. I?m looking forward to that one. I want to see Sting and Triple H like anyone else. I?m going to go out on a limb here to say there better be a spot for AxelMania because it?s running wild. I?m telling you right now. A pairing of AxelMania down the road with Damien Sandow or Mizdow could be the Mega Powers for the new generation.?

The Daily Show?s Jon Stewart appearing on WWE RAW:
?I thought he was great. He is such an incredibly important person in our culture, yet not every one of our fans is familiar with him. They know when someone knows their stuff. The idea that someone who talks to Presidents and world leaders knows every intricate detail of our WWE storylines is really impressive. I thought it was a really good appearance. I thought Seth Rollins was excellent. I thought the low blow coming from a collegiate soccer player was appropriate. I think Jon?s kids will remember his appearance on Raw as being more important than his conversations with presidents.?
