Mick Foley is "disappointed" by Cesaro's recent exit from WWE.

The Hall Of Famer posted a new video on YouTube to share his thoughts, and ol' Mick ain't happy. He reckons Vince McMahon made several mistakes with Cesaro, and thinks the Swiss wrestling machine should've been elevated to World Champion status at least once during his run with the company.

Mick also said that he was never fond of McMahon publicly burying the wrestler on Steve Austin's podcast many moons ago. Vince told the world that Cesaro didn't have "it" - Foley hated that, and pointed out that Cesaro managed to "come up big every time he’s been handed the ball".

In other words, he's made the best of some seriously dire material.

Rather definitively, Mick said that "WWE’s loss is going to be professional wrestling’s gain". He predicts that Cesaro will "do great things" outside the McMahon bubble, and fully expects him to become a World Champ elsewhere (Foley didn't specifically name AEW).

Wrapping things up, the legend called Cesaro "a great representative of our business", and said he'll be watching to see what the guy can do "when the restraints are off".
