10 Wrestling Facts We Didn't Know Last Week (March 18)
6. Mick Foley Wanted To Be Involved In Diva Division Creative
Alicia Fox isn't the only one who wants to help fledgling female stars become a success in WWE, but she's a more predictable source than Mick Foley!
That's perhaps how some will feel regarding statements made by Mick to Sporting News recently, the 'Hardcore Legend' apparently pitched an idea to WWE creative that he work closely with the Divas.
Reading Foley's regular Facebook posts makes it clear that he's passionate about women being used correctly by the company in the modern era. During Mick's height as a performer, females were bit part players in the promotion, but he has been outspoken about the need for change in that regard.
It's pretty cool to imagine someone like Mick Foley lobbying the idea that he be involved in the creative process, solely for the purpose of helping the women's division gain more credibility. Previously, men like Dave 'Fit' Finlay have worked successfully working with the girls, so it can be done.
Unfortunately, WWE didn't express any interest in the idea, but Foley maintains it's still something he's interested in pursuing in the future.
