13 Things We Learned From Mick Foley On Stone Cold's WWE Network Podcast

by Brad Hamilton

1. What He's Looking For From WrestleMania 32

For the final question Stone Cold asks his friend what he's looking to get out of WWE's landmark show this Sunday, and Mick replies that whatever happens he thinks if a talent isn't out there looking to steal the show then they're in the wrong business.

He feels there are four or five matches that can do it, mentioning that there are the bouts that are supposed to - Taker/Shane and Triple H/Roman Reigns - but then there are others where the performers have an unexpected opportunity.

Mick names the women's championship triple threat as one such bout, and says he likes to think that ten years from now they'll be able to look back on this night as one of the most important nights in the history of the business; the night women's wrestling "arrived."

He then namedrops "maniacs" like Kevin Owens and a guy such as Zack Ryder who has never had a chance on the big stage like this and says there's no telling what could happen. He knows all the guys want 32 to be spoken of in the same reverent tones as WrestleManias 3, 17, etc. Mick then closes with a Vince impression plugging Mania 32 and we wrap things up.

This was a pretty good installment of the Austin podcast and managed to cover some new ground, which is difficult for a guy like Foley with multiple memoirs and documentaries available on his life, as well as already being a frequent guest of Stone Cold's. It's not must-see TV, but it's a fun, breezy hour of discussion between two of the all-time greats.
