soup23 Posted August 31, 2014 Report Share Posted August 31, 2014 I fully admit I do have a scorned woman vibe with Mick. I remember being thirteen when Have a Nice Day came out. I read many aspects of that book and saw how they reflected my own life. One year of wrestling in high school, check. Overweight guy that relies of self- deprecating jokes to win people over, check. I saw myself as being a Mick Foley type guy with potential. Then, WM 16 happened and it was like finding out that Santa Claus wasn't real. I felt really betrayed and have taken most of Foley's comments and actions with a grain of salt since. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBadMick Posted August 31, 2014 Report Share Posted August 31, 2014 Well Chad, you've got a family to support now, just like Mick. Perhaps you'll agree with him again - you'll be chasing the big bucks too ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradhindsight Posted October 13, 2014 Report Share Posted October 13, 2014 Just catching up on this one (which is not like me for a stellar series like WTBBP) - I never knew the origin of the Foley scorn there Chad. While I remember being disappointed he wrestled at Mania 2000, the fact that he didn't come back for quite some time after retconned it as being ok for me. Plus we thought maybe he'd win it as a going away gift (and I thought he was very good in that match - outside missing the elbow badly - going quasi-heel mid match).
