Personally I think TNA would be in a much better place had Mick signed that contract with them.

Seriuosly, his ability to get talent over is severely underrated. Not because of how big a star he is, or how good of a match he can work, but just how good he can make them look. In the buildup and in the end, just look at Orton. I'd even say Mick was the main guy to really get HHH over as a dominant champion in late 99/early 2000. After a few classic bouts and an amazing fued and promo exchange led by Foley. It wasn't about how big of a star Foley was, he was way over but it was about him not just giving the rub but giving it well. In the end it seemed as though Foley who was a lesser star than Austin left a better mark on HHH than even he did. Just like he left a way better rub on Orton than HHH or Taker.

But yea, There's no cons to a Foley/Melina/Nitro fued. It's not hurting anything. It's pushing Nitro and Melina and creating 2 potential stars and giving them a huge boost, and it's not at the expense of anything. All it takes is Foley doing the job which he'd prefer to do, and him losing has no bearing on the company. It's not like you're expending or jobbing a main eventer for this project.

But yea, Melina would be so key to that fued.
