And Xero, Foley proved a long time ago he isn't gonna draw ratings either.
Gail's potential is greater than Foley's, WWE gets a new young wrestler, and TNA gets another has been.

Kim was a giant loss for TNA, no doubt about that. They have the better of the two Women's divisions. But WWE's pick up of Kim in no way will improve the way they book the women's division. Sure, you might get a good match here or there, but Women's wrestling will NEVER be seen as serious competition in WWE. It hasn't been for 20 years and never will be. It will ALWAYS be about the TNA first and foremost and the actual wrestlers and wrestling matches will be overshadowed by bikini contests and bullshit like that.
I'm not trying to justify TNA hiring Foley. I think it's a ridiculous move. But comparing the two moves, Foley's name alone will draw more than Kim ever will in WWE.
It comes down to either TNA getting name power and a new, known character on TV and WWE getting a jobber* who will never amount to anything more than a side show attraction. TNA clearly has the better deal here, but they took the bigger hit.
*I consider all WWE women jobbers compared to other divisions.
