Do you think Foley is still wrestling for "the love of the business"?
I had a conversation yesterday and it started about WCW bringing in KISS, Master P, David Arquette, etc. people that "were only really looking for another paycheck" and the conversation slowly moved to people like Mick Foley, Terry Funk, and even touched on Nash's "for the money" gimmick. Foley didnt want to be just a commentator in the WWE so he went to TNA to wrestle again, do you think he did it for the money? Do you think that there are any guys who still wrestle for the fans, or is TNA just another paycheck for alot of these older wrestlers?

No. I wonder if he thinks about the things he said in his promo for his 'retirement' match at No Way Out 2000 every time he laces up his boots. You know, the bit about being not coming back after and being a whore.

Sovereigntywillpr has done some stupid things
well I'm guessing the offer and job security with TNA over WWE isn't that great. he might make more but harder on the body(not that there seems to be much with the E)

I guess it would depend on what that paycheck is, and what he was being offered in WWE... I think a little bit of both.

Remeber when Vince talked about his finances on Raw i think, talking about money he put away for his parents...

...I wonder if that was real, and if so, did they loose there money they where putting away with that 401K Scam in the states...the price of college when he retired, along with the cost of living has changed, can't blame him for taking care of his family. You'd think being a long term anouncer in a company that's been around for 50 years and still going strong would be a better idea to take care of his family and make money though.
If he would just rather still wrestle I wonder if that's for himself or that fans though?..

I hate reading your posts. Do us all a favour, and think about what you want to say and construct your thoughts in sentences rather than splurging all over the keyboard at once please.

I'll try and write a thesis next time, or at least an essay. So, if you don't like my posts than do yourself a favour a skip over them.

Foley can stay around as long as he wants. I am and always will be a Mick Foley fan. His stuff in TNA isn't his best work but he is so good at selling a feud that he's a real asset to the company.

All that being said I'm going to assume he's doing his TNA stint because a love of the buisness to give back to something that gave him so much, more so than his desire get in the ring.

I think the business is so different now from what a guy like Foley 'loved' that there's no way he's doing it for anything other than money. I could be wrong, though.

To everybody bitching about long posts, no offense, this is called a DISCUSSION forum. So what if Noid, or any other poster, writes a long post. If you guys have ADD, don't read the fuckin post.

I don't think he's doing it for the love of the business anymore. I don't think he's doing it for the money either.

I think he's really trying to put one over Vince by helping TNA to increase it's profile. I think Mick really believes that TNA will be bigger than WWE one day.

Isn't that his new gimmick?

Thank you...
Funny you mention "thesis" because

a) It'd take someone with a masters in child psychology to understand your ramblings, and

b) Your statements need to be shorter, and not longer.

Thanks for playing though

Yep, I don't think anyone (even Mick Foley with all his concussions and what not) could rightly believe that TNA can overtake WWE in at least the near future, especially with writing like this...

Making Styles champion is a positive sign, but as long as the Main Event Mafia angle is around, then it isn't going to change.

How long was the Main Event Mafia meant to be around anyway? And why haven't they put over any new talent, like they were supposed to, yet?

Foley talked about considering joining TNA in his 3rd book...they asked him to join.

I wish he hadn't.

Your guess is as good as mine man. I think it has something to do with the fact that TNA thinks that every guy that the WWE lets go is going to be "the next big thing of TNA."

Well shit! If that's the case, the WWE needs to cut Primo, Jamie Noble, Jimmy Wang Yang, and The Great Khali asap. Granted if they did that, at least 2 of those 4 would end up in World Elite.

You think so, but not neccessarily.

Anyway. The future of TNA isn't going to be fromthe remnanats of WWE's cast-offs. That's not tosay there isn't value in some WWE guys, but there direction is far to inter-twined with WWE guys.
One of WWe's big edges is/(was) in promoting new guys. In keeping things fresh. They too (WWE) need more of that again. IMO, that's the key to sucess in 'rasslin.
