Ironically, the best thing that came out of Mick's TNA run was that it literally is what led to his induction into the WWE Hall of Fame. Mick has admitted that WWE (all on its own accord) promoting his 2010 book Countdown to Lockdown on WWE programming while he was still with TNA is what made Foley decide that whenever he'd eventually be asked to be inducted he'd accept, as prior to that he was thinking he'd always decline since he still harbored bad feelings from how his last run ended.

And despite still watching WWE, it’s why I stopped watching TNA. It was fine for someone like Jeff Hardy or Christian to come in and show why they should get the top belt because WWE was never going to at the time and those guys had something to prove, but when all these former world champions kept coming in to take that top spot, it put a sour taste in my mouth. For all its faults, WWE in the Ruthless Aggression Era was pushing younger talents, homegrown guys, or guys who were never given a chance in WCW and worked their way to the top. The only exception was probably Undertaker, but he was wrestling the best matches of his entire career at the time and his world title runs were elevating younger guys like Batista and Edge.

I think I said "well at least we should never see him for free anymore". Anyway I know Mick had tag matches and Royal Rumble appearances after that but then the doctors outright refused to clear him ever again so that was that.

I fweel a video on the TNA Legends title is in order. It showed up when the MEM was around, and I really don't even remember how it disappeared, as eventually there's only so much of Russo's booking you can stand to watch.

His TNA run was actually one of my favorite memories. He was hilarious as champion. Acting like the the title was his baby. Loved his surprise win against Sting. Especially in a cage match. So props for that. God I miss TNA. And no, it's not still around. Just in name. Also him and JB were comedy gold. I still remember his odd references to Tori Amos

His rivalry with Abyss is always my favorite from his run in TNA. "It was YOU, Chris!" lives rent free in my head

But I have one question: Why did Mick Foley refer to Abyss as Chris? Do the fans know about Abyss' real name being Chris Park? Did Russo tell Foley to say Abyss' real name? If you're gonna mention a masked wrestler by name, I feel that you should only call them by their wrestler's name and not their real name.

@@ricardonb6375 Years before Mick came into TNA, back when Abyss had Father James Mitchell as his manager (and during the time James was abusing Abyss), James would be the one to reveal that his real name was Chris Park, and that James was his father

I remember a particular match during Mick Foley’s TNA run where he competed in a Fatal 4 Way Ultimate Sacrifice match in which all competitors have to put something on the line and the loser i.e. the one who got pinned forfeits whatever he wagered. Mick Foley lost the match but he still remained as World Champion since Sting pinned Kurt Angle who wagered his status as Main Event Mafia boss.

Considering their history in two of the greatest tag teams of all time with their respective brothers, it was kind of a cool idea to team Scott and Booker up.

I've always been Mick Foley fan later on started to realize he was working with Ring of Honor until you sign the contract with TNA it was fine with him dealing with the main event Mafia and working with young TNA Stars it works fine until Mick Foley became the heavyweight champion after beating sting in a cage match I was happy to see Mick Foley with the title The match could have been better with sting and Mick Foley

I did too. I loved his run but after Hogan I didn't follow TNA closely till about 2012. 2011 was a terrible year. So many botches I remember and bad matches and stories. 2010 I didn't have cable. But I was against the 4 sided ring coming back and pushing only WWE guys other than Anderson Pope and RVD which I liked

@@I_Am_The_Social_Reject Good so it not just me! 2009 TNA for me was mixed bag! 2010 was bad especially getting rid of the six side ring I was not happy about that! 2011 had some good stuff in it but for the most part it was 2010 the sequel!
