New Mick Foley interview...ON WWE.COM
Full interview can be read here:http://www.wwe.com/inside/news/countdownwithfoleypage1
Hardcore Legend. Former three-time WWE Champion and commentator. New York Times bestselling author. Mick Foley knows precisely who he is and what he’s talking about. And he has plenty to say in his latest personal memoir, Countdown to Lockdown, available in bookstores now.
“Mrs. Foley’s baby boy” pulls no punches in his latest book, grappling with topics that range from his own personal grudge match with mortality; the media’s often-skewed perceptions of both the ring profession and its warriors; and the elements that ultimately prompted him to leave World Wrestling Entertainment. WWE.com’s Joey Styles, who called Foley’s greatest in-ring exploits at ECW, spoke personally with his longtime friend and WWE Alumnus regarding these and other subjects broached in Countdown to Lockdown.
WWE.com: So, Mick, how many personal memoirs is this with Countdown to Lockdown?
MICK FOLEY: This is number four for me. I guess I had trouble sleeping knowing that I was still tied with [Winston] Churchill after number three. I just needed one more to put me in the lead. [Laughs.]
The truth is, pro wrestling is such an incredibly vast, incredibly surreal world. There’s no telling how many words could be written about the subject – especially when the subject involves WWE.
WWE.com: That’s true. And it seems like your later memoirs cover shorter, but far more detailed periods of time. Can you elaborate on that?
FOLEY: It might surprise people to know that the person who convinced me to write the third memoir – The Hardcore Diaries – was actually Vince McMahon. We were on the WWE jet, which I had been on only a few times; in this case, there was a bad storm due to hit New York, and Vince really wanted me to be at Raw in Greensboro, N.C., to referee a match between John Cena and Edge. During what I thought was just pleasant small talk, Vince said he was a fan of my writing style and suggested that I write another book. I thought nothing else of it until two weeks later, when I got a call from our publisher, who said, “I heard you’re writing a book for us.” [Laughs.]
At that point, I had to think what my subjects would be, so I started looking at some sports autobiographies that I enjoyed when I was younger. Jim Bouton covered one season in detail with Ball Four. **** Butkus focused on a two-week period in Stop-action, and in Forty-Eight Minutes [by Bob Ryan and Terry Pluto], it was a single basketball game. I should probably add Buzz Bissinger’s Three Nights in August, which turned an otherwise forgettable three-game series in the middle of a long forgotten baseball season into this mesmerizing memoir. Anyway, I thought that if I could put that same amount of detail into the surreal world of professional wrestling, I would have the type of book that big fans especially would enjoy reading.

HERE IS DISK 2
terry funk getting clobbered w/ a chair..foley got the fuck out the ring when they really started throwing them
They finally have a Diva match with two women that can have a decent/good match and doesn't include Gail Kim and they give it 2mins. They could have sacrificed Rosa Mendez for that.
Goldust? The guy has been enhancement for years. Well, 'Dust should have some good matches with Dibiase and Teddy Jr. should/could come out better, if they let him.

Foley/Flair match on TNA
Foley cleared that table and hit floor ...HARD!!!!
i bet she'll turn heel at the PPV sunday and join the beautiful people...may also bring back her"stalker lesbian" persona

Wouldn't surprise me because that's how Russo thinks but it would be best if Angelina Love and Velvet were turned back heel and let Mickie chase the title.
While the debut of Mickie James is nice, more importantly is the debut of Bruce Prichard in a production role. Considering his close relationship with Jeff Jarrett, this looks to be something of a power move for Jarrett and it might be the first sign that the Hogan-Bischoff era is coming to an end. Why hire Prichard in the first place? Isn't Bischoff supposed to be running the production end? They fired Cornette just before they brought in Bischoff and Hulk and now they've brought in Brother Love after failing to bring in Paul Heyman. I think time might be running out for "Easy E".
Man I wanna fuck the shit outta Mickie James...
...and Velvet Sky....and Tara...and Madison Rayne....and Miss Techmacker as well
Great job by Madison and Tara during the match getting immediate heat by not letting Velvet Sky do her thing and shake her ass before entering the ring.
Why's that I recall when Hogan turned full heel in about 10 seconds. It can be done and it would make perfect sense.
Hogan was part of the NWO and revealed to be a member which is why it took him all of 10 seconds to go full blown heel. Cena was forced to join Nexus so it only makes sense that if he's to become a heel it will be a gradual thing.
Good insight, TNA needs to push young talent, get rid of the over 50 club. Ratings will slowly rise also they need better marketing.
probably but i just dont see wwe turning Cena heel anytime soon if at all.It might be like that JBL/HBK angle a while back, even though HBK was being cheered he was taking orders from JBL. Also Cena does a lot of make a wish apperances as well and i'm pretty sure the last thing a terminally ill child wants to see is their hero turn bad.
Cena does seem stuck. Maybe an injury(1 year off) and he comes back heel in the future.
Stuff like that TNA often gets wrong. Considering these same chicks have been beefing for months (but Foley and Abyss only got one match) they shouldn't be letting each other preen for the crowd. Somebody should be pissed enough to jump the other.
That's exactly the angle they're recycling and why Cena will not be turned heel. There's no payoff for a Cena heel turn right now. They would still have the same shitty writers and it would end up like Sting and Goldberg, where they never fully commit to the turn and it falls flat.
I don't see what he adds to TNA so this is a good thing. Now they can take 2/3 of his salary and pay a younger guy or two.
Damn been missing out on wrestling a couple of weeks. I see Tarvar is gone out of Nexxus. I knew it was only a matter of time. I do like the thought of Mr Perfect JR and Husky being added. That would give them a much needed boost in the intimidation factor. Just wish they'd give these niggas more than 2 wrestling moves. They're holding Nexxus back. Atleast they're giving Wade a solid push.
Good to see Edge gone from Raw. Just wasn't room for him and Randy on the same show. WWE had no idea what the fuck to do with Edge on Raw for whatever reason.
ITs going to be interesting to see what they do with Cena and Nexxus. Probably the closet thing they can do to making him heel. Gives the show a much needed boost though.
Haven't even seen TNA in awhile. Didn't even know Mickie James was on there.

Honestly, does anyone have clear knowledge as to who "they" really is? I've read it's Dixie Carters parents, Eric & Hogan, Paul Heyman. Who is it really?
im sure everyone knows by now its eric and hogan..dixie was signing TNA over to them last thursday
I heard that Tarver messed his groin and is supposed to be out for awhile which is why they got him out of Nexus.He isn't that good of a wrestler but he does a good job with his character.And they are holding Nexus back. I understand that they aren't experiences but I'm pretty sure that they all with the exception of Otunga can do more than what they've shown in the ring thus far.
It shows just how bad the Raw writers are that they couldn't do anything with Edge who was the most hated man in the company 2 years ago,is a great wrestler, and outstanding on the mic. And yet somehow on the "A" show he became an afterthought.

She showed up this past week and hopefully TNA can get the Knockout division back on track. They need to bring back Awesome Kong and Cheerleader Melissa. Things would be alot more interesting with them around.
DVRing it so I haven't watched much but Lethal Lockdown was pretty good. Main event should be great.
I pick Anderson and a heel turn.

Well "they" are Hogan and Bischoff.Abyss and Jeff Jarrett were both in on it and the heel turn was made by Jeff Hardy who is the new TNA World Champion.
Well.....that swerve was definitaly....different.
I liked Bound for Glory.
I liked Bound for Glory.
So are they going to say that since Angle wasn't the one who was pinned that he didn't "lose" the match therefore doesn't retire...?
co/sign brother,
cant wait for impact on thursday, i wonder whats going to happen with joe, i see him joining with nash,sting,and pope but from what i read on nash retiring, things can go another route with him, hope nash sticks around a bit longer.
so i guess scott hall and xpac will be reinstated,and nash isnt retiring after all..
Seemed good, just not on the usually high BFG level.
This has potential. The problem I have already is that if makes Fortune a secondary player, like when Hogan's nWo did it to the Horsemen in WCW.
So are they going to say that since Angle wasn't the one who was pinned that he didn't "lose" the match therefore doesn't retire...?
Well Dixie can always tell him he can't retire and TNA "needs" him to help fight back against the Jarrett/Hogan/Bischoff regime.
No, Nash can go. Phase him out and put Joe in his spot. Then Sting can put over Jeff Hardy in a title match and then he can be phased out with Pope taking his spot and getting some wins over Jeff Jarrett.
so i guess scott hall and xpac will be reinstated,and nash isnt retiring after all..
Don't even joke about that.
