Mick Foley Talks About Being Legit Angry At Jon Moxley During Their Feud In WWE

With a career spanning over three-decades, it is safe to say that Mick Foley has had his share of feuds that have left a lasting impression on the “Hardcore Legend”. It now seems that one feud never fully transpired due to him not being medically cleared.

During a recent interview with Busted Open Radio, Foley went into detail on just how much the feud with Jon Moxley during his time as Dean Ambrose in WWE affected him mentally.

“This angle with Moxley, it required me to go to some dark places. The problem was, I couldn’t get out of them. It wasn’t like when I would go cut the Kane Dewey promo in the basement of Paul E’s cameraman while his mom was doing the ironing and my wife and two kids are at a park two blocks away, and I would come out of there fresh as a daisy and I am ready to go. When I would get into the storyline, I couldn’t get out. It was like this cloud.

“I don’t want to be overly dramatic, but it was around me all the time and it was affecting me. Especially when I saw Moxley writing about my children. So, I come up to him at a TV taping with Dusty. I asked Dusty if he would come up with me, just so I could talk to him. I said, ‘hey man, whatever you do, please stop mentioning my children.’”

Foley would then go on to speak about how Moxley continued to mention his children on social media, which led to Foley getting legit angry with Mox.

“He thinks it’s an angle, whereas I am 100% asking him as a father not to mention my children. He reads it is, ’turn the volume up on Foley’s children.’ So the next tweet that comes out is even worse, more foreboding for the future of my family.

“Now I text him and say, ‘hey man, I was not joking,’ and I think okay, now it’s over. The next tweet is even worse. I am blowing a gasket every day, I am cutting more F-bombs in front of the family than they have ever heard in the entirety of their lives. I am so angry at this guy.”

As time has passed the two have grown to have a good friendship. Recently when Tony Khan announced that Moxley would be entering rehab for alcohol, Foley sent out words of encouragement and positive thoughts to him.
