    So much about HHH is holding Foley down. :-)

  • Keelan Balderson

    Well it’s only for a week, and he’s not wrestling.

  • Psychadellica

    I thought it was pretty funny how we were all talkin about having an exciting gm and hoping it wasnt gonna be teddy, and then Foley comes on and almost immediately makes a tag team match.

    I thought the fans reaction to Cindy Lauper when she came out is very disrepectful. She’s contributed more to WWE than Jim Carrey & Pete Rose combined. Even if they don’t know her that well doesn’t give them the right to boo Cindy like that. It must have been a painful experience for her. I can only imagine..

  • deadman

    Shade, do you mean Drew Carrey? Anyway, doesn’t matter, I had similar thoughts that I really wish she would have gotten a better ovation when she came out. For people under 30 who don’t recall or never saw, she was huge for Wrestling, she had MTV covering wrestling when MTV was the coolest thing in the world. She really brought Wrestling into the mainstream, which hasn’t been acheived before (or since) the Attitude Era.

  • Shade

    Lol yea I really meant Drew Carrey..

  • JoshBryan

    Omg! Just Mick Foley be GM. He was good as a Commissioner WWE holle!
