WWE legend Mick Foley has been a steadfast proponent of the organization, but it looks like his mind is starting to change. Foley recorded a video titled, “WWE — WE’VE GOT A PROBLEM”. In the clip, he explains what WWE is going wrong, why AEW is rising, and how the war has grown.
Take a look at the video below that he shared on his social media,
Mick Foley Says WWE Has A Problem – They “Might Be Their Own Worst Enemy”
In the clip, he explains that the WWE is no longer a place for aspiring talent to grow. He opened the video by saying,
“Hello, this is the hardcore legend Mick Foley. I’d like to title this video WWE, We’ve Got a Problem because I think you do and that problem is that WWE is no longer the place for talent to aspire to.”
He continued on to explain on AEW is doing a great job of bringing talent to their company with great storylines, building talent, and more.
“Part of it is because AEW is doing a great job of attracting great talent, proven talent, building other talent, creating storylines, but part of it is a problem of your own making.
I think younger talent sees the way that developmental characters are cut or left by the wayside or in the case of Karrion Kross, greatly watered down and even made a joke of when they debut on the main roster. If it’s not broke, don’t fix it.
If I was an aspiring talent now, big league talent with a major decision to make, I’m not sure that I would trust WWE creative to do the right thing with my career. You guys did wonders with me back in the day, that was a different time, different place.
If it was today, I’m not sure I would trust the powers to be with my career in their hands. And until that changes, WWE, you’ve got a problem.”
AEW is starting to pull ahead in the professional wrestling world. For far too long WWE has had a monopoly for much of this century. However, a little competition has shown the failings of the WWE.
What do you think? Do you agree with Mick’s comments and could WWE come back from where they are? Let us know in the comments below.
