Mick Foley called into the Opie and Anthony radio show today, reports ProWrestling.NET. Foley had a lot of interesting things to say during the interview.
Foley confirmed rumors saying he left World Wrestling Entertainment due to Vince McMahon yelling at him over the headset during his announcing. It really got to him. Tension had been building between the two individuals for a few weeks and the final straw came during the Edge and Vickie Guerrero wedding reception back in July. The wedding singers had been going on for nearly three minutes and then he decided to say, "What a special moment." Vince became incensed and yelled, "Layout damn it!" Foley said he wanted to walk out of the building right then and there.
Foley said some people told him McMahon was actually being nicer to him than most announcers. JBL told him it wasn't going to get any easier.
Foley acknowledged the news of his bio being removed from the alumni section on WWE. He also said his character has been pulled from the upcoming "Legends of WrestleMania" video game.
The discussion moved on TNA and the hosts gave him a hard time by saying that he's working for a company that nobody watches. Foley said he could show up in TNA at any time. He was then pushed for a start date and Foley gave in, saying in three weeks. Foley may have misspoke when he said, "I'm gonna be in Long Island..." He then corrected himself and said TNA would be holding a show in Long Island over the weekend (which is actually scheduled for tonight). Foley also said TNA hasn't figured out what they're going to do for his debut appearance in the promotion.
Foley talked about his family being flmed for an A&E reality television show a few months ago for two weeks and 16 hours per day. Foley said the project was scrapped when network officials told him the footage shot was boring. The hosts suggested to Foley that he develop a drug problem or sleep with a friend of his children.
The hosts, who are big fans of WWE, told Foley that they would boycott WWE for one month because of the way Vince McMahon treated him.

I thought reality shows filmed things and then edited them so much to make them interesting Shows like the Osbournes and Hogan knows Best are so scripted its unbelievable. HKB the basically have writers to come up with a wacky new situation every week. All the 'family meetings' the osbournes had where written in by produces.

Most reality shows are they film the family for a few weeks or months at a time except when they sleep and yeah they basically cut a lot of shit to make it look like their lives have a plot

Dude, they get that it won't make a difference, they're fans of the WWE, however, they're just showing solidarity with a friend of the show in Foley, for the way he was treated. They're not expecting anything to change, they're doing it for Foley.

First, Mick Foley with a drug problem is funny to me. I don't know why.
Second, they wanted Foley to cheat on his wife by having sex with one of his children's friends!? What the f***!? And, how old are his kids? Aren't they like teenagers!?

ok you guys have missed so much out of this post.
first, writing a summary of a radio interview always misses something. this summary missed a lot.
the line about drung problem / kid thing was a joke, it's a comedy show, and foley laughed at the idea. jim norton (comedian on the show, 3rd mike) noted that foley's family is probably too nice and normal for a reality show, minus the christmas room he has. anthony followed it up saying that unless foley goes out and picks up a drug habit or has some scandal involving friends of his children (a la hulk hogan), no show for you.
as far as O and A being fans of WWE, they're not. they like the guys that come on but don't follow the product. they joked that they and their lsiteners will boycott wwe on foley's behalf because of the way he left, but to think they are going to follow up with it is ridiculous. it was said in a manner akin to "if you need anything, give me a call" when you have no desire to get a call.
