Mick Foley appeared on Tuesday's Between The Ropes radio show and was asked to compare the time he's had in TNA to his last few years in WWE. "I swear this isn’t a cheap plug because the book won’t come out for at least another year – I think it’s early fall 2010," Foley said. "But I’m writing about those last couple of years and I think what happens is all it takes is one or two guys to decide that your time is up and that’s pretty much it.

"So when I was at WWE and did that last thing in the ring with Edge and I was fortunate – I wrote about that – I was really fortunate that my last time in the WWE was one of my best times to do that promo and have people that had forgotten and, quite honestly, maybe didn’t have the background that a lot of your fans do in watching. They heard that and they were like 'wow where did that come from?' And it had been really two years since I had been able to cut a real promo, an honest to goodness, microphone in hand, having a point promo.

"I had been an announcer and I had been a judge on Raw Idol, little things like that. But it had been so long since I had a chance to do something meaningful and now with TNA I feel I get to do that just about every week and that’s one of the things I like to do and my ideas are respected. If I feel like picking up a guitar and singing 'Tweak It', I’ve got the freedom to do that as well. So it has been fun and people have remarked to me, They’ve said 'you’ve gotta be having fun because no one is that good an actor.' To read more of the interview, visit the OrlandoSentinel.com.
