WWE Hall of Famer Mick Foley has recently discussed his WWE debut match, opening up about an injury he suffered during the match.
Mick Foley is remembered for performing some of the scariest spots in WWE history. The former WWE Champion has now revealed that he dislocated his jaw in his first WWE match.
In a clip promoting his Broken Skull Sessions interview, Foley stated that his WWE debut was against The British Bulldogs, alongside Les Thornton.
Revealing that the Dynamite Kid’s clothesline was more deadly than initially thought, Foley said:
“At a certain point, you can see me start to fire off (punches) on (Davey Boy Smith). The worst-looking punches in the world. But I see Tommy (Dynamite Kid) start shaking, like, ‘This is offensive to me that he’s trying to pull this.’ My big move, the flying elbow, where I don’t just hit him, I hit him and I spin in the air, and I hear laughter. I wasn’t prepared for the laughter and I look up and he hasn’t sold it a bit.
“Then everything that Tommy did hurt for weeks. Every single thing. He sends me in (to the ropes) and it wasn’t how hard, because I’ve seen other clotheslines that were harder; Stan Hansen, Bradshaw. But it was the fact that Tommy followed me in. So just as I’m coming off those ropes here is his bicep hitting me right in the jaw. I didn’t know the injury was a dislocated jaw, but three weeks I couldn’t chew anything. To this day I don’t think I could make my eyes roll up in my head like I think they did. It was just everything he did was 100%.”
Recently Foley took to Twitter to urge WWE to create an all-women’s brand. Charlotte Flair has explained why that she’d rather wrestle on a show with male competitors.
