Mick Foley Thinks AEW Is A Serious Problem For WWE

As you will all know by now, three former WWE stars debuted at this past weekend’s AEW All Out show.

Bryan Danielson (Daniel Bryan), Adam Cole and Ruby Soho (Ruby Riott) all made their AEW debuts, and WWE legend Mick Foley thinks AEW are a genuine problem for WWE.

Foley posted a video entitled “WWE – WE’VE GOT A PROBLEM” on his Facebook page this morning, which you can see below.

During the video, he said:

“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,” Foley began. “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.”
