- The following is a possible spoiler for tonight's Summerslam PPV, stop reading if you do not want to be spoiled:
- Mick Foley was originally planned to be a part of tonight's Hell in a Cell match, partly to play off of the angle with Edge, and partly to playoff of the 10th anniversary of his Hell in a Cell match with the Undertaker. Foley was contacted this week and told there was a change of plans, and that he wouldn't be needed. Foley's contract is set to end soon, and he isn't expected to re-sign.

NANANA-NANANA HEY HEY GOODBYE

Ouch! This sucks. Foley's last promo shows how valuable he can be if used properly - on air and in ring talent, not as a comentator with vinnie screaming in his ear.this could bite vince in the ass!

Kane is going to interfere in the HIAC. You heard it here first.

AH MAN, NOW WHEN HE DOESN'T SHOW UP IT WON'T BE A SURPRISE.

They say that Foley isn't needed because they found someone else to take his spot. It could be Orton....but i doubt it. He DOES have a history with both men, including fighting the dead man himself in a HITC. But moving Orton to Smackdown would be the gayest move ever. Unless they turn Punk and/or Batista heel...

To the above person, that *is* a spoiler. Foley has always been hardcore, so Edge snapping on him he respects, so it says Foley would have interfered and helped Edge win, if anything.

***SPOILER***
The Ultimate Warrior will not be involved in any way at SummerSlam tonight. So now you know what won't happen!

This summerslam is not worth any of your money. They insult us with shit booking. Everything is super rushed with no logic. Garbage. Save your money.

Just more awesome foley promos for ROH

What shit booking? The show hasn't even happened yet!
Posted By: Bad Man (Guest) on August 17, 2008 at 06:32 PM
-wave- Bye Mick! Let me be the first to wish you well on your future endeavours which will likely include Orlando in 90 days. Guess trying to milk some sympathy from Vince McMahon didn't work, how could I have guessed that.

TNA will find a way to mess this up.

does WWE own the three faces of foley? mankind maybe.. but cactus or dude?

"What shit booking? The show hasn't even happened yet! "
Like you need to watch a WWE show nowadays to know the booking will be shit.

Why does anyone even care about Foley anymore? He's pissed on his legacy and is a bigger whiner then Bret Hart. Seriously... he's like a moody woman. Everytime his boss yells at him... he throws a fit and says "I quit."
It's called a job, Mick. Everyone gets yelled at by their boss at one time or another. Deal.

that's weird when you spell TEE ENN AYY like that it spells tenay

Mick will not be a factor in TNA, WWE or ROH because he is not committed to a full time run. All he cares about is promoting his books and other outside interests. If TNA did sign him, he would quit within three months. Even if he did not, he would not increase their ratings. TNA needs to stop signing WWE rejects and focus on their booking. They have enough talent, homegrown and otherwise, they need to get people to care about their product. I quit watching TNA because of the booking.

uh, WHO CARES!!!!!!!!!!!!! NO ONE expected him to be a part of it, YAWN!!! Oh yeah, the marks on this rag do not know any better. I forgot about the tools!!!!!

It's sad that so many wrestling fans care more about a tidbit of fairly insignificant WWE news than one of the biggest annual events in puroresu. Yay Goto!

There should be less ppvs so when they do occur, it makes it more special and exciting and it'll get more buys.
