This week’s episode of WWE Monday Night Raw was a heartbreaking episode for Mick Foley fans. Foley has been the General Manager of Raw ever since the brand split was brought back last year, but this week Stephanie McMahon officially fired Mick.

It was a somber night for certain members of the Raw roster such as Sami Zayn, Bayley and Sheamus and Cesaro. Mick Foley supported those stars throughout his run with the red brand, and now they’re at the mercy of the one and only Stephanie McMahon.
Foley confirmed months ago that at some point he would be taking time off to get hip surgery, which is likely the reason why he was written off of TV.
It remains to be seen if he’ll return after he recovers, but one way or another Foley took to social media after he was fired to thank the fans for supporting him.

Mick had his ups and downs during his time as Raw General Manager, but through it all he just hopes that he was able to make a difference.
