It’s a big weekend for AEW fans as the annual Double or Nothing pay-per-view is set to air live from Flushing, New York. It was announced earlier this week that Mick Foley will be making his AEW debut on Sunday as he’s set to co-host the pre-show alongside Renee Paquette.
During a recent media call ahead of Double or Nothing, Tony Khan was asked if Mick Foley could potentially wrestle in an AEW ring, and Tony made it clear that the decision is up to Foley himself.
“Right now, we’re focused on Mick broadcasting and lending his experience to AEW. So much goodwill in the pro wrestling community exists for Mick Foley, and to have him officially as part of AEW—hopefully that increases everyone’s goodwill towards AEW. That’s part of the idea.
I can’t speak for Mick Foley as to whether he’d want to wrestle or if he’s going to wrestle anytime soon, but if he ever does, I would love for him to do it in AEW. But I also don’t want to put him in a situation in which he’ll be uncomfortable. I want him to feel good about this.
I know he’s taken so many big hits and had such an amazing career with so many spectacular moments. Physically, I would only ever ask him to wrestle if he felt up to it and that he could live up to the physical demands.”
