Jon Moxley on Talk Is Jericho

**Evil Vito** · 06-04-2019, 09:50 AM

I remember feeling so weird when he signed with WWE in the first place. This is a guy who had made a name for himself working a lot of violent, deathmatch-style matches and his promos, while brilliant, were far from PG. Lots of F fucking bombs.

Like, he deserved to be signed but it shocked me that they had interest in him but it seemed like they were destined to have a clash of ideas.

They were actually going to reference this. He was supposed to be Mick Foley's "last feud ever" in 2012 with Dean blaming Mick for a generation of fans mutilating themselves via deathmatches and backyard wrestling. No idea how they'd have pulled it off in a PG climate which is probably why it got axed in the first place.

Probably for the best, Mick probably would've felt the need to take one last big bump despite being 47 years old at the time.
