Foley going to TNA

We have been reporting for several weeks now that Mick Foley's deal with WWE expires on September 1st and he has stated that he doesn't believe he will re-sign after being unhappy with his new role as an announcer on Smackdown.

Wade Keller of PWTorch.com is reporting today that Foley has agreed to contractual terms with TNA, and he will debut with the company when he is contractually able to do so.

As we mentioned earlier, Foley's deal with WWE ends September 1st and TNA just recently taped their shows for the next three weeks, which means Foley's TNA debut could be at No Surrender on September 14th, unless there is a no-compete clause in his contract.

We will have more on this story as it develops.

Foley should wrestle again...

Cena being off TV will help refresh him and people will probably be excited too see him again but yeah sucks for Cryme Tyme, but they are alrady pretty over with the crowd..so they should be fine

Good news for them.  I didn't know they tape three weeks in advance.

i think they tape there shows because the company can save face and edit the bad stuff out. Like if something happens that reflects them in a bad light. WWE used to do it years ago until Nitro went live and embarrased them by having one of there guys on Nitro the same night as he was on a taped Raw

it also gives wrestlers a much better and less tiring / hectic schedule with the company.

Yeah, I remember when WWE used to do that.  I think it makes for a much better product when it's live or at least on tape delay.  I just didn't know that TNA taped for up to 3 weeks.

outside Kurt/Joe, tna sucks. But Kurt/Joe rock the fuckin' house. Why tna doesn't build off this is beyond me. I'd have each wrester design themselves after that mma style they use.

I heard Kurt has been training MMA a few times a week for a while now

[wilz]

i heard that to. wonder if 's training up to take on Brock (Kurt has beat Brock a few times in Amatuer Wrestling Tournaments.

But after Brocks last fight Kurt should be trying to cut weight and fight light heavyweight

[Sikotic™]

Kurt is too banged up to fight MMA.

It needed to take off Joe/Angle and have more MMA style wrestling. If it did that, then it would make sense for a 6 sided ring, for the X Division, but for now it's wasted up former stars, stars that aren't WWE type, but wrestle like WWE, and Kurt Angle and Samoa Joe, who are on their own as top of the promotion.
