Mick Foley On Being Excited To Work With Sasha Banks On RAW Brand

WWE Hall Of Famer and new RAW General Manager Mick Foley wrote the following on his official Facebook page, in addition to posting a photo of himself with Sasha Banks and Becky Lynch in a backstage promo segment from this week's WWE TV.

THIS MAGIC MOMENT

This backstage promo for the #WWE Facebook page might not have seemed like a big deal, but to the three of us -me, Sasha Banks and Becky Lynch, it was very special; two of the best wrestlers on the planet, and one of their most vocal supporters (I really did drive 12 hours to watch their May 2015 #Takeover match) on camera together for the first time.

I am thrilled to be working with the #LegitBoss every Monday on #RAW, and know that Becky will be a big success on #SmackDownLive. I thought the #WWE draft was a big night for #WomensWrestling - with Charlotte drafted 3rd overall, and Sasha and Becky both going within the first 15. It was important to both me and Stephanie McMahon that we draft a woman in the first round as a statement. In retrospect, I wish I'd pushed harder for Sasha and Becky to go in the top ten - but I think the sky is the limit for these two.
