Mick Foley Says Working With CM Punk After His Return To WWE In 2012 Helped Him Regain His Confidence

WWE Hall of Famer Mick Foley recently took to his "Foley Is Pod" podcast, where he spoke about topics such as how former WWE Champion CM Punk refused to take shots at him and his weight because Punk said he won't do that to one of the best wrestlers of all time.

Mick Foley said:

“[Punk] looks at the guy and goes, ‘This is Mick Foley. He’s one of the best wrestlers of all time. We know he’s heavy, I’m not gonna go there, that’s cheap heat.”

Mick Foley also spoke about how working with CM Punk after his return to the promotion in 2012 helped him regain his confidence.

Mick Foley said:

“In large part because of Punk, I start to regain my sense of confidence in my ability to cut promos. It’s not in fashion right now, but you need to point out the fact that he lifted people’s games in ways you wouldn’t expect.”
