Mick Foley is probably one of the most universally loved WWE legends around. He has broken his body over and over again for other wrestlers.
One such wrestler that he broke his body for most famously was The Undertaker. We all have watched Undertaker tossing Foley from the top of Hell In A Cell. It is one of the most iconic moments to ever happen in WWE. Earlier this year, Undertaker was inducted into the WWE Hall Of Fame and thanked a lot of people but did not name Foley.
Foley recently appeared on the In The Kliq podcast where he discussed a number of topics – one being his omission from Taker’s speech:
“Well, listen, I forgot to mention my wife during my speech, so I’m not one to lecture anybody about who they should and should not include in their speech. I was not there for those formative years. His was more about friendship and support. We had a great rivalry, but he didn’t mention Rock or Austin. So, if I’m not hurt, no one can be hurt on behalf of me.”

Foley as usual, holds no ill will to The Deadman. Foley makes a good point that Taker did not mention two of the greatest of all time. Foley would go on to also discuss Vader’s induction into the Hall Of Fame:
“It meant a lot to me because I knew how much it meant to him when he was alive. He’s got a son who idolized his dad. I always thought he was the most glaring omission and now he is his rightful place.”
