Former WWE RAW authority figures Mick Foley and Stephanie McMahon spoke candidly about their experiences working together. Just before the 2016 WWE Draft, Foley and McMahon were chosen as general manager and commissioner of RAW, respectively.
Although they got along well in real life, their attempts to coexist as the red brand’s top decision-makers on screen frequently resulted in conflict. During his FOLEY is POD podcast, the WWE Hall of Famer remembered how McMahon frequently assisted him when he forgot his lines.
“She expected a lot from herself. Her father [former WWE Chairman Vince McMahon] expected a lot from her, and she delivered. You never see her mess up a promo. She was there to rescue me when I couldn’t remember what I was doing.”
