WWE Hall of Famer Mick Foley has opted out of doing one final match, citing health concerns.
Despite contemplating one final death match, he had given himself until early 2025 to finalize his decision. Foley recently announced he wouldn’t do the match due to a concussion he suffered.
Foley took to YouTube today to share an update. He said,
“Hello everyone, this is Mick Foley with a concussion update. You might be able to tell by the tone of my voice, it’s good news. Yeah, yeah – really good news. Even going into this weekend when I resumed my work schedule, I was a little out of it. But over the next three days, wow, really felt the fog lifting. It’s kind of like coming to the surface after you’ve been swimming under water.
I last had one of these minor concussions six years ago after riding a rollercoaster that shook me from side-to-side. And now following this episode, I’ve decided that I am no longer going to be taking on the deadly duo of Father Time and Mother Nature, because they commenced to kicking my butt, and it’s not a rematch I’m looking to have.
So I’m really happy, in a weird way, that I had this little wake-up call. I really appreciate all the well-wishes people sent me, people concerned about me. I’m doing really good. Always appreciate your support.”
