Vince McMahon didn’t want Mick Foley in the WWE
Mick Foley, in an interview with Inside The Ropes, spoke about his time in WWE and how Vince McMahon wasn’t keen on making him a star.
Mick Foley later went on to talk about how the Mankind mask was a prototype for The Undertaker who had fractured his orbital bone. The Undertaker, instead of taking time off, wanted to wrestle with the injury and the mask was made to keep him safe. But when Vince McMahon ordered for Mick Foley’s face to be covered, the creative team wanted to do it in style, giving birth to the Mankind mask.
Mick Foley also addressed that he would not have gotten his break had it not been for The Undertaker. Besides the fact that The Undertaker’s orbital bone fracture gave Foley another chance, The Deadman was the one who threw Mankind from the top of the cell in their Hell In A Cell match. It was during that match that the WWE Universe realised how resilient and tough Mick Foley is.
