Mick Foley on the outs with WWE?

Chris Graham

MICKsquaredMick Foley very publicly has been considering his future with WWE. In a blog post Thursday, the Mickster made clear his intentions.

“It looks like I will be sticking around for a while,” Foley wrote on his Facebook page, admitting that it was “foolish for me to even think about leaving WWE, especially knowing that whether I’m officially with them or not, they are always going to be part of me.”

Foley said his contract with WWE expires soon, “but we have mutually agreed to continue to work together on a case-by-case handshake deal.”

“The only minor difference (other than not getting a weekly check…ouch) is that I will work prospective WWE dates and projects around my schedule, instead of working my schedule around prospective dates,” Foley said.

Foley’s comedy career has been taking off. The WWE Hall of Famer did a show for Top Rope Pro Wrestling in Waynesboro, Va., in April 2013, and he’s done shows worldwide to rave reviews.

He said Thursday that WWE has show interest in partnering with him on live shows in the future.

“A WWE produced, first-class, multi-media one-man Mick Foley show has always been my long-term goal,” he wrote.
