Mick Foley & Fan Involved In Argument Regarding Announcers

Sep 13, 2015

Mick Foley took to Facebook to talk about an incident involving a fan at one of his recent Q&As. The argument was over whether Jim Ross was the best wrestling announcer of all time. You can see the content of the Facebook post below:

NAME YOUR TOP 5 ANNOUNCERS OF ALL-TIME

Last night, the Q&A session at the #FiftyYearsOfFoley show threatened to get ugly, when a lad, with the help of a few too many pints took great exception to my oft-stated stance that #WWEHOF announcer Jim Ross is the best wrestling announcer of all time. The lad was a little tough to understand…sometimes a few extra pints will do that to a guy. But in the end with great concentration I grasped the point he seemed to be so desperately trying to make: my belief that JR is the greatest Wrestling commentator of all time was downright offensive to him and his earnest belief that the duo of Bobby “The Brain” Heenan and Gorilla Monsoon were the greatest announcers of all time.

I broke the tense standoff the only way I knew how. “Dude”, I said. “These are OPINIONS. They’re not facts. You are entitled to your opinion – and I’m entitled to mine, right?”

Thankfully, the guy calmed down, apologized for creating a disturbance. I shook his hand and headed back to the stage. I heard him call out to me.

“Mick?”

“Yeah?”

“Do you think Eric Bischoff was underrated as an announcer?”

I had him thrown out of the building immediately.
