WWE Hall of Famer Mick Foley has been in the news as of late. Foley recently stated that his contract was ending soon with WWE and would be working with them on a case by case basis. Foley caused a stir right after the Royal Rumble last Sunday when he criticized the WWE for not having Daniel Bryan in the Rumble match.

CM Punk left the WWE last Monday and a return is uncertain. Foley made a video providing his insight into the situation.

“First of all when people ask me like how do I feel about CM Punk leaving WWE?,” Foley stated. “On one hand it’s shocking, but on the other hand it doesn’t surprise me. I’ve known that he has been frustrated for quite sometime. I’ve talked to him at length on many occasions about trying to look at the glass half-full. But when you wear a shirt that says, “The Best in The World”, your not looking at the glass half-full. Your not stopping to smell the roses and think about the things that are going well. Punk is a really honest guy, he’s rubbed people the way since he began in the business. He’s got a lot of people who personally don’t like him.

Foley continues in the video on if he knew of Punk’s problems, if Punk should wrestle Triple H at WrestleMania, what he would say to Punk and more.
