– WWE Hall of Famer and RAW GM Mick Foley recently talked about Sasha Banks and Becky Lynch as well as the WWE Draft in a recent Facebook post. Foley, who has been very vocal about women’s wrestling in the past, gave high praise to both Banks and Lynch. Here is what he posted:
THIS MAGIC MOMENT
This backstage promo for the ‪#‎WWE‬ Facebook page might not have seemed like a big deal, but to the three of us -me, Sasha Banks and Becky Lynch, it was very special; two of the best wrestlers on the planet, and one of their most vocal supporters (I really did drive 12 hours to watch their May 2015 ‪#‎Takeover‬ match) on camera together for the first time.
I am thrilled to be working with the ‪#‎LegitBoss‬ every Monday on ‪#‎RAW‬, and know that Becky will be a big success on ‪#‎SmackDownLive‬. I thought the #WWE draft was a big night for ‪#‎WomensWrestling‬ – with Charlotte drafted 3rd overall, and Sasha and Becky both going within the first 15. It was important to both me and Stephanie McMahon that we draft a woman in the first round as a statement. In retrospect, I wish I’d pushed harder for Sasha and Becky to go in the top ten – but I think the sky is the limit for these two.
– As noted, WWE and Mattel has introduced a new Shockmaster action figure included in Mattel’s Elite Flashback Series. WWE recently caught up with The Shockmaster at the San Diego Comic Con and asked him about the new action figure:
