• Thanks to Daniel Edler & Chris Yandek for sending in the following Mick Foley interview:
  
  
• Chris Yandek recently had the chance to interview Mick Foley in which he speaks on his return to WWE, his new book, how the book affects teenagers, his thoughts on HHH's political power and when he sat in on a WWE creative meeting, The Rock's future with WWE, Vince McMahon, the night he lost his ear, his barbed wire matches in Japan with Terry Funk, a brief discussion of Beyond the Mat, and so much more. Below is a paragraph from the interview:
  
  
• Do you think that the WWE Superstars today are taking too many chances resulting in neck surgeries and early retirements?
  "Not necessarily. I don't think that they are taking too many chances that if this doesn't work out this could be devastating, but a move like the German suplex is a move that throughout constant repetition is going to hurt some necks even more so then a pile driver that has a lot of risk, but if done properly is not all that damaging. I think that the German suplex is the most dangerous move in the business and should be cut back on."
