Would Mick Foley work for a WWE without Vince McMahon

Mick Foley stated that he would likely turn down a potential return if WWE came calling in 2022. Foley noted that he wouldn't work in the post-Vince McMahon version of the WWE. He cited short-term memory loss as the reason, he also noted that he can't even remember a written promo: "I can't remember a written promo. That's one of the reasons why if I do get a call for TV, I'm more likely to say no. In 2012, the year we are covering, I made a difference. I thought honestly, I was one of the few returning guys who could make a difference or who wanted to make a difference because that was my primary goal. If you're gonna bring me back, I want to help out with the storyline. I don't want to just get the pop," Foley added. He also mentioned that, if he was to return, he would want to do something notable, as opposed to just helping out here and there. What did you think of Mick Foley's comments?
