Mick Foley Discourages WWE Superstar Over Dangerous Move

If there is one person to listen to about something being dangerous or not, it’s Mick Foley. Whether it’s as Mankind, Cactus Jack, or Dude Love, the WWE legend is known for putting his body on the line and sacrificing everything in, and out of the ring.

After seeing what happened on the latest episode of RAW, where Sasha Banks took on Asuka, Mick Foley took to twitter to discourage The Boss from using a move that didn’t quite go to plan during the match.

Earlier in the evening, Asuka was set to choose her WrestleMania opponent, however Sasha Banks interrupted and claimed that she was ready to face the first winner of the women’s Royal Rumble. Being undefeated in WWE, The Empress of Tomorrow gladly accepted the challenge which was to feature later in the night.

During the showdown, which could only have one winner, Banks appeared to try everything in the book to defeat Asuka, including a suicide dive that didn’t go to plan. The dive itself can be seen at 1:33 in the clip below.

It appeared as though Banks didn’t get the momentum required to launch herself to the outside of the ring, with her legs being caught by the middle rope, forcing her head to take a sharp and sudden diversion directly to the apron before she fell to the floor. It was clear at the time that this wasn’t planned, but thankfully there were no immediate injuries following the mistake.

Mick Foley tweeted in response to the move:

I really don’t want to see Sasha try that dive again. Too many close calls. Time to take that item off the menu.
