“I’m really excited. People who have been following me know this is what I’ve been really hoping for, for a couple of years. It really seemed to come together in a really, first class manner.”

How the show will be in terms of content:

“This will be the PG version. Yeah, I’ll drop the one F-bomb and do it in grand fashion but it’s an all ages appropriate show.”

Foley making the show something unique:

“Now looking back, I’ve glad we waited just because (it has) the WWE’s top director, top producers, guys who I’ve worked with and am really comfortable with. We’re pretty sure we’re going to not only capture something special live but turn it into something really special for the Network.”
