Mick Foley Praises WWE NXT Champion Kevin Owens in Facebook Post

The list of WWE Superstars and Legends who have praised Kevin Owens is rapidly expanding, and now we can add Mick Foley aka Mankind aka Dude Love aka Cactus Jack to the list after he posted about the current NXT champion on his Facebook page.

Check out what Foley had to say:

"FOLEY FEARS OWENS

No matter where I was during the course of my career, I always felt comfortable in knowing that my character was unique and that my matches were going to be different than anyone else's on the card. I really think that if Kevin Owens had been around while I was in my peak that he would have forced me to become a better wrestler - to increase my limited offensive arsenal, and to step up the cardio to keep up with his faster pace. I appreciate that so many people miss me on their TV sets each week, but I'm not really gone. Kevin Owens is a faster, stronger, more aggressive version of me who you can see each week on WWE Raw and WWE SmackDown.

So does Foley fear Owens? In a way. I'm afraid that when wrestling's history book is written and the topic of top wrestlers with unorthodox body types is discussed, that my name will no longer be first on the list!

How do you think a match between Cactus Jack in his early 90's prime or late 90's Mankind would have turned out?"

Hulk Hogan recently had some glowing remarks about Owens, specifically about how Owens makes each match feel real and allows you to suspend your disbelief about the predetermined match.

What do you make of Foley's remarks? And would he have beaten Owens in his prime? Let us know in the comments section.
