WWE rumors 2016: Mick Foley returning as manager to Becky Lynch?

Mick Foley hasn't been seen much in the World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) but, apparently, the former WWE "Hardcore Legend" has not closed the doors on a possible return.

But this is with the understanding that the WWE has a slot for the former WWE star who had previously been making appearances in the same fashion as other former stars have done.

Foley seems to, however, want a bigger part if given the chance. According to PWMania.com, Foley is looking to return as a manager and the star he has in mind is Becky Lynch.

Lynch is currently in a storyline involving WWE Divas champion Charlotte who is managed by her father Ric Flair. Now adding up the possibilities, a Foley vs. Flair mind game and twist could be a good idea. But the question now is whether the WWE would bite and consider it.

Fireworks between Flair and Foley had already started back in December as reported by Wrestlezone. At that time, Flair was criticizing Foley for his alleged unhappiness on where the WWE is today. That angle was more of an opinion than a direct hit, so Foley didn't really engage and believed that doing so made no sense at all.

For Foley, that could be true. But if one thinks about the WWE, it could account for a great storyline to perk up the current Charlotte vs. Lynch feud.

It may also put Foley on a spot wherein he can put up or shut up. Foley believes that there is something lacking so his inclusion could be beneficial. But then again, it may depend on how the creative team build it up.

Ironically, his son Dewey seems to be on his way to join the creative team. SEScoops was the first to bring that out in the open, although Dewey will not be working full time yet as he needs to prove he belongs there first.
