WWE Hall of Famer Mick Foley recently shared details of his impressive weight loss journey and hinted at the possibility of participating in the 2025 Royal Rumble.
In a video posted to his YouTube channel, Foley revealed that he weighed 360 pounds a year ago and set a goal to reach 280. Although he reached a peak weight of 377 pounds, Foley achieved his target, weighing in at 279.9 pounds during a live weigh-in.
Foley credited his transformation to healthier eating, consistent workouts, and the use of Wegovy, a weight-loss medication. He also highlighted DDP Yoga and swimming as essential parts of his fitness routine.
Mick Foley said:
“I’m not 21 anymore. I can’t jump into things like I did back then. But I feel good—really good.”
“I did it the old-fashioned way. It was really a three-step process: healthier eating, working out, and, I’ll admit, I cheated a bit,”
“A doctor suggested Wegovy after seeing me at over 370 pounds. I know some people see it as cheating, but I felt like it leveled the playing field. My strength was gone, my metabolism had tanked, and I was gaining weight every day. I couldn’t even handle walking up a slight incline without needing to rest. I thought, ‘I’m a heart attack waiting to happen.’”
The former WWE Champion recently revealed that he participated in Ohio Valley Wrestling’s (OVW) Nightmare Rumble and felt strong after his performance. However, when asked about entering WWE’s Royal Rumble, Foley gave a cryptic response.
“I wouldn’t say I’m not entering the Royal Rumble,” Foley initially said with a laugh. He then took a call from someone implied to be Triple H, and in a playful exchange, hinted at the possibility of making a Royal Rumble comeback.
During the call, Foley joked, “You saw me in the Nightmare Rumble? I’ve lost some weight, yeah. I’ve been working out. Royal Rumble? Let me call you right back.” The clip ended with Triple H’s iconic theme music playing, leaving fans to speculate whether Foley might make a surprise appearance.
While Mick Foley stopped short of confirming his participation, his improved health and training have sparked renewed speculation among fans about a potential Royal Rumble entry.
