WWE Hall of Famer Mick Foley is known for enduring some of the most brutal moments in wrestling history, but his latest battle happened outside the ring. The “Hardcore Legend” revealed on social media that he was hospitalized following a car accident, suffering injuries from his knees to his back, as well as a concussion.
Never one to lose his sense of humor, Foley shared a photo of himself standing beside the wreckage on Facebook, reassuring fans while keeping his signature upbeat attitude.
“TOUGH DAY FOR MICK! I have no idea how I am still walking around after this accident. I’m in the hospital now, and I’m sore from my knees to my neck, including a minor concussion,” Foley wrote.
Foley, a three-time WWE Champion and one of the most beloved figures in wrestling history, has taken some insane punishment throughout his career—from being thrown off Hell in a Cell to countless hardcore brawls. While this latest incident wasn’t part of a scripted match, it’s clear that his resilience remains intact.
Fans have flooded social media with well wishes, hoping for a speedy recovery for the hardcore icon. No further details have been shared about the accident, but knowing Foley, he’ll be back with another update soon—possibly with a tale that makes even this real-life scare sound like just another chapter in his legendary career.
Get well soon, Mick!
UPDATE
Foley posted the following update on Facebook:
“It’s been a little over 24 hours since I climbed out of this car, and I’m feeling very fortunate and very grateful. I do feel like I’ve been run over by a truck, but the idea that someone would be in an accident like this and walk away with only soft tissue injury makes me feel like someone was looking out for me! Thank you to all of you who sent well wishes.
I’m back on the road tomorrow and will not miss a single date!”
