Renee Paquette 0:34
Yeah, thank you guys so much for having me on. Excited to see you guys. Excited to talk Double or Nothing. Very cool.
Rick Ucchino 0:41
Yes, very intriguing card for the show tonight. But I think we have to start with your broadcast colleague for the night. Tony Khan, you know, known to have a few surprises up his sleeve come pay-per-view time. He unveiled this one a few days in advance, the hardcore legend Mick Foley, now in the fold in All Elite Wrestling.

How does Renee Paquette feel about working with Mick Foley?

Rick Ucchino 1:01
What was your reaction when you first heard the news that you were going to be pairing up with Mick for the night and moving forward?
Renee Paquette 1:07
I mean, it was so exciting. I had no idea that that was going to be happening. Of course, I've known Mick for such a long time. So to be able to work with him in this capacity... I'm just I'm excited. I mean, anytime you get to have someone of that legendary status, come on, shed some light. I mean, Mick is such a fan of professional wrestling. So to have him be a part of AEW now, it just feels like such a perfect mix. I feel like he's somebody that just fits in with the entire vibe and essence that is all elite wrestling. So I'm really excited. I just I also just haven't seen Mick yet. in a long time. I get really beautiful Christmas cards every single year from Mick. Yes. Nora does not know the magic that is Mick Foley yet, but he has been sprinkling magic in her life since she was born.
Renee Paquette 1:58
So yeah, I'm really excited to have Mick on the panel. I'm excited. I'm also just like pumped for our talent to be able to pick his brain, to have someone like him around, I think is going to be so valuable to so many people.
Unknown 2:13
Yeah, Renee, kind of to that point, like talk about what this means in a bigger picture for AEW, because Mick is still incredibly popular. He's known by several generations of fans with such credibility. He's super nice to interact with. Like this is a this is a as you would say in the recipe, this is a big rub for the company to have him associate. Talk about this.
Renee Paquette 2:32
It's huge to have him be a part of AEW and like, you know, he's the hardcore legend. That makes perfect sense for him to be here in AEW. Whether, you know, whether it's somebody like Darby Allin getting to pick his brain or, you know, you can run down like the list of our talent of guys that are going to be able to like lend a... an ear, no pun intended, but to be able to talk to Mick and just to get some of that knowledge on, you know, psychology of certain things to how certain matches work to maybe how to push the envelope a certain way. And, you know, I think for Mick too, I think there's something really cool for him to now get to be a part of our world and And you can't help but it's just so contagious to be around these people.

What impact does Mick Foley's involvement have on AEW?

Renee Paquette 3:19
And we're doing something so cool right now. And I just I feel like there's just a really great energy. And I think that that's something that's going to go both ways. I think Mick is going to benefit from it. I think we're going to benefit from it. Yeah, I'm really excited to see how that's going to go moving forward. And I really hope. that a lot of people use him to the most of his ability. I think, you know, for people to be able to have those conversations and get to talk to him and Mick is so generous with his time and with his knowledge and his information. So I think for people to be able to really tap into that and use that from him, I think will be, you know, really great for everyone.
Rick Ucchino 3:59
obviously his health is going to be and should be top priority, but Tony Khan kind of raised some eyebrows on Thursday when he said he'd be open to Mick wrestling, if that is something that he wanted to do.
