Kevin Nash was pretty spot on:
This is not to say that Kevin Nash is not a fan of Mick Foley, but he seems to blame Foley for a huge part of the wrestling industry being destroyed after Foley did his infamous fall off the Hell in a Cell cage.
"Nash was a guest on Eric Bischoff's “83 Weeks” podcast and spoke about Hulk Hogan being the greatest worker to ever wrestle. When Nash admitted that his answer would come as a shock to a lot of people, he explained that one of the things Hogan was so good at was wrestling 300 nights per year and never injuring anyone. Nash knew that you could wrestle Hogan over and over and, " I knew for a matter of fact, a million percent, I would bet everything I own, that I’m going to come back to the locker room in the exact same shape that I left it."
That element of safety in wrestling went away in 1998 when Foley dove off the cage at Hell in a Cell. Nash explained, "I’ll say it to the day I die, one of the biggest parts of our business that died happened at Hell in the Cell when Mick Foley fell, whatever he fell, 40 feet through that table, because now we took work, and made it a stunt.""
Everything is a stunt now. Even worse, guys do stunts just for the sake of doing stunts...and then nobody sells the stunt that the "performers" just did.
