Foley talks about Wyatt vs Shield, and an idea Vince shot down

[Crayo]

- Mick Foley recently appeared on MLW Radio as a special co-host with former WWE writer Court Bauer. Foley talked about The Wyatt Family:

“I love the [Wyatt Family] videos. I really do. I think they’re going to be an instant hit. I’m already looking down the road at a Shield vs. Wyatt Family WrestleMania match. A meeting of the maniacs.”

Foley also revealed his original plan for his WWE Hall of Fame induction, which was shot down by Vince McMahon:
“I pointed out to Vince that I’d never had any pyrotechnics during the entirety of my career. I thought it might be special if at the end of my speech at the Hall of Fame I could somehow ascend into the rafters on a slay with Santa Claus. Vince looked at me like I was just out of my mind and let me know in no uncertain terms that was not going to happen.”

Shield vs Wyatt fam? how would they even go about that? I guess at Mania the smark crowd would naturally cheer on Shield anyhow, so the heel/heel dynamic might work for that one night, but what about the build?

I can't picture this as a realistic option at all.

I guess that by next mania they could have set it up so Shield had taken on a more tweener/face role to make the dynamic work. The "what happens when a monster meets an even bigger monster" scenario.

In the Attitude Era, where heels and heels sometimes went up against each other (the 'gang warz' between the DOA and Los Boricuas, or the Corporation against the Ministry), I could see this working, but it seems unlikely today. Even then, these two groups don't seem like they'd mesh well character-wise.

Shield vs The Wyatt family is a bad idea IMO because it wouldn't be enough time for the Wyatt's to pick up enough steam. I think if The Shield stays together long enough it might happen, but I really don't see it happening. Then again I didn't see last monday happening, so if WWE is catering to the IWC...perhaps
