“Do You Need Some Validation?”: Former UFC Champion Destroys WWE Legend Mick Foley Over Twitter Exit Threat

The Tesla CEO, Elon Musk, On April 14, announced his bid for Twitter. Moreover, it is now official that the billionaire Musk bought Twitter for $44 billion. While many individuals have been gloomy about this, many others have been enthusiastic. However, on the other hand, former WWE legend Mick Foley wants to exit the Twitter platform.

Following Elon Musk’s takeover, WWE Hall of Famer Mick Foley tweeted, “He is considering leaving Twitter.” Since he doesn’t have good feelings about the future of the platform.

I’ll be giving some serious thought to leaving @Twitter for good in the near future.

I do not have a good feeling about where this platform is heading.

On the other hand, Former UFC champion Tim Sylvia believes Foley is seeking validation. He responded to Foley’s tweet by saying, “Do you need validation? If you want to leave, you can leave without telling anybody.”

You do know you can delete it without telling anyone. Why do you feel the need to announce your departure? Do you need some validation or something?

In contrast to Mick Foley, former WWE star Ryback believes Elon Musk’s takeover will make Twitter a better place.

Ryback’s Twitter account was restricted a long time ago. Former WWE Star, on the other hand, says he has never broken the platform’s rules and regulations.

.@TwitterSupport @paraga you say my account is restricted, yet you’ve never contacted me or locked me out of my account for not being “compliant” it has been 8 years and you’ve silenced my voice because of your corrupt partnership with WWE. @elonmusk I pic.twitter.com/IeYLbU2sQq
