In the latest episode of “83 Weeks”, Bischoff was asked how he first learned about Mick Foley losing an ear during a match with Vader in Germany. Bischoff revealed that he was called shortly thereafter. Here’s what Bischoff had to say:
I got a phone call right after it happened and I can’t remember who called me, it would have been one of the agents that was on the road, but I remember him describing what happened and Mick having to pick up his ear and take it to the back and not knowing if he could have it re-attached or not. It was just, I shook my head. And again, I think it was one of those mishaps, I think it occurred when Mick was trying to go through the ropes and get himself hung up in the middle of ropes around his neck and something went wrong and ended up ripping his ear off. But again, it was just another one of those crazy Mick Foley stories. Primarily because Mick was just, his style of wrestling was so extreme at that point, and hardcore, and he was just putting himself through such crazy shit. But yeah, I got the phone call from overseas almost right after it happened.
