Cassidy explained Foley's impact on the promotion during an interview with "TMZ Sports":

He was incredible. He watched as much of the show as he possibly could, and then he would give some incredible feedback to some of the people that were wrestling and stuff. He is incredibly talented, and he has so much knowledge that he's just one of those other guys that I can't wait to like pick his brain and stuff.

The conversation also addressed the frequently asked question of whether Foley will step into the ring again. While Cassidy did not give a definitive answer regarding Foley wrestling again, he offered a general observation about professional wrestlers:

I don't know. I didn't really talk to him too much. But for what I know about professional wrestling and professional wrestlers, the itch never goes away.

Following his AEW debut, Foley himself addressed the possibility of an in-ring return, stating that it could happen if he can keep his head safe from further trauma. Reports have suggested that the WWE Hall of Famer could have one final match, with AEW CEO Tony Khan reportedly interested in booking Foley for a bout, provided Foley is cleared by AEW's doctors.

Foley's current role in AEW is multifaceted, including hosting shows with Renee Paquette, potentially taking on an on-screen managerial role, and helping to promote the company.
