They are good representatives of the company and that is who I have taken from,&#8221; Owens said.<\/p>\n<p>Owens also threw down a match challenge to Raw GM Mick Foley if he&#8217;s able to wrestle again.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;A lot of people compare me to Mick Foley in a lot of ways. We have similar body types and when I was on the independent scene I would do a lot of crazy stuff that people would relate to Mick Foley\u2019s career because of a lot of the crazy stuff he has done. I always took that as a compliment and now I get to share with him basically, Raw, and I think that is going to make for some very interesting television,&#8221; Owens said.<\/p><div id=\"pwtor-3745744682\" class=\"pwtor-content pwtor-entity-placement\"><div align=\"center\" data-freestar-ad=\"__336x280 __336x280\" id=\"pwtorchcom_test_300x250\">\r\n  <script data-cfasync=\"false\" type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n    freestar.config.enabled_slots.push({ placementName: \"pwtorchcom_test_300x250\", slotId: \"pwtorchcom_test_300x250\" });\r\n  <\/script>\r\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p>&#8220;I don\u2019t know if I am going to able to take much from him in terms of advice or anything like that but I am looking forward to our verbal jousts as unfortunately we will never be able to get in the ring together because I don\u2019t think he\u2019d be able to walk out.
