Mick Foley believes his fellow WWE Hall of Famer Paul 'Triple H' Levesque was better in the ring than people realise.

The Hardcore Legend was recently a guest on D-Von Dudley's YouTube channel and praised the current WWE Chief Content Officer's ability as a ring general, saying:

"You just know you're in the ring with greatness. This has nothing to do with move sets. You know you're in the ring with a ring general. You know you're in the ring with a guy who's making you the best you can be. So there have been, over the years, people who have said, 'He wasn't as good as people thought'. It's like, no, I actually think he's better than you realise. He was that good. Whenever you can watch a match, you go, 'Wow, there's just something about a Triple H match'.

"It didn't matter who he was with; it was gonna have shades of a Triple H match. I hoped that I could take my brawling style and make it work with anyone. I was so glad that I caught him at the tail end of my full-time career, when he was trying to push through and become that single guy he knew he could be, and he was simultaneously helping me with the best landing I could have ever asked for".

Foley signed a new WWE Legends deal last year.

In April, the 60-year-old was lucky to walk away from a serious car accident having suffered only a mild concussion.
