Mickie James Introduces Mrs. Socko in Wild Indie Moment With Mick Foley

Mickie James just pulled off one of the most unexpected throwbacks you’ll see — and it came with a little help from none other than Mick Foley.

Mickie James took to Instagram and shared footage from a Midwest All-Star Wrestling event, where she squared off against Sierra in front of a packed crowd. The match had its own chaos, but things really turned when Mick Foley got involved — not as a competitor, but as the referee.

At one point, Sierra got into an argument with Foley, completely taking her focus off the match. That distraction opened the door for Mickie to take control — and she did it in a way nobody expected. Instead of a standard move, Mickie pulled out a sock, clearly inspired by Foley’s iconic Mr. Socko, and used it mid-match before following up with her Mick Kick to seal the win.

After the match, the moment turned into something else entirely. Mickie and Foley celebrated together in the ring, leaning into the nostalgia and turning the whole thing into a feel-good scene for the crowd in attendance. Mickie even acknowledged it herself in her caption, giving credit to the unexpected assist.

“I’d just like to take a moment to thank my new friend Mrs. Socko for the assist! 🧦🙂 @realmickfoley
Incredible turnout last night 🔥 Thank ya’ll for SELLING OUT @mw_allstar ‘Hit The Jackpot’ @jackpotjunctioncasinohotel”

At the end of the day, this wasn’t just another indie match. It was a mix of nostalgia, creativity, and a crowd-pleasing finish that tied Mickie James and Mick Foley together in a moment fans won’t forget anytime soon.
