“If he does, God bless him, and if he doesn’t, good luck. It’s his decision you know, he’s a competitor so I don’t know what he’s going to do. I think it’s a tough decision and I’m not in a position where I can ever make that call.

“I don’t know what I would do, probably sit down with my family and think about it. He’s had a hell of a career. There’s wrestling, he’s a high school coach, he does a lot man, we’ll see. I don’t know, whatever it is I support him.”
