– Former WWE Champion JBL recently spoke with Sportskeeda while in Mumbai, India to work with a charity that helps underprivileged children, check out the highlights below:
On his current WWE status:
“I’m still part of the WWE family which I’m thrilled about. I’ve been there for twenty-one years. I’ll still be going back for WrestleMania and Tribute to the Troops.
“I had no chance to come to places like India and visit Magic Bus, and do some things that I really wanted to do, as long as I was doing commentary every week. So, I got a chance to back off and do a few big events every year which I love doing. Love seeing Ron Simmons from the APA. He comes to all the big events too. But I love being able to come out here and visit with the kids and learning what people are doing, which to me is the most important work in the world.”
“He’s like my hand’s too big to fit in the hole. And it was. His hand was too big to fit in the golf hole.”
On the backstage atmosphere backstage at WrestleMania 33 for The Undertaker’s last match:
“I don’t know if it was his last match. I met with him beforehand. He was the groomsman at my wedding. We are good friends. I wrestled him probably more than anybody else in my career. Probably more than anybody else in his career, as well. So, I know him very well.
“Such a great character. I don’t know if it was his last match, and if it was, it was an amazing way to go out.”
