He took to Instagram citing the challenges of recovering from a broken femur, claiming that it is not fully attached yet.

“Reflecting daily, growing daily is moving forward. My femur isn’t attached yet, but for now, challenge challenge challenge! I have to do it! That’s about it and that’s it. Second ring in 6 months. Moonsault hit the face. Still a lot of growth to recover! 44 years 22 years career. From kickboxing to pro wrestling 26 years of fighting life with no regrets! I’ll do it! I wonder if the bones are okay.”
