In an interview with the Like Father Like Son podcast, Kane spoke about whether or not he’s considering retirement at the age of 49. Here are highlights:
On if he’s thinking about retirement: “Not really. It’s still fun. I have a lot of fun now with the younger guys and just being in the position that I’m in, as more of a mentor at times. I’ve also been very fortunate that I haven’t had many injuries, so my body still feels good. I can’t say it feels as good as it did when I was 25, but it still feels good and I can still do most of the things that I used to be able to do. And I still think that I perform at a high level, even when I’m in there literally against guys that are half my age sometimes. I think they still have to keep up with me.”
On Brock Lesnar fighting at UFC 200: “I think that’s good for both brands, frankly. Brock Lesnar is one of those guys, like The Rock has done in movies… Brock has done the same thing in UFC and MMA. He has transcended WWE and that sport, and I think he helps bring UFC and MMA fans into WWE, and vice versa. So anytime someone has crossover appeal like that, I think it’s good for everybody.”
