On pitching WWE the idea of undergoing medical evaluations after every match:

“This is my proposal: after every match, I have to go to the trainer’s room, they do all the checks and all that kind of stuff, and if I don’t do it, maybe there’s a fine or something like that. So you know, after every match, I get checked, which they’ve actually instituted. That’s what’s happening now, I get checked after every – like, not even thanking your opponents or anything like that. WrestleMania, I walked straight through gorilla, no thank yous to anybody, straight to the doctors, and then I get checked.”
On where he would have gone to wrestle had WWE not cleared him to return to the ring:
“I wanted to go to New Japan, Ring of Honor and CMLL. I’ve done a little bit in Mexico, but I always wanted to do – even though there’s no money there, like in comparison, I wanted to do like mask and hair matches and all that kind of stuff.
… so Bullet Club is very hot, but they need somebody to go against… something that would draw money and interest and bring independent wrestling to another level, I thought – that’s it. And then you [Jericho] came in and just did it [both laugh]… so that’s what I was thinking, a long-term thing. We could do that for a couple years.”
