Despite retiring at Wrestlemania 25, John Bradshaw Leyfield has remained on good terms with WWE, including a continuing blog at WWE.com
on his last Elimination Chamber match:
When I returned to wrestling after a hiatus due to a broken back-I found myself in an elimination chamber match. I see one of the guys land on the steel portion outside the ring-I realized there was ZERO give to the entire structure. I realized everything that happened was going to hurt.
on his plans today rather than wrestling:
Today will be spent with no steel cage like last year and no big opponents who want to beat me up. Today will be spent working out, eating at PJ Clarkes and hitting some golf balls at Randall’s Island. A lot safer than Big Show-whose new movie I hear is very good-and an Elimination Chamber.
