Anderson appeared as a guest on Busted Open Radio on Friday and was asked about the possibility of managing Rhodes again. He responded by saying that whatever he does in the industry moving-forward will be in an effort to help his son, Brock Anderson, get established in the business.

“Well, in case you don’t know, I am 65 and my liver is 127,” Anderson said. “I am on short-time and I don’t have a lot of time probably on the planet, much less in the business. But I am dedicating whatever time I have left in one way or the other to helping my son Brock, who is breaking in, get a spot in the business with some company and get established and help him get to a position where he can make a living, can contribute and be a viable asset to whatever company uses him. That’s what I want to dedicate whatever time I have left for.”

He continued to say he’s not sure if he would come back for a short-term reunion with Rhodes.

“Would I come back in the right situation for a short-term something with Cody? If anybody out there thinks it’s a good idea let me know, I don’t know. That would be something because he and I have never had that conversation,” Anderson continued.

Anderson said he recently had contact with Rhodes when he texted him to check in on the health of Brandi Rhodes, who had surgery for stage four endometriosis last month, and the topic of reuniting their act never came up.

“After (Rhodes’ comments about wanting a manager) blew up just a couple of weeks ago or whatever it was coming off you guys’ show, I mean, that blew up and it was like, ‘Okay, he’s coming back.’ And I sent him a text, his wife has been ill, asked how she was, asked how he was, ‘Everything going okay?’ And we had a couple of texts back-and-forth and it never came up. So, I went maybe that was just him testing the waters himself when he threw that out there, I’m not sure. I was honored, flattered of the things he said, but it’s all true and that’s the way I handled Cody, you know, ‘Hey, you’re the star of the show, go out there and act like one.'”
