Why would you tell them this? Let it drag out so they don't bury you on the way out at least.
It may have slipped out but either way, they may make him do horrible house show matches now. Best case scenario since he wants to leave is they don't let him in the ring at all. That is what I would hope for if I was him.
True, either way best thing to do now is take care of himself and get ready to harpoon some narwhals!He hasn't been in the ring for quite some time, probably because that 'minor' neck injury is still present.
