Newly crowned WWE Champion Alberto Del Rio has finally reached the top of the mountain in the world of professional wrestling – but it appears that Mexican superstar already has his plans for retirement in place.
During a recent interview with Mexican news agency Notime, Del Rio says he plans to retire in five years time – following a farewell tour that would finish in his home town of San Luis Potosi, Mexico. Del Rio said (translated):
“I already decided. I want to retire in five years and will make a farewell tour but not as many who do 250 fights. Seek a dignified farewell to a fight in San Luis Potosi, my native land and in the Arena Mexico, my home.”
“I decided to go full power and thus having managed to be the best Mexican fighter in this difficult race. I’m tired because it takes great dedication and sacrifice but also left me enormous satisfaction.”
Del Rio also talked about the significance of leaving a legacy in this business and representing his family with honor:
“To where I have arrived I have taken fully the name of my dynasty and know that my family is proud than I have done, so when the moment arrives for hanging the boots I will continue enjoying the place that I deserved myself.”
