Additionally, Roberts said that he could have helped Jake Hager in the ring:
"I'd have liked to get with [Jake Hager]. I think I could have helped him a lot in the ring. I mean he's an animal, but if he'd just let me drive for a little while I think I could show him some shortcuts." (H/T Cultaholic)
