"You think I haven't had some conversations with William Regal about, 'If you should feel spry. You know...'

"I say the ball is in his court, not as like a challenge or anything like that. It's just, he's the boss here. If he tells me it's time, done. If he says, 'Eh, I'm better off spectating.' Done. Whatever he wants, he's correct. That's the way I see it," Barnett said in an appearance on Ringsiders Wrestling.

Regal has attended a number of Bloodsport events over the years.

His son Charlie Dempsey has also competed at multiple events. He is scheduled to return to Bloodsport during WrestleMania 41 weekend in a bout against Shinya Aoki.
