CBum and Eddie Hall bumped into each other during the Arnold Sports Festival earlier this year. The Strongman shared a snippet from their interaction, where he could be seen saying, “You should retire soon because I’m coming into Classic,” to CBum. 

He further went on to add, “I’m gonna retire you.
