Hugo said that he will be returning to the Mohegan Sun in January, but this time, he will be "a fan sitting in the bleachers."

My training is going pretty well," Hugo said. "I am pretty happy with it. Right now, I am just trying to get back and hope to be 100% by March."

Known for his business acumen as well as his strongman performances, Hugo said that he has reached an agreement to take over a supplement store in Quebec in February. "I will be a full-time businessman," said Hugo, expanding the relationship he already has with this store.
