Dave Mustaine has since expressed that, although he believes that Risk is a great record, it "should not have had the name Megadeth on it, because if anybody else's name was on 'Risk,' it would have sold".
Dave Mustaine je od tada izjavio da, iako vjeruje da je Risk odličan album, Risk "nije trebao biti objavljen pod Megadethovim imenom jer da je bilo koje drugo ime bilo na 'Risku', bi se prodavao".
