KingofSports Posted February 12, 2021 Posted February 12, 2021 Some of whom are long-retired or barely active. So what's your point?
CTXRussomark Posted February 12, 2021 Posted February 12, 2021 I'm not sure the point you're trying to make really stands up. Of the names I've actually heard of most of them aren't still wrestling anymore.
The Cutting Edge Posted February 12, 2021 Posted February 12, 2021 One guy as mentioned died in 2013. Not sure on Japanese names, buy Dustin Rhodes is the only name I think wrestling in a big company regularly. Funk was kinda the first generation of sorts the be an old guy wrestling, most finished up in there 40s due to injuries and wear n tear.
WyattSheepMask Posted February 12, 2021 Posted February 12, 2021 So what you’ve basically done is found a list of wrestling related names who were born in 1969
BrodyGraham Posted February 12, 2021 Posted February 12, 2021 Yeah, I must have missed all those ladder and death matches that Mauro fucking Ranallo had in the last year......
The Cutting Edge Posted February 12, 2021 Posted February 12, 2021 Another look at the list, Droz has been paralyzed since 99, these names are so random
Michael_3165 Posted February 12, 2021 Posted February 12, 2021 Weirdly Funk looked about 90 in the 80s. He certainly didn't age well. I saw him years ago in the UK and he looked like a grandad that needed a mobility scooter. Bless him, he really did stick around too long. What a fantastic wrestler though. Don't make em like that anymore.. I'm wondering what point the OP was making but I appreciate the intention. Was it that he looked much older in 1997 than a alot of those guys do now?
Paid Members Carbomb Posted February 13, 2021 Paid Members Posted February 13, 2021 FUn FACT: We are now further away from Flair's first WWF title reign than it is from the building of the Pyramids
Paid Members TheBurningRed Posted February 13, 2021 Paid Members Posted February 13, 2021 The aging process. Wow. My mind is BLOWN
HeavyT Posted February 13, 2021 Posted February 13, 2021 A bunch of old duffers. Cool story bruh. The likes of batista doesnt really compare when he started late and is.done already
simonworden Posted February 13, 2021 Posted February 13, 2021 Love to see Dustin go a bit more funk with less death match though
