We all know the type. Wrestlers who should have retired years ago and gone on to do other things.
This is very common among wrestlers from the 80's and 90's.
Look at Hogan and Flair as perfect examples. But they are not the only ones. Mick Foley should have retired years ago, so should Scott Hall. Even Jake the Snake Roberts still does indy shows. (I honestly believe that Bret Hart would still be an active wrestler if it wasn't for the concussions and stroke)
I don't see any of the current generation of wrestlers staying in the ring into their 50' and 60's. (Can you imagine Cena wrestling at that age?)
The question is, why?? What is the difference between the current generation and previous ones? These days, wrestlers go off and do other things, have other careers away from the ring.
