Anybody ever think about wrestlers ages at certain points in their careers?

I always think about this cause it's always a topic based on pushes and such, and thought it was cool noting how old people were at certain points in there careers.

Rey Mysterio was 21 in 1996 getting lawn-darted by Kevin Nash :picard:

Bret Hart was 41 when Goldberg concussed him with that reckless kick in '99:merchant:

The Rock was 26 when he had a PPV named after his finisher in '98 :whew:

Hall and Nash were 36 and 37 when they made that jumped to WCW in '96 :myman:

Chris Benoit and Booker T were 31 and 33 when they were in the middle of their Best of 7 series in '98:win:and 39 and 41 when they did it again in 2006:obama:

Goldust was 26 when he made his WWF debut in '95:skip::skip:

Sting was 51 when he had to beat Jeff Hardy's drunk carcass for the TNA World title in 2010:martin:

Elix Skipper was 32 in 2000, Team Canada's finest:salute:
Hulk Hogan was 48 when he put back on the red & yellow to beat HHH for the title in 2002 :russ:

Roddy Piper and Ric Flair were 52 and 57 when they won the tag team titles in 2006:mjlol:

Commissioner Foley was 34 in 2000, coming off 2 straight ass-kickings from HHH at Royal Rumble and No Way Out....only 34:gucci:, which means he was 42-45 feuding with Sting, Jeff Jarrett, etc in his TNA days. Mick is a VERY old 54 today.:picard:

X-Pac was 23 when Razor Ramon put a diaper on him in '96:francis:

Jeff Jarrett was a prime 31 when he finessed that money from Vince and went to WCW in 1999:whew:
:whew::whew::whew:
Chyna was 27 in '96 when she hopped that crowd barrier and shook Terri Runnels like a rag doll:noah:

New Jack was 39 in 2002 when he launched Vic Grimes off that scaffold:damn:

Taz was 32 when he choked out Angle in his 2000 WWF debut. Just 32, and he'd retire just 2 years later:mjcry:

JBL was 37 when they decided to strap the rocket to him in 2004:manny:

Ron Simmons was 37 in his WWF debut in 1996, in that stupid gladiator gear :martin:, but the Nation of Domination later:blessed:

Randy Orton was 32 22 in 2002 when he was using the crossbody and Overdrive as his finishers :mjlol:

The Shield were 26, 26, and 25 (Reigns, Moxley, Rollins) making their main roster debut. Times flies:mjcry:

MVP was 32 making his WWE debut, BALLIN:wow:

Before he became THE PHENOMENAL ONE, AJ Styles was 32 22 in 2000 flying around in air craft carrier gear:lolbron:

Trish was 23 in 1999 when she introduced us to them oiled up shiny thangs :ooh:

Stone Cold was 32 when he dropped that ether on Jake Roberts in 96. 32 seems (or seemed) like a key age in wrestling:jbhmm:

I really don't but it's funny how when WWE was promoting "The New Generation" era they were trashing Hogan (41yo) and Macho (42yo) for being 'old' while in WCW when both those guys would now be considered 'young' by today's standards :heh:

Nash always looked younger than he was. Crazy how was in his mid-30's by the time he really got over.

Breh I was thinking about that last night. I had to look up if he was in the HOF (2013) or not. He’s not even legally a senior citizen yet & he looks like he lived 3 lifetimes :huhldup:
I just hope he’s taking care of himself now based on the trauma and carnage he put his body through for all those years :to:

If I got the math right ...

Triple H was 30 years old when he jobbed to 54-year-old Vince McMahon and lost the WWE Championship.
Triple H was 32 years old when he jobbed to 48-year-old Hulk Hogan and lost the WWE Championship.

:jbhmm: Seems like Triple H struggled against those wily veterans ...
