Just thought of this after watching Byte this, showing clips from Superstars of the 80's dvd.
Man Tully blanchard looks really bad.
I gots to say, for all the grief they get, Flair, Arn, Hogan, piper have held held up pretty well in their 50's compared to their 30's.
Honkey's holding up pretty well too.
Animal looks about the same (despite the gut).
Dude I saw Ricky the Dragon Steamboat a while go, and he looks like a totally different man.
Bret still looks the same from what I've seen but still you can tell he's getting old, and being retired has taken some of of the physique off him.
Shawn's holding pretty well, although I gots to say all the times he popped up during the attitude era, he looked the same. Yet when he finally returned (only about a 4 year absence) he really looked a lot older than he did when he pooped up on like excess or something. It's almost like once he found god, and got more mature emotionally and spirituall, it's like his body realized it too.

It's not fair to evaluate Bret. The man had a stroke.

He looks almost exactly the same. Can't believe he came back from a broken back from mostly Yoga. |

Time has treated Flair well?
Sure he's in some semblance of physical shape. But his face and hair are a totally different story. He wrinkled like you imagine a worse steroid abuser would have.

I dunno... compared to a lot of guys. Not too bad. He still looks pretty much like he did in the eighties, just a bit more wrinkles. It's not Brutus the Barber Beefcake levels. |

flair has saggy boobs, and I can't believe he doesn't get more crap for it than he does.

Its hard for most people in their 50's not to get saggy. Flair looks good for somone his age.

Hogan looked bad in 02 and Flair looked actually pretty good during 02 and 03
3 years later its the opposite.

More wrestlers should have restaurants I saw a Mean Gene's Burgers Truck a few weeks ago. I marked out. And all things considered I think Terry Funk has held up well. Dusty Rhodes looks like shit, but he was never exactly a paragon of physical fitness. |

Agreed on the Greg Valentine. Anyone seen Lex Luger lately?
Funny thing, it seems, that for the most part, those who were all bulk and no muscle seem to be looking better in their later years than those who were muscletastic. I wonder why that is?

Old Jake looks like David Crosby. Does anybody have that picture of Valentine and, I think, Beefcake sat on the couch?
