Which wrestlers are still active from when you started watching? For example, I started watching in 1990. From that: Dustin Rhodes The Rock and Roll Express (though they're on a retirement tour) George South Is Lawler still active? If we can count managers, Paul Heyman
EDIT: Adding Sting, Bill Dundee, Jimmy Valiant to the list. Is Demolition still active? I know they reunited several years ago.

I started a few years before, so Dustin, R'nR, South, Lawler, and I think that is it.

I started in 2001 and off the top of my head Edge, Christian, the Hardy’s, Chris Jericho.
Never watched a lick of WCW but I guess you could include Mysterio.

Chris Jericho Rey Mysterio Jr. The Hardys Rock N Roll Express Too Cold Scorpio Billy Gunn X-Pac Edge Christian AJ Styles Frankie Kazarian Christopher Daniels Bully Ray Dustin Rhodes Sting Chavo Guerrero Juventud Guerrera Psicosis Super Crazy Dr. Wagner Jr. Warlord Barbarian Meng/Haku Goldberg Jerry Lawler Scott Steiner Action Mike Jackson (duh) Buff Bagwell just sort of wrestled, but not exactly in any real condition to do more than eat a Superkick

Haha, the first live card I went to was local (my pop took me) and Mike Jackson main evented.
Mike is still active at 70-something and … a friend of mine who trained for a year and started up right before the pandemic is now traveling with him and tag-team partner with him! I haven’t been able to get out to see them yet but need to do so soon.

Sting rock n roll express Had Dustin started yet?
On air but not wrestling: Paul Heyman is still on air Vince is still on screen Are Arn, Jake and Tully still on AEW?

1990, so Sting, Dustin Rhodes, RnR Express, and I suppose you could kind of count Jimmy Hart, Paul Heyman, and Vince Mcmahon.
Arn Anderson and Tully Blanchard, sort of.

Oof. I have to start by thinking about who is still ALIVE from when I started watching. I doubt any of them are still active.

1995 so..... Billy Gunn Dustin Rhodes PCO Jeff Hardy Matt Hardy Same. Also, Sting. I'm sure there are a lot of guys who still do indy appearances, like Rikishi, Hardcore Holly and the like.

I started watching during the Hogan WWF era so if we're counting people who are a managers and people who are on air talent:
Sting, Dustin Rhodes, Paul Heyman, Vince McMahon, The Rock N Roll Express, Jake Roberts, Arn Anderson, William Regal (maybe?), Jim Ross and Tony Schiavone

The first card I remember was SummerSlam 89. Are Jannetty and Valentine still working? If so the only other one from that show is Tully Blanchard and that’s tenuous calling him active.

I would guess about 1986, so…
Lawler Rock n Roll Express
After that, it depends on if you count guys acting as managers now, and if people like Greg Valentine are still doing indie shots.
