Hulk Hogan and Goldberg both won the WWE World Championship after the passed their 50s. There are other examples as well. Both Kane and Undertaker wrestled at their 50s and they did great.

The biggest example of it has to be Goldberg who is fifty five and still doing quite good. One of the most recent WWE Hall of Famers Kane also makes occasional appearances.

Every big name in professional wrestling has worked perfectly during their 40s and this time period of their career is considered to be their best time.
Big E who is also a former eight times WWE Tag Team Champion and also a former two times WWE Intercontinental Champion recently spoke to The Sun where he talked about the wrestlers who are at their 40s and doing really good. He said;
“We have so many guys now… Randy Orton, AJ Styles, Kofi Kingston, Bobby Roode, Dolph Ziggler – so many guys in their 40s performing at such a high level. They look great and are ageing well. So, I don’t know if I’m going to wrestle into my forties as I always told myself that I would make sure I was out before then, but my body feels great.
“In the ring, I feel leaner and my cardio is getting better. There’s so much about where I’m at physically that I’m really appreciating. So, if my body holds up, I’m feeling good and it makes sense, then we’ll keep going for a few more years.”
