Must be loads of luchadores. Pirata Morgan and Negro Navarro traded a Trios title about a week ago, for instance. |

Also slated to compete are The Rock 'N' Roll Express and Bill Dundee with appearances by Lance Russell, Dave Brown and Rocky Johnson. Come to think of it, both Ricky and Robert fit the bill of guys that started in the 1970s and are still active. Last edited on Tue Aug 25th, 2015 09:02 pm by martini |

Re: Kenny Jay. He was 79 this year, but for in ring activity, I think he finished up in 1999. |

Tito Santana still pops up at indy events, but I'm not sure if you'd count that as "active". Ditto for Greg Valentine and Bob Backlund. |

Domenic DeNucci still gets into the ring once or twice a year. He generally only works with Lord Zoltan, because he trusts Zoltan to protect him. |
