When you say that Bobby Lashley has been involved in pro wrestling since 2005, it's a little easier to believe that he's 45 years old. However, when you see that he doesn't look even a little bit different from the day he debuted, you'll be surprised to learn that he's actually one of the oldest members of the roster.

At 45 years of age, Lashley is older than Brock Lesnar (44), Randy Orton (42), and even John Cena (44), who debuted in WWE a whole three years before he did. He is also older than his former TNA contemporary AJ Styles (44), who has been wrestling for seven more years than he has.

Amazingly, instead of slowing down over time, Lashley's in-ring work has vastly improved over the last decade-and-a-half or so. It's refreshing to see that he's finally being booked like the freak athlete and legit combat sports veteran that he is.

Interestingly, it looks like WWE officials are grooming Lashley to be the top babyface on Monday Night RAW, which is a bold choice considering how effective his heel work has been. But then again, who are we to doubt the All Mighty?
