10 Wrestlers Who Still Kicked Ass In Their 50s

1. Terry Funk

Terry Funk is only ever semi-retired, Terry Funk still wrestles quite often, and Terry Funk is 76 years old!

The utterly wild and insane former Chainsaw Charlie is a legend of the business, not only because of his five-decade-long career, but also his influence in pioneering the hardcore wrestling style. Funk was taking flaming barbed wire bats to the face well after he was eligible for a pension, which is mind-blowing.

It's hard to pin-point the best periods of this mans career, as he's simply had so many, though his time in ECW was one of the most important. His influential hand in that promotion would help it be taken seriously and go on to revolutionise the business. He turned 50 while with the promotion, and there are very few people who can say they celebrated that milestone by jumping through a table.

The man is beloved by fans and his peers, even being granted a personal Lifetime ECW World Heavyweight Championship belt for his accomplishments. The fact that he can still walk after all he's put his body through is shocking, but somehow he has managed to kick butt right into his late seventies.
