10 Wrestling Old Timers Who Could Still Go In WWE

Not over the hill yet...

Something which has been a constant worry throughout the past few years for WWE is the fact that they are pretty thin on the ground. Admittedly, things now aren't at the same desperate point they were during the mid-1990's - when Vince McMahon had less talent at his disposal than ever before - but there are still concerns. WWE currently have less genuine headliners than at any point over the past 15-20 years. This is exactly why the likes of The Rock and Triple H have been wheeled out once again for big matches on WrestleMania cards, and the likes of Brock Lesnar and The Undertaker can be added to that category. WWE simply don't trust that they have the star power without bringing back these part-time names. The names on this list aren't all included because they'd make a huge difference to ratings or ticket sales, this is simply an exploration of wrestlers from bygone eras who could still work wonders in WWE. The only criteria is that each entry must have been out of the company for around a year, but many of the performers featured haven't been seen in a long time under the employ of Vince McMahon. Some fans would love to see them, whilst others wouldn't, but the fact remains that these guys are in good enough physical shape that they could still work matches to a high level.
