Retirement from most professions is definite. Someone works for a large portion of their life, hiding money away and then when they are too old to handle it anymore, walk away for good. Theres a party, a nice present (stereotypically a gold watch) and time to do whatever you please. This concept is certainly lost on the wrestling business. So many performers say they will call it quits and for one reason or another (miss the crowds, the work, need money, etc) come back again and again. Some just fade away, going from the big leagues to indy promotions across the U.S. or go to a different country completely. While I respect and (mostly) care about the people on this list, I think it is just time for them to step away for one reason or another. For some, they still have time on the meter and can afford to wait until theyre done. Some should just ride off into the sunset as soon as this sentence ends. (Waits) They gone yet? There are reasons for each member of this list to stay, but I dont think they will fulfill those reasons. Most will just continue to do what it is they have been doing for years and fill up spots that a new generation can be filling. You may say But no one can do what (so and so) does. Thats my point. Find new things for younger talent to do so they have a bigger spot. An honorable mention goes to Chris Jericho because he is a prominent member of the Many Happy Returns Club, but despite his on-again-off-again relationship with the business, he is doing it right by helping get this generation over. I am a fan of Fozzy and I enjoyed both of his books, so the man is talented in areas of entertainment that arent wrestling. Hes a bright dude with a great sense of humor and can write as if youre just having a conversation, personally, with him.
