WWE Royal Rumble 2000 Roster: Where Are They Now?
10. Bob Backlund
Then: Bob Backlund looked as shocked as anyone to get the call from the WWF before the 2000 Royal Rumble when he made his entrance for the match. He'd last two minutes before being chucked over the top rope by Chris Jericho.
Now: 70-year old Bob is still going strong, and guys like Bruce Prichard and Jim Ross have remarked on their respective podcasts that he remains in terrific physical shape for his age. Rather unbelievably, Backlund last worked a handful of matches for Japanese outfit Dradition Pro Wrestling in 2018.
