However, to have a lengthy wrestling career, constant physical maintenance is a must.
Believe it or not, 70-year-old Bob Backlund is still fit enough to wrestle another match or two.
On the latest episode of Sportskeeda’s The Rosser Rewind with host Korey Gunz, Fred Rosser AKA Darren Young spoke about the significance of pro wrestlers staying healthy and revealed that Bob Backlund can still go at the age of 70.
He revealed that whenever Backlund is asked about his retirement life, he shoots it down and says that he has never retired. Rosser added that Backlund is a legit badass who can still work a match.
Backlund managed Darren Young during the Superstar’s final days in the WWE and the two unsurprisngly share a close bond.
The WWE Hall of Famer and 4-time WWE Champion last wrestled in Dradition Pro Wrestling in Japan in 2018 and he worked tag team matches at the two-day event.
