When we moved Kane from the Futures to the Core List when he turned 46 (our mandatory age to be removed from the Futures), he was still an active wrestler.  Now, he is over 50, still looks great, and can still wrestle.  Oh, he is also the mayor of Knox County in Tennessee.

The WWE may be the elite in every capacity, but when they put a jockstrap on the head of poor Peter Polaco they showed that their wardrobe team can certainly swing and miss.  Polaco would have a lower card spot as Aldo Montoya, but it was in ECW where he had a gimmick that matched his skills. 

Placed in a mask in WCW and vastly misused in the WWF, the career of Jerry Lynn was thankfully salvaged by the period in between at ECW.  Lynn was a high flying hardcore superstar there, and became a natural fit in Paul Heyman’s promotion.  Still wrestling today with the same aggressive style despite being near 50, Jerry Lynn should be in someone’s Hall of Fame; too bad it likely won’t be in the WWE’s version.

We first saw D-Lo Brown in the WWE as an unnamed member of the Nation of Domination. Before long, D-Lo would appear as the workhorse of the faction and break out on his own with a series of decent singles runs. The big push that was expected for Brown never came and he was stuck in the mid-card, but D-Lo proved to be an effective hand for the WWE for years. There a few who have been inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame for less.
