Superstars who have been with WWE for decades have always considered two aspects of paramount importance - loyalty and longevity.
Loyalty to Vince McMahon's promotion is their motivation to continue working tirelessly. This leads to the longevity of their careers. Legends like Kane, Edge, and most famously, The Undertaker have been with the company for decades.
In a similar vein, a few talents on the current roster have been around for a long time, entertaining fans every day. In this article, we look at five such superstars who have been with WWE for more than a decade:
