5 Pro wrestling superstars who retired before time

And that’s Edge about to drop the bomb on his fans

5) Stone Cold Steve Austin

No one has been able to replace Stone Cold in the WWE

Undoubtedly one of the toughest and equally cherished men from the classic Attitude Era. The Rattlesnake did everything that fans loved, for instance, drinking beer, beating the stuffing out of Vince McMahon and not caring about how his boss wanted him to act.

It was only after he broke his neck in a match against Owen Hart that he had to undergo neck surgery. But he rushed back to television soon after his surgery since the profits of the company depended solely on him.

He continued ascending the throne and broke many records record. It was only around mid-1999 when his neck started troubling him again and he went through another spinal fusion surgery.

He couldn’t continue wrestling much after his surgery, his last actual match being against The Rock at WrestleMania XIX, and soon walked out in 2002, unfortunately, breaking the hearts of his millions of fans from across the world. He was 38 at the time of his retirement.
