The Man, The Myth, The Legend Vol. 4: Nikolai Volkoff

10. Last match at almost 70.

Volkoff took rare bookings even late into his life, such as in 2016 when he appeared at the Night of Legends event for Billtown Wrestling.

Despite being 68 years of age at the time, Volkoff still took bumps and powered his way through his opponents. While he had slowed considerably from his youth, he still is one of the rare wrestlers who competed over five decades, a feat that few can claim.

Volkoff passed away in 2018, but he leaves behind a wrestling legacy spanning fifty years that encompasses much of the cultural changes the world underwent. While he never won a singles world title, he is still remembered as one of the all time greats.

Nikolai Volkoff was truly a legend.
