You are right: people are too critical of wrestlers' ages. Look at some of these wrestlers, like Bret Hart (peaked at 40), Ric Flair (peaked at 40), The Great Muta (peaking now at 39), DDP (peaked well into his 40s). I was too hasty when I said Warrior's advancing years are "terrible". I used to have an "over 30 = has-been" feeling (not in wrestling, but in general). But now, I think to myself, "If that is true, I'm twelve years from being past it". Of course, it isn't true.
