My Take
Billy Gunn, born Monty Sopp in Orlando in 1963, is a 191cm slab of a man with a powerlifting and Sam Houston State background, and a 2019 WWE Hall of Fame induction to show for decades in the ring. What I admire is that he didn't coast on his early stardom: today he wrestles in AEW as Daddy Ass, coaches younger talent, and still occasionally steps between the ropes himself. Remaining genuinely useful in a brutal, youth-obsessed business well into your later years isn't luck. People who last this long in wrestling almost always have a real reason, and Gunn clearly does.
