Has there been any wrestler that hasnt wrestled a single match in years, longer than stone cold?

Austin seemed to have bad luck with injuries.

I'm sure he felt like he even a few routine bumps gone wrong and he could possibly ruin his neck

The biggest the window was open for his return was during CM Punk's main event run. That was when Austin was entertaining the idea of returning openly the most. Esp after that WWE 2k interview they did got a lot of buzz. But once that time came and went, Austin basically shut the window down for good. He wasn't even moved when he did his WWE Network interview with Heyman and he jokingly teased a match with Brock and ESPN took it and ran with it lol.

Ted DiBiase retired in 93. Been around with the company this entire time but hasn't had a match ever since. although he did have to retire because of a neck injury

Pretty much just like Austin.

Technically, he won and lost the 24/7 championship last year I think on the raw reunion. That's a kayfabe sanctioned match.

Not including dead people or like Droz

Gerald Brisco I think

Won the 24/7 title on raw reunion last year

I remember Austin getting in the ring on tough enough and he had a nice couple minute sequence. He absolutely could have done a match against someone of Punk caliber at that time

Won it and lost it without lifting up a finger
Gotta exempt that

Head and neck injuries ain't no joke, I do wonder who stayed at the longest on their own terms.

Maybe Bruno? Did he just retire due to age instead of injury?

nikka that don’t count

I don't think CM Punk is ever going to wrestle again, so maybe him? It's been close to seven years now. I don't see Christian coming back either. He retired due to concussions, but he could probably get cleared if he really wanted to.

Edit - Just saw Christian was in an "unsanctioned" match this year. I wasn't watching that shyt, so nevermind

The OG Blitzkrieg retired in 1999 aged 24 and hasn’t wrestled since
