How I Think Current Wrestlers in the WWE Will Go Out!

In one of my previous articles I noted how I think many current superstars will go out of the business, and I'm here to give you a full list of people I think will be out of the company by 2012, due to retirement, not cuts or suspensions.

I'll start my list with Finlay. Finlay is 51 years old and lately his role has been getting smaller most likely due to his age.

Although I don't expect to see Finlay to continue wrestling in 2012, I expect him to be used as a manager and kept in talent evaluation for the company.

Mark Henry has left the WWE numerous times during his 13-year career, which in my opinion, was a mistake by the E to sign him for that long without him proving anything.

Henry has left numerous times to compete in weightlifting and sent back to OVW to work on his gimmick, since he can never seem to get over.

Without having a solid gimmick, I see Vince getting tired of having Henry waste space and not resigning him when it comes around to it.

Tommy Dreamer is known for his role in ECW, but we're talking about the one years ago, not the current one where he can't seem to find his place.

Working in the original ECW can never mean anything good for your body, as the matches you go through never seem to stop with the violence.

Dreamer hasn't really found a gimmick to go by in the new ECW except for being the last "Original" and I see him getting fired or retiring at this year's "One Night Stand" PPV, Extreme Rules.

Batista is an older wrestler who has had a number of injuries that has kept him out of big events including Wrestlemania 25. Without a huge time period of coming back from injuries, Batista has missed a huge amount of time since joining the WWE.

After suffering one more injury, I expect Batista to hang up the boots at an event where I think more wrestlers will retire, but I'll talk about that later.

The Big Show has been one of the most dominating big men in wrestling history but he can never seem to find a gimmick to stick with him, other than being a big man.

Show is getting older, his gimmicks are getting staler, and his body can only hold up so much longer.

I'm expecting them to give him one more big title victory before he retires and I think he'll announce his retirement sometime in 2010, after losing his title.

Mr. Kennedy was seen as a future main eventer by many people when he first debuted due to his outstanding mic ability, but injuries have derailed his career.

A serious latissiumus dorsi tear, an exposed cranium laceration, a torn right triceps muscle, and a dislocated shoulder have all affected Kennedy since he has joined the WWE in 2005.

Kennedy does more mic work than actual wrestling and I expect him to pull a JBL, and retire and join the announce team to replace Tazz.

The Great Khali is another wrestler who I feel has a stale gimmick and nothing to work with. He has gone from World Heavyweight Champion to kissing other men for a career; he must be loving life right now.

The WWE seems to only keep Khali in the company for the Indian fans, but he isn't needed and I feel like out of this list, he will be gone the quickest.

Rey Mysterio is one of the smallest men in the company and has had his title run but also has had hardcore matches and injuries to go along with them.

Mysterio is still one of the most exciting men on the roster but his proneness to injuries makes it hard for the WWE to push him, feeling that if they give him a shot, he could get injured and screw them over.

If Rey takes an injury to the knees and it takes away a step of speed, he will lose some of his pizzazz. Expect him to be the last guy gone, sometime in 2012. Maybe Wrestlemania?

17-0 at Wrestlemania, numerous title victories, and great matches that many people will never forget. The Undertaker is one of the most recognizable names on the WWE roster, but rumors about his retirement have been swirling around for a very long time.

Taker is 43 years old and although he hasn't been injured as much as the other wrestlers on this list, Taker isn't getting any younger and I feel like his retirement could come sooner than most people would expect.

Wrestlemania 26, John Cena vs. The Undertaker. I expect Taker to defeat Cena, jump to 18-0 and retire undefeated and ride off into the sunset.

The Heartbreak Kid, The Icon, The Retirement? Shawn Michaels has been wrestling in three different decades, the 80's, 90's and 2000's.

HBK has given us some of the best matches in WWE history but how long can a man go on with such a receding hairline.

Just kidding, but still, HBK can only go on for so much longer and I expect him to be another guy to leave the E at Wrestlemania 26, except since he doesn't have a streak, to be putting someone over.

So although the time might not be soon for these legends to retire, the E needs to get ready to prepare for their future and get ready to build the company back to their peak.

Shawn Michaels, Undertaker, and Batista are all some of the biggest names in wrestling history, but Vince and the rest of his goons needs to prepare for a new era, and get us ready as soon as possible.
