Merced Solis AKA Tito Santana – 67

Merced Solis gained fame in the ring as Tito Santana and he has been a fan favorite his entire career. Santana wrestled with the World Wrestling Federation from 1979 until 1993 although he made a brief break in the ’80s and later returned. He was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2004 and his autobiography titled Tito Santana’s Tales From the Ring came out in 2008. This 67-year-old is far from retirement though. He still wrestles at least several times a year. Outside of the ring, Solis is a Spanish teacher and a basketball coach in New Jersey where he lives with his family.

Scott Charles Bigelow AKA Bam Bam Bigelow – Died at 45

This professional wrestler is no longer among us. Scott Charles Bigelow wrestled under the ring name Bam Bam Bigelow. He weighed almost 400 pounds and had a large tattoo on his head, which, perhaps, was his most recognizable feature. Scott held many championships over the course of his career and maybe he would still be active in the ring if he were alive today. He managed to survive and recover from a severe motorcycle crash in 2005 but he died two years later. Bigelow was found dead in 2007 and according to the autopsy, there were multiple drugs in his system, including cocaine.

Paul Michael Levesque AKA Triple H – 50

The Triple H is short for Hunter Hearst Helmsley and he is one of the youngest wrestlers on this list. That being said, he may be one of the few who has not been involved in substance abuse issues. Levesque had actually found love, thanks to an on-screen storyline with Stephanie McMahon. They got married and welcomed three children since 2003. Triple H published a book containing bodybuilding advice titled Making the Game: Triple H’s Approach to a Better Body. He is a business executive may as well be one of the richest wrestlers with his current net worth estimated to be $40 million.
