He's Back: 70 Year Old Wrestling Legend Returning To The Ring In Special Role

He can still do it. Wrestlers are different than other athletes, as you can never tell when someone is going to be away from the business for good. While a wrestler might retire from the ring for the most part, there are still ways that they can contribute to the industry, which you will often see them do. That is going to be the case again soon, as a legend will be helping out at an event.

ISPW Wrestling in New Jersey has announced by way of 411mania.com that WWE Hall Of Famer Tito Santana will be the special referee on May 27 for the ISPW Title match between Bull James and Rick Recon. There is no word on if this will be a one off appearance or a regular run with the promotion. Santana, 70, has appeared on the independent circuit for the better part of thirty years and still wrestles occasionally. His most recent match took place in November 2022 in Victoria, Australia.

Santana had an amazing career. Check out what he did in the ring in his day:

Opinion: There is something cool about seeing a name like this show up again in the ring, even without being a wrestler himself these days. Santana is one of the most accomplished stars of the 1980s and there will be a lot of fans who still remember him to this day. It’s a special moment and you never know how many more appearances Santana is going to have, so hopefully fans enjoy what they get to see.
