Sometimes, it's important to know when to hang up the boots. Some WWE legends have had fairytale endings to their career, while others, not so much. We've seen incredible comebacks, but more than anything, we've seen a lot of legends wrestle far past their prime and more importantly - their physical capability.

It's hard to put down such legends, primarily because of all that they've done for the business. There's no doubt that the legends we list here have cemented their place in history and will forever be remembered.

However, this is where the line needs to be drawn. It's important to know where legacy is and when it's clearly time to hang up the boots. In this list, we take at five wrestlers who are past their prime and for various reasons, shouldn't lace a pair of boots again.

They've left their mark, and now, it's time for the new generation to shine.


#5 Goldberg

Already with two wins against Lesnar, the Universal Champion prepares for his final battle against The Beast Incarnate.

In Goldberg's case, it seems almost 100% certain that he is done. There were no complaints with regards to his comeback, and he undeniably worked very hard to make it happen.

He admitted in his interviews prior to WrestleMania 33 that he was going through an immense amount of physical pain to get back into ring shape and do what he was doing. He made it clear from the start that it was for his son, and in his last run, he managed to become Universal Champion and conclude his feud with Brock Lesnar.

And what a match it turned out to be. 5 minutes of non-stop action, with the crowd on their feet the entire time. It was the first time that Goldberg had ever been pinned clean in his career, and he did the right thing by putting Lesnar over.

He has his place in the WWE Hall Of Fame, and hopefully, that will be the end of his storied career.
