‘Diamond’ Dallas Page’s days competing in the ring are behind the WWE Hall of Famer, but the positive legend has plans for at least one last Diamond Cutter. On the Insight podcast, Page, who is 68, was asked if he’d consider wrestling again, possibly for his 70th birthday.
“No [laughs]. It’s so important for me, my body feels good.”
Page recalled wrestling a 70-year-old Bruno Sammartino as part of a fan event, which Page saw as an incredible honor. Despite Sammartino feeling like he wouldn’t be able to do much due to his “aches and pains” Page recalled the former WWWF World Champion holding nothing back when he fought off an interfering Larry Zybysko.
Page’s last official match came on the Page has no plans on competing January 15, 2020, edition of AEW Dynamite, where he was on the losing end of a six-man tag-team match. While Page doesn’t plan on wrestling at 70, the former WCW World Heavyweight Champion does have something special planned to mark the occasion.
“I am there for a diamond cutter. I do want to hit one when I’m 70.”
With his commitment to fitness and his signature brand of DDP Yoga, Page remains in excellent shape at his age, and could theoretically have a match. Nevertheless, Page is happy to leave his time in the ring in the past, though wrestlers should watch out for a Diamond Cutter out of nowhere by the WWE Hall of Famer.
