Eric Young Reveals When He Plans to Retire from Pro Wrestling

Eric Young isnā€™t just thinking about his next match ā€“ heā€™s thinking about when itā€™ll be his last.

During an recent interview with Chris Van Vliet, the 44-year-old veteran opened up about his retirement plans, shedding light on how much time he believes he has left in the ring. Spoiler alert: the clock is ticking.

Young, whoā€™s carved out an incredible career across promotions like TNA/IMPACT Wrestling and WWE, made it clear that he has no intention of overstaying his welcome. ā€œI donā€™t want to be the guy whoā€™s just taking up space,ā€ Young said. ā€œThatā€™s not fair to the talent coming up.ā€

Despite being in his mid-40s, Young believes heā€™s got another solid four or five years left to offer the wrestling world before he hangs up his boots for good. ā€œIā€™m 44 now, and Iā€™ll be 45 in December,ā€ he said. ā€œBut I donā€™t think my wrestling is much different than it was 15 years ago.ā€ Still, he knows that eventually, age catches up with everyone, and when he feels he canā€™t keep up with the new crop of talent, thatā€™s when heā€™ll call it quits.

With over 20 years in the business, Eric Young has seen it all and done it all. From his championship reigns in TNA to his memorable moments in WWE, heā€™s earned his place among wrestlingā€™s elite. But even legends have to step aside someday, and for Young, that day isnā€™t too far off.

As Eric Young begins to plan for life after wrestling, fans are left wondering ā€“ how will the industry fill the void when a veteran like Young steps away? Will he stay involved behind the scenes, or will we see him embark on a new chapter altogether? Only time will tell.
