Diamond Dallas Page shares his thoughts on potentially wrestling when he’s 70.
WWE Hall of Famer Diamond Dallas Page, 68, has not had a match since 2020. Page attended WWE Bad Blood in October and subsequently signed his WWE Legends Deal.
Speaking on Insight with Chris Van Vliet, Diamond Dallas Page was asked whether he would wrestle at 70 years old.
“No [laughs]. It’s so important for me, my body feels good,” Page said. “I remember Bruno Sammartino and I did something. My buddy Sal Corrente was really the first guy, and he was ahead of his time to do it. I can’t remember what he called it, but it was something of Meet the Freats. It was some wrestling name Rumble, I can’t remember what it was called, but he promoted it so well that he got me and Bruno on ESPN to talk about this show. Dusty was a headliner as a signer, and Bruno feuded with Zybysko, and I was going to be his second and get it in wrestle for Bruno, who, at the time, is 70. I love Bruno Sammartino, dude, you don’t get no bigger than Bruno.
“So I tell Bruno, I go, because here is what we’re going to do at the end, we’ll do the schmoz, and you come in and you light Larry up. [He says] Oh no, no, Diamond, I don’t feel too good. Aches and pains? Most of them are gone. I’m good. I’m like, okay, Bruno. You know what happened at the end? He went in there and lit Larry up, he couldn’t stop himself. I am there for a diamond cutter. I do want to hit one when I’m 70.”
