Anyone can point out looking at the current WWE roster that the company has an age issue. The officials are reportedly aware of this too.

According to a new report from Wrestling Observer Radio, the WWE officials are very much aware that they have an age problem, with many of their current stars being close to or over 40 year old.

It’s one of the reasons for the recent revamp of NXT. Executives realize that they have to sign wrestlers in their mid-20s to get them ready for the main roster.

There is a belief among fans that WWE doesn’t care or is in denial about the current shape of the main roster and the lack of stars that can carry the company in future. Though the report suggests it’s not the case.

People within the promotion are “more than aware” of the problems they have. They are making changes to fix things in regards of their roster.

There are currently over 20 stars on the main roster who are over 40 years old. Some of them have been with the company for long such as the 41-year-old Randy Orton.

However, there are also many newly debuted stars who are in the age group, including people such as Damian Priest who is 39 years old, or Shayna Baszler who is 41.
