Billy Gunn Reflects On Staying In Shape At 62, Still being Able to Go In the Ring

Billy Gunn is known for being in great shape these days considering he’s over 60, and he recently discussed how he’s been able to do so. The AEW star is 62 years old and is often credited for being in the best shape of his life. Gunn hasn’t competed on AEW TV in a while but has appeared on ROH On HonorClub, teaming with Brady Booker & Elijah Drago in a couple of recent six-man tag team matches.

Gunn spoke about staying in shape during his recent appearance on Insight With Chris Van Vliet. He spoke about his condition and how while he’s not a “WrestleMania five-star guy,” he still loves what he’s doing. You can see the highlights below:

On His Physical Condition At 62:

“So here comes my Titan Medical plug. Everybody’s going to take this the wrong way, and it’s what it is. Everybody has their opinion. But you need help in longevity, help in health, help in nutrition, help in your fitness. And I have all that. Titan Medical is one of the leading peptide companies in Tampa that has just made me an ambassador, whatever, a sponsored athlete. So it’s not Mike [O’Hearn’s] company. Mike is also a me, Mike did it first and then I jumped on board. When you work or do what I do at a level that I do.

“Am I a WrestleMania five-star guy? No, I’m not anymore, and I know that, and I’ve never once said that I was, but there’s still a part of me that loves to do this. It’s not for egotistical things, it’s not for any of that. It’s because I genuinely love what I do, and I work for 1FW, which is QT Marshall’s company. It’s a Georgia company. We just had a huge show in Rome that was awesome, little Arn Anderson thing, because that’s where he’s from. I will break it here. I was in a cage, not for long, but I was in there and I touched it. But yeah, Titan Medical is one of the leading people in helping you be that way, getting you through those injuries, make you feel better. I’m not going to go on a peptide thing here, but they’re naturally found in your body anyway. As we get older, we’re just kind of losing that so we kick it back in gear for longevity, health, hair, whatever you need it for.”

On Still Having Agility in the Ring:

“Well, to me, I’ve lost a step, but I appreciate that. I fake it very well. I think it was, like a few months ago, I was like, getting too heavy, because I was really eating and trying to put on size for some ungodly reason.”
