Wrestling Icons and Challenges Beyond WWE

The wrestling world is filled with iconic figures, many of whom have achieved greatness outside of WWE, such as Mitsuharu Misawa and Jay Lethal. WrestleMania remains a dream stage, with legends like Ric Flair never headlining, while others like Ted DiBiase Sr. have faded from memory despite significant roles. Current WWE stars face challenges, with Finn Balor's potential as a main eventer being largely underutilized. The Undertaker remains a cornerstone of WrestleMania history with his 21-match winning streak. As WrestleMania 41 approaches, the build-up has been mixed, with some stars failing to generate expected excitement. The crossover between wrestling and acting has been tumultuous, exemplified by David Arquette's controversial involvement in WCW.
