"Sensational 61-year-old physique of WWE Hall of Famer leaves fitness community in awe"
Billy Gunn: A Fitness Icon and WWE Legend at 61
Billy Gunn, a true legend in the world of professional wrestling, continues to captivate audiences at the age of 61. Known for his impressive physique and enduring energy, Gunn first found success as one half of The Smoking Gunns alongside his on-screen brother Bart Gunn [1].
The duo made a name for themselves in the mid-1990s, winning the WWE Tag Team Championships an impressive three times. Gunn's wrestling career took off when he made his WWE debut in 1993 [7]. He gained more prominence in 1997 as one half of the New Age Outlaws with Road Dogg. In 1999, he reached new heights by being crowned King of the Ring and was often referred to as one of the best pure athletes in all of WWE [6].
Today, Gunn continues to wrestle, having appeared on All Elite Wrestling (AEW) TV as recently as this month. Under his 'Daddy A**' persona, he is a part of The Acclaimed in AEW. The Acclaimed, with Gunn's help, held the AEW World Trios Champions title for a record 238 days [8].
But it's not just his wrestling prowess that keeps fans hooked. Gunn's commitment to fitness is inspiring, with him maintaining an impressive physique through consistent gym workouts and bodybuilding training [5]. He regularly shares these workouts via motivational gym and training videos on social media, which have gained popularity [9].
Gunn's fitness level is so impressive that fans often comment that he doesn't look like he's spent time playing video games or watching movies. In fact, he looks 20 years younger than his actual age [4]. His gym collaborations have even broken records, with one being declared the top collab of the year on Mike O'Hearn's YouTube channel [3].
Mike O'Hearn, a former Mr Universe and a strongman, powerlifting, and mixed martial arts specialist, often features Gunn on his YouTube channel. This collaboration has been highly popular and has contributed to the channel surpassing one million subscribers [2]. Gunn's performances in the gym on O'Hearn's channel have left viewers in awe [10].
In addition to his fitness pursuits, Gunn remains actively involved in public events. He participates in bodybuilding and fitness activities, often posting updates referencing wrestling groups like The Hurt Business and the Gunn Club [5]. Gunn also engages with fans through live meet-and-greet appearances at fitness clubs, such as the upcoming event at Fit4Life Health Clubs in Garner, NC, scheduled for September 14, 2025 [3].
This blend of public fitness engagement and wrestling fandom highlights how Gunn sustains his physical condition and presence in the wrestling community even in his 60s. Fans have praised Gunn's fitness level, with some calling him an 'age-defying beast' and a 'legend of the game' [4].
