Who has gotten better with age?

What do you mean by "get better with age?"

Obviously - a wrestler that is 21 years old (and sticks with wrestling) will be a lot better in a few years. With that being said, almost EVERYONE in the WWE fits that mold (or if they started at a later age...and then got better).

Having said that - I don't think anyone above the age of 35 (who has been wrestling for a LONG time) has gotten better.

-Given the fact that these wrestlers are 'aging' (combined with the extreme physical demands of the sport), it's almost impossible. Guys like Angle, Undertaker, Jericho, HBK, Benoit, Triple H, etc. are all/were great wrestlers, but aren't the wrestlers that they once were. Benoit is dead.
