Liger made his professional wrestling debut in 1984 at the age of 20-years-old. He decided to hang up his boots earlier this year following an illustrious 36-year career.

Liger’s final match came on night two of NJPW’s WrestleKingdom show. Liger teamed with Naoki Sano as the duo were defeated by Hiromu Takahashi and Ryu Lee.

Liger has only wrestled one match for WWE. This came in August 2015 at NXT TakeOver: Brooklyn where he defeated Tyler Breeze in singles competition.

For those who might have missed the news, Liger will join the nWo, Batista, The Bella Twins, JBL and the aforementioned British Bulldog into going into the Hall of Fame this year.
