All the wrestlers listed here either had an official retirement ceremony or haven’t wrestled in so long (5+ years) they are assumed to be retired. If a wrestler comes back for a rare one-shot match after retiring (such as Sachie Abe and Azumi Hyuga did in 2017), they will not be removed from this list. If the wrestler begins wrestling a more active schedule after retiring (such as Chigusa Nagayo has done half a dozen times) then the wrestler will be removed from this page and placed on a more accurate page until they officially retire again. This list will continue to be updated over time to add more Classic wrestlers, I have split up the wrestlers into three categories to make it easier to navigate.
