Kenn Doane, also known in wrestling as Kenny Dykstra shared on social media that he is opting to retiring from in-ring competition at his current age of 35. Dykstra noted that he planned to retire at 40 but investments have allowed him to step away now.
I’ve decided to retire from in ring wrestling. When I started at 13 I thought I’d retire at 40. But smart investments overtime have allowed me to be done now. I’m in my prime, and that will go towards my family and being a father. Thanks to the fans who stuck by me.
