WWE is the rival promotion of AEW
This legend's emotional gesture left fans wondering

After what has been a week of speculation and anguish for those in the wrestling fraternity, fans may have finally got an answer on whether WWE and AEW legend Billy Gunn is retired.

On the latest edition of AEW Collision, House of Black defeated the team of WWE veteran Billy Gunn and The Acclaimed to retain the World Trios Championship.

After the match, a visibly emotional Billy Gunn removed his wrestling boots and left them right in the center of the ring, leaving The Acclaimed and fans in confusion as to what was next for him.

Adding fuel to the speculations, Billy Gunn's wife, Paula Sopp, took to Twitter and posted a photo of the WWE Hall of Famer playing with their dog. She also added that it is what retirement looked like, seemingly confirming that the star is indeed retired.

"This is what retirement looks like @RealBillyGunn," she tweeted.
