Triple H, Randy Orton, The Undertaker and more WWE legends were featured on current star's throwback picture.

A current but inactive WWE star recently shared a throwback photo featuring a handful of legends such as Triple H, Randy Orton, and The Undertaker. It was one of the most iconic photoshoots of the 2000s that showcased some of the top stars at the time.

Montel Vontavious Porter oor MVP, shared the famous photo spread from the 2008 WWE Magazine featuring several superstars who were at the top of their game back then. The photo included now Hall of Famers such as The Undertaker, Shawn Michaels and Rey Mysterio and some are still wrestling in AEW such as Edge and Chris Jericho.

"Flashback to a long time ago. I was among some serious legends at this photo session. Who remembers this?" MVP wrote.
