Let's make this birthday one to remember.

72 years old (Born on February 28, 1953)

Happy Birthday to the legendary Ricky "The Dragon" Steamboat! From soaring off ropes and breathing fire in the ring, your epic victory capturing the NWA World Heavyweight Championship back in 1989 still has fans roaring. Decades later, we're pretty sure you could pin half today's wrestlers without breaking a sweat—or losing that iconic headband.

In 2009, WWE finally inducted you into their Hall of Fame—officially recognizing what we've known all along: you're wrestling royalty. May this birthday be as timeless as your classic matches—and may no one dare challenge The Dragon when it comes time for cake-cutting duties!
