-WWE producer, and former NWA Superstar Arn Anderson turns 54 today.

Anderson was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame last year as a member of the Four Horsemen.

-Wrestling legend Greg "The Hammer" Valentine turns 62 today. Valentine was a star in various promotions, and arguably held every major championship of his era, including the NWA United States Championship three times, except for a world belt. Valentine was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2004
