I figured you (among the pop culture-literate people I know) would understand/appreciate the significance of that conclusion

It really is. He so fit the archetype of what a wrestler should be that it seemed like he had always been around. When I heard he died I was shocked he was only 61. Had no idea he was so young at the peak of his career.

In some sense, he's "timeless" like those similarly "timeless" but nevertheless completely "of the moment" album covers and other artifacts you appreciate
