Who in your opinion deserves a WWE hall of fame induction?

[ColePens]

Vader
Owen Hart
Rick Rude
The Steiner Bros (The best tag team of all time imo, but most likely won't due to Scott Steiner's hatred of Triple H)
Demolition
British Bulldogs
Hart Foundation
Brian Pillman
Rick Martel
Barry Windham
Sid Vicious
Butch Reed
RVD
Chyna
Luna Vachon
Bobby Eaton (WCW wrestler but one of the most underrated workers of his era)
Dick Murdoch (On both wrestling talent and ring psychology...absolutely. But probably won't due to his alleged KKK ties)
Jack Tunney

The WWE has made the Hall of Fame the Hall of Good, so I agree all of those people deserve to be in. But if the HOF actually meant something and it was a legit HOF, then I could argue against a lot of those individuals.

Rick Martel is a huge omission at this point. AWA champ (when that meant something), tag champ many times, great babyface, great heel, terrific wrestler.

Agreed.

An absolute travesty that The Model didn't have, at the very least, a run as IC Champ as he had the entire package to be a VERY memorable one at that.

Ok, which ones?

IF this was a legit WWE(F) HOF, then pretty much any of them. Pro Wrestling HOF, different story.

If it were a Pro Wrestling HOF, then there would hardly be any wrestlers left to induct each year as the criteria would be extremely strict I'd imagine.

 

[OmniSens]

Finlay, Hart foundation, Pillman, Vader, Rock, etc. Most of my choices are already noted in the thread.

In either case, Daniel Bryan over pretty much anyone listed thus far...and he wasn't even on your list!

Stopped watching wrestling 10 years ago so I haven't really seen enough of Daniel Bryan to form an opinion about him...but I believe you!

No worries. Some of it is just fanboyism. lol

The obvious ones off the top of my head: Vince McMahon, The Rock, Rick Rude (though I read he will be inducted this year), Demolition, British Bull Dog, Bruiser Brody (despite most of his work outside of WWE), Honky Tonk Man, Vader

Some "fillers" or outside the box candidates...
- Sid: Former champion and seems in good graces with the WWE now
- King Kong Bundy: Headlined a WrestleMania and was a star in the 80s, but seems to have heat with WWE
- Paul Heyman: As a manager and promoter? He is in good graces again
- Steiner Brothers: Probably deserve it but Scott is too much of a hot-head and wasn't he banned a few years back?
- Brian Pillman: Made his name outside the WWE and died due to drugs which will make WWE reluctant to put him in
- Teddy Long: Long time employee, fairly memorable ref/GM, again just a filler candidate

There's not a chance Vince will let them while he is alive.

And rightfully so since it's his hall of fame. That would just be seen as self-aggrandizing.

 

[Blainer114*]

Anyone think the outlaws could get in even with billy gunn being fired not too long ago?

 

[Eskie Jetski]

How about Earthquake? The guy got to main event against Hogan and was a top heel in the early 90s. He could make his character legitimately scary with his promo work and his finisher even while playing face.

Guy doesn't even like the people being inducted talking about him.

I heard Natural Disasters are a go this year.

Can't forget those golga days

 

[Big Poppa Puck]

Not gonna lie, I was a Golga mark because of the Cartman stuff.

 

[Behn Wilson]

They should put Vader in this year but sounds like someone has a grudge on him and they wont. Too bad, the guy wont make it thru the year with his current health problems, it would be the decent thing to do putting him in.

 

[Sheppy]

DDP will rescue Vader.
