This could open some gates to other wrestlers who never made a huge impact but were always a delight to see on tv. Who else who never made it past mid-card status could go into the HoF?


If Koko can get into the HoF, I'm thinking within the next few years well see The Bushwhackers, Jake Roberts, and The Nasty Boys in the HoF.

Thoughts? Comments? Anyone you think we'll see in the HoF since they let Koko in the HoF?

I could see The Godfather go in. He was around for a long-ass time under various gimmicks, and was always over. Also had some relatively high-profile feuds and angles as Papa Shongo.

They will put you in the HOF as a thank you for giving all your money back to them

Jake Roberts deserves to be in anyway. He definitely wouldn't get a 'Koko' reaction from me.

I have a sick feeling that Hornswoggle might get in one day.

Jake Roberts should go in. Unfortunately, his hall of fame ring would be sold on ebay soon after.

It's weird, the other day I read an interview where HBK and HHH, while promoting WM27 in Atlante, said Goldberg wasn't "HOF material" because he didn't have a long career. They said the HOF was for people who achieved great things in the wrestling business over a long period of time. Yet Koko B. Ware is in the HOF. So is Pete Rose.

I don't think they should just add anyone to the Hall of Fame if they're better than Koko B. Ware. Just because they made a few mistakes with inductions doesn't mean that makes it's okay to make more mistakes. Koko B. Ware definitely shouldn't be the cut off point.

Koko was a very successful tag wrestler in the territories. It's not completely ridiculous that he made it in. HOF isn't just about WWE.

For every god damn new poster that comes into this forum, Pete Rose is in the HoF as a celebrity. It also ties into baseball not letting him into the baseball HoF. HE IS NOT IN THE WWE HOF BECAUSE OF WHAT HE DID AS A WRESTLER.

well, if the Brooklyn Brawler can make it in (without the 5'oclock shadow or the newsie hat, mind you), then the second most famous jobber in the world surely should make the ballot.

I think Jake Roberts should be counted on a different level than the Nastys or the Bushwhackers. Jake was over, and though never a 'main eventer', was definitely with the likes of Jim Duggan, Curt Hennig, etc. - guys who were WAY recognizable for their generation and could have been main eventers, 'only if'.

Especially Jake though, as he'd had that 'mainstream' appeal.

I feel Koko was put in because of his style of wrestling not what he achieved. He was after all one of the first "high flyers" in mainstream US wrestling and was thus years ahead of his time.

But hey, don't let that get in thte way of using him as the reason 75% of westlers should go in the HoF.

Should Marty Jannetty be in the HOF?

He was in one of the better tag teams in the early era of WWF and part of the most famous angle in history, even if he is a laughing stock and used as a word for the weak link in a tag team.

I think Jannetty would eventually be in the HOF with Shawn Michaels as The Rockers. He had brief, but amazing, runs as Intercontinental Champion and as a World Tag Team Champion with The 1-2-3 Kid.

Owen: His wife doesn't want anything to do with WWE
Foley: still in TNA, so probably have to wait until his contract expires
Rude: Could see that happen this or next year.

Daniel Tosh should induct Rick Rude.

I can see Jake not going in under the following logic:

1. The 'E, fearing his personal demons, have decided to not induct him until he dies.
2. Jake, having done so many drugs, is pickled like Keith Richards and Lemmy, so is incapable of dying.

If Jake gets into the Hall of Fame it'll be "In memory of" two years after his death. There is no way they'll want someone to get into the Hall of Fame who has a 50/50 shot of ODing the next night.
