Also, Bobby Jaggers should be inducted this year. Lets all write letters to Vince saying he should induct him. RIP.

Honestly had no idea Backlund hadn’t made the HoF so far. I would have thought that he’d been inducted ages ago, but apparently not.

Definitely agree that as far as the first two in, this is possibly the strongest class ever. Excited to see who else makes the cut.

If they get Bruno by some Hail Mary miracle it'll be epic. The man carried the business for nearly 2 decades.

Owen should have been inducted alongside Bret
I'm liking the class so far. Mick Foley's clearly been deserving of the accolade for quite some time now. The fact that Edge got in before him is kinda feather-ruffling. And Bob Backlund, I went through about 5 emotions seeing him announced. It was one of those, 1. "Oh wow!" Shock 2. "Good for him" Approval 3. "Wait a minute" Comprehension 4. "He's not already in?" Frustration/Confusion 5. "What the fuck? You fucking dicks" Anger I just really hope Rock doesn't go in, yet. I feel there are several others who deserve it more than he does for the time being. He'll get his, but it shouldn't be now |

Remember, WWE isn't at fault for Owen Hart not being inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame. Understandably so, Owen's wife wants nothing to do with WWE or wrestling in general.

With these two returning on Raw this past year, how about either Sid or Vader? People shit on Sid. Or Sid shits on himself, but the guy accomplished a TON in wrestling. Multi time champ in WWF and WCW and was much better than CM Punk

Sid and Vader will probably get in one day. They have to do this every year, so the field weakens. Shut the fuck up Sid isn't a better wrestler than CM Punk.

Backlund was offered the HOF years ago, he turned it down because at the time he didn't feel his career was over yet. |

I think Bruno should go in now,because it's at MSG. Perhaps they should induct Larry Zybyzco in as well sometime soon. Should also induct Jake Roberts in too ,that is if he is not already in.

Bruno refuses to be inducted. That isn't WWE politics, but Bruno being a bitter old twat. Larry Zbyszko would be an interesting induction.

Rock should get inducted later down the line as the center piece for that year's HOF induction. I'd prefer it happen long after his current stint is done though. Let him leave and get some nostalgia built up from the people then in 3 or 4 years... "And the first inductee into the WWE Hall of Fame Class of 2016..." *drum beat* "IF YA SMEEEEEELLLLLL!!!!!".
As for this year, I'm pretty stoked so far. Mick deserves it and is one of my all time favorites, Backlund I'm surprised like everyone else isn't already in, and Trish is a perfect choice. Kinda like to see Lita get in at some point too though two women in one year is stretching since we're talking about WWE here. |

Also think it'd be awesome to see Booker get the nod if he is indeed done with in-ring competition.

I'd really like to see Ultimate Warrior inducted, but I think Vince and co. would be scared shitless of him going "off-script" and just going nuts and making the entire thing awkward for the rest of the night.
