Who does Austin Want to Induct Him.....

not JR













But Flair

As announced last night on Raw, Steve Austin is first Superstar announced for this year’s Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony.

WWE thought Jim Ross would be the perfect person to induct Austin into the Hall of Fame, but he requested and pushed for Ric Flair to induct him instead.

Company officials are not pleased with Austin’s request because they have a “you’re either with us or against us” attitude. They see Flair as a “outsider” and “not on board” with them anymore. Simply put, WWE prefers to not acknowledge Flair or give him press at this time.

A similar situation happened two years when Jerry “The King” Lawler wanted legendary Memphis announcer Lance Russell to induct him into the WWE Hall of Fame. Officials refused Lawler’s request and opted to have William Shatner induct him into the Hall of Fame instead for press purposes.

[Fox]

VINCE: Come on, Steve. Isn't there anyone else? Ric just isn't jiving with the way the company wants itself to be perceived right now.

AUSTIN: How about Macho Man?

VINCE: No.

AUSTIN: Chris Benoit's dad?

VINCE: No.

AUSTIN: Hulk?

VINCE: No.

AUSTIN: Rock?

VINCE: No.

AUSTIN: Bret Hart?

VINCE: ....maybe.

I don't even get the lizard thing. Is it meant to be funny? Seriously, I must have missed its conception, or something.

Also, I'm a bit shocked that Austin wouldn't want Jim Ross inducting him, but I think JR would understand. Austin is one of the greatest wrestlers ever, and he deserves to have a great wrestler inducting him. Plus, Austin would probably really look up to Flair, and all that. While good friends with JR, I doubt Austin really sees him a big career influence.

[Volare]

**crickets**

[GD]

Shut up Taker707!

[Mercury Bullet]

It doesn't have anything to do with anything, and thats the point.

[Haze]

I bet if it's not JR, it will be Flair.
