Official WWE Hall of Fame 2011 Discussion
Figured we could use an official thread for this.

WHO THE FUCK IS IT
|
OH, THE SUSPENSE!
Edit: Oh my god, you did it again :mad: |

TOVO Fact: Tovo's favorite class in grade school was gym. |
Not a single guy on earth deserves this more good for the Heart Break Kid
|
|
For what he did for the WWE for nearly 22 years, I agree with the induction. I hope someone in HBK's past induct him...Marty Jannetty, Triple H...hell, even Chris Jericho.
Congratulations, Shawn!!! |
DLVH, it is obvious who will induct Michael Shawn Hickenbottom into the World Wrestling Entertainment Professional Wrestling Hall of Fame...

I remember reading somewhere (I think TPWW's front page...who, of course, copied it from another wrestling website, certainly), that the idea of having Bret Hart induct HBK had been thrown around. Who knows?
If not, it'll almost certainly be Triple H. |
Well it's about time.
|
Anyone who doesn't think it will be Triple H to induct him is delusional.
TOVO Fact: Tovo does not use the expression; "Don't go there." There is no where that is off limits for Tovo. |

I certainly can see Vince McMahon inducting him. |
JR.
|
It will be HHH.
Shawn has said that he wanted Bret to induct him but we all know how HHH will react. |
It will be whoever Shawn Michaels wants to induct him. If he wants it to be Triple H, it will be Triple H. If he wants it to Bret Hart, for whatever reason, I'm sure Triple H will let it be so. It is HBK's moment.
Arn Anderson is said to be a lock, but I do also hope we get what Drew McIntyre and Matt Striker have teased on SmackDown!, and Theodore Long makes it in as a less prominent induction. |
As great as this is for HBK I would love to see the boys Nash, Hall andPac. Already saw Waltman's twitter about it...
|
Ron Simmons is someone I could see going in. He was the first African-American World Champion, played a pretty integral part in the dawning of the Attitude era, and was a fun part of it himself as part of the APA. Plus, he still has a good relationship with the WWE.
This one is a bit of a stretch, but as far as other big names go, what if Vince McMahon gets sneaky and slips Brock Lesnar in? Vince has apparently said he wants Lesnar to be a part of WrestleMania, and Dana White has said it won't happen -- but what if Vince uses the Hall of Fame as a way of edging it in? Fit Finlay is another less featured addition I can see. The guy's career is pretty much over -- the only difference between now and later is that Finlay is going to get older. With the WCW theme rumoured, Finlay has ties to that, too. |
I'm hoping to see Simmons, Malenko (could be the brothers going in as a duo), AA, and maybe some sort of WCW celebrity (Rodman, Leno, Ted Turner).
|
they might put the outsiders in and make it a klic reunion, an if they can get sting, they may be able to do a nwo type screw job on the undertaker.
|
Is Daffney being inducted, too? :shifty:
For anyone who missed this on the front page: Sean “X-Pac” Waltman tweeted the following regarding Shawn Michaels WWE Hall of Fame induction: “I have no words right now to describe how happy I am for Shawn. No one deserves it more. I will be there to see him inducted if I have to f—ing hitchhike to get there… I would love for the Wolfpac to be in attendance that night. I’m trying to think of the last time The Kliq were all together. 2002?” |
I'm still hoping it will contain mostly WCW alumni
|
thier is rumored to be 2 more big names confirmed . but clark didnt say who

Interesting. |
Even more interesting though, is who's gonna induct Bullet Bob Armstrong. Because having Scott the referee do it seems like a letdown when he's got a much more famous son that could do it...
|
Hey Supreme, who's his more famous son? :?:
|
Oh, you didn't know?
|
Bullet Bob Armstrong definitely deserves the HOF induction
He was a damn good wrestler in the 70's and 80's I'd like all 4 of his sons to induct him Plus it'd be cool to see what Brad looks like nowadays actually Brad is just as famous as Brian |

There not gonna induct someone who wrestles in TNA :shifty: Side Note, I think its sad when they mention that Bullet's boots are 35 years old and that older than most of the TNA roster at that time. Too bad thats not true today :'( |
Quote:
|
Sweet.
Hope Road Dogg is actually referred to as Road Dogg tho. |
Seth, Brad Armstrong was a damn good wrestler but he was nowhere near as famous as one half of one of the most popular tag teams in history.
|
Brad was a helluva lot better then his brother Road Dogg
damn good wrestler |
Except he was boring as fuck.
|

ScottArmstrong_ Scott Armstrong by CMPunk ME, Brad, Steve and Road dogg will b inducting our dad in the HOF! Family Reunion at Mania!!! THAT'S livin the dream!!!!!!! |
Shit, get Billy Gunn there and it will be a reunion of VKM as well.

2011 WWE Hall of Fame Thread [Spoilers]
So far we know that the class this far is:
Shawn Michaels "Hacksaw" Jim Duggan "Bullet" Bob Armstrong and a report says: http://www.businessinsider.com/full-...evealed-2011-2 SPOILER: show |
I think that's a legit class. I can't complain.
|
|
It'll be interesting because Road Dogg said Hunter was a complete and total piece of shit in several interviews since his departure.
|
Yeah, now he might have to eat those words. I really doubt Hunter really has time for the shoot vids, but word probably got around to him, so you really don't know what could/would happen.
|
Merge magic, Juan.
|
|
Awesome, should be a fun show. Too bad it wont be live and crazy like normal.
|

|
I know they aren't showing on TV till Monday after but really hoping they show it online or something live.
|
|
*Spoiler* The biggest name announced for the HOF yet!
|
I like how your sig relates to this thread.
|
Hey remember when this was going to be the WCW Hall of Fame inductions
|
Meh whatever it's the celeb wing.
|
Bob Barker to induct
|
Seriously? cause that's an awesome idea.
|
It just came to me. I'm sure Vince would love it. Rumor was they wanted Barker invovled with Mania weekend anyways so it all just seems like a natural fit
|
Quote:
That'd be amazing. |
Mr. T. anyone? If anyone deserves to be in Celebrity Wing its him. He freakin Main Evented 2 Manias. Mike Tyson too just ushering in the Attitude Era at WM 14 but Mr. T should undoubtedly be in.
|
Yeah that would be the only way to make sense of this induction.
|
Quote:
|
It's not a matter of who they want so much as it probably is who they can get. They need the inductee to show up and accept, if they want to get anything out of it.
I'm sure Mr. T and Tyson would both be in right now if scheduling had allowed for it, but until they decide they want to fly out to Wrestlemania weekend it's not going to happen. If it was up to Vince, he'd put whoever he could that was the most famous in. |
Bob Barker should be the one getting inducted BY Drew not the other way around.
|
No. Reversing it is what makes it interesting. This is showbusiness
|
I've heard they wanted Mr. T, but he was insulted when they put Pete Rose in before him and turned them down.
And I can't blame him, honestly. Yeah, it's a mark thing to do for the WWE HOF, especially the celebrity wing, but T deserves it more than almost anyone else celeb-wise, outside of maybe Lauper and Tyson. |
Quote:
|
By the way, Tiny "Zeus" Lister for the celebrity wing! I mean... it's just the celebrity wing. Time to get a good amount of people in that shit.

After watching the Real Story of Mania today there are definitely some that should go in I was reminded of. The previously stated Mr T. and Tyson obviously.
I would throw Donald Trump in. His involvement in WM 4 and WM 5 at his place. Along with the whole Battle of the Battle of the Billionaires in WM 23. Aretha Franklin. Yes. Her. Her God Bless America at WM 3 and 23 were both great and the WM 3 performance was legendary considering the size of the crowd. LT. I know won't be happening now due to the issues with the law and stuff but before all that happened he would have been perfect. Another Celebrity to Main Event Wrestlemania. Cyndi Lauper. Her whole being in the Rock N Wrestling deal was huge to get the first Mania off the ground and get WWE into mainstream at that time. Muhammad Ali. Again doubtful but his involvement in WM 1, like Tyson at 14 really brought mainstream in just on his name. Could easily have his daughter come in and accept for him |
|
Could a mod please edit the actual title of the thread? Just take out the "Six Inductees Confirmed" and make it "Official WWE Hall of Fame 2011 Discussion". I can't edit it myself, I can only edit the one that shows up in the thread itself, not the thread listing.
|
There you go, dear.
|
You're a doll.

Abdullah definitely deserves it
I wonder who'll induct him though? |
Terry Funk, read on teh dirt sheets.
|
So who will be the last one ? We do have one more raw to go . Road Warriors or Luger ?
|
They're in Chicago next week. I've heard it's the Road Warriors.
|
Any news on who is doing the inducting/introducing?
|
Dusty Rhodes from what I've heard.
|
why not Heidenreich?
I thought he wus an honorary Road Warrior :lol: |
|
kinda pumped to see Road Warriors going in the HOF
seemed like the crowd didn't react as loudly as they probably thought and it's nice to see Paul Ellering going in with them he was actually a wrestler before he managed Hawk and Animal |
Loved LOD

That's what I was asking for. The full list of who was inducting who. Not who was inducting LOD.
|
I thought I just read that Bret Hart wasn't going to Mania this year at all lol Guess Sunny changes his mind
