Predict the 2016 Hall of Fame
 

So as of right now the only name confirmed for this year's Hall of Fame is Sting and there's been rumour of various names as is standard.

So TPWW Wrestling Forum, who do you think will be inducted alongside the Vigilante, Sting.

Bear in mind they usually have around two big names, kind of a mid card name, a tag team, a female performer, an International performer, a manager or announcer and a celebrity.

I pitch that the Class of 2016 will be

• Sting
• British Bulldog
• Vader
• The Freebirds
• Jushin Liger
• JBL
• Sable
• Lemmy/Motorhead

There really are fewer and fewer glaring omissions with each passing year, but a few for me would include the Steiners, Sid, Taz, Christian, the Godfather, and, to a lesser extent, Molly Holly and Ivory.

Warrior Award: Jim Johnson. The creator of the Warrior theme song and Czar of WWE Music.

The woman inductee being discussed is Jacqueline not Sable.

Sable I could see getting in at the Minnesota Wrestlemania due to the Lesnar Factor.

If the Freebirds don't get in this year, it will be a shame. They were HUGE in Dallas vs Von Erich's. Wouldn't be a more perfect place for them to go in.

Bulldog and Owen both should go in but I don't see either one going in this year.

I could see Liger being the International Star. Wrestling at Takeover last year makes me think a deal was already in place back then.

Warrior Award was perfection last year so will curious the direction they go with it this go around.

Vader is a lock from what I read.

Demolition needs to get in some year but with Freebirds going in, I think that might be another case of wait till next year.

It shocks me Rick Rude isn't in this yet. One of the biggest Omissions for me. Would be great to see him go in.

Celebrity? Um... Arquette? Really stumped with this now they have Mr T in. Maybe LT since he Main Evented a Mania but I think he still has some legal stuff going on so that will be a future pick. As noted above, Lemmy would be logical this year.

Vader and Sting were my favorite wrestlers as a kid and them going in together would be pretty cool.

It was fucking bullshit, disgusting propaganda, and a PR back slap that reeked of masturbatory self-aggrandizement. Someone like Jim Johnston, a seamstress, or a referee/ring crew worker would be much more appropriate and in the spirit that the Warrior actually wished for.

When the Dudleys' go in, would you fellers include Spike?

Andy Kaufman is long overdue in the celebrity wing.

:y:

Probably for the Minnesota WM, but Rick Martel is a big omission, in my book.

Argument against Spike: The WWE did not include Heidenreich when the Legion of Doom went in. Waldo and Lance were excluded when the Von Erichs went in to the Hall of Fame in 2009. After checking the web page, the WWE couldn't be bothered to find photos of Mike and Chris Von Erich as well ... so I am going with Spike Dudley in the HOF will not happen.

is Rick Rude in the HoF?

Nope, and that is the most obvious one who should go in.

If this is still 'Taker's planned retirement match, he should go in this year.
