- Thanks to Mike Noland for help with this story...

Hacksaw Jim Duggan had to cancel an appearance with East Coast Pro Wrestling on April 2nd due to a contractual obligation with the WWE.

It's no secret that The WWE Hall of Fame Ceremony is the night before Wrestlemania 21, which would be Saturday April 2nd.

Putting two and two together, its fair to speculate that Duggan could be the next inductee into the Hall of Fame. However, this is not confirmed, so take it as a strong rumor at this point.

ECPW has posted some info, which can be read here.

Haha.
He's going to bring his 2 by 4 and beat the crap out of Hassan. :shifty:

WWE is on a massive 80's kick I see. Induct Flair already you stupid bastiges

:y: Duggan deserves it.

Maybe the night before Duggan and the Iron Sheik can go for a nice drive with Cheech and Chong.

motherfuckers need Hogan and Savage to make it legit.

There we go, that's what the WWE needs, Savage and Hogan in the same room together...

There are SOOOO many people who should be in before some of the current inductees. Jim Duggan? Are you kidding me?

Indeed. He shoulda been one of the first ones in there.

He's still "active." So he can't go in till he retires.


I'd love to see Macho Man and Hogan. And then Savage can challenge Cena to a Rap-Off. :lol: Smell the ratings.

Duggan? Why?

I like it, HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO :y:

that's all I remember him for.

hooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

then in the game doin that 3 point stance and that clothesline

Don't forget about his cancer.

HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Duggan = The greatest jobber of all time

People forget Duggan was a King and a Royal Rumble winner :yes:

This is the hall of fame that has Pete Rose in it, right?

I met Hacksaw the other day....he wrestled for the indy fed that was over every once in a while because he owns part of it. He came down and of course won the heavyweight belt and disapeared for a long time. Then returned four months later and lost the belt.

Im happy to see that he will make it into the hall of fame hopefully because he was one of my favorite wrestlers growing up and meeting him was like a dream come true.

I swear he won the first Royal Rumble too?

^^fuck, couldn't edit it fast enough :mad: errrr, you guys trying to put one over me.

yea, first Rumble winner and a "King." My mind was jumbled there.

Oh. Didn't know they had a rule like that.

I met Hacksaw so this is awesome.

A lot of other guys should of maybe been ahead of him. Although I think he deserves it for sure.

if i remember correctally wasnt he the first man to knock yokozuna off his feet

To be honest, I'm not sure if it's a rule, but I'd assume that's why they don't have him in. Just going by what other sports use as criteria, and I'd expect that the WWE would adhere as part of the kayfabe.

yes, yes he was.

But then the evil Yoko crushed him and hacksaw was bleeding out of his mouth. I was really worried about him

Fact is, while Hacksaw worked for WWE he put in tons of time, got to basically all of his dates, and just about any worker will tell you - made WWE a great deal of money.

He was indeed a solid draw for pretty much the whole time he was with the company, and sold his fair share of seats and merchandise (when it was available). He was just a naturally popular guy, and still really is. Ran into him again at the Wrestle Reunion in January, and he got the crowd going there really big.

Not that it really counts (although it should, because they are inducting Mr. Solie) he was also way over in WCW, and did good for the promotion as well, playing along with everything they gave him. Should there be guys in ahead of Hacksaw? Definitely, but he has nothing to do with that decision making, so good for him :y:

I smell something...
