Hall of Fame Discussion Thread
 

Well, who knows? Some notables might come out of it?

Tonight, WWE inducts the following into their Hall of Fame (Inductors in parenthesis):

Bret 'Hitman' Hart (by 'Stone Cold' Steve Austin)
Eddie Guerrero (by Chavo Guerrero, Rey Mysterio and Chris Benoit)
Sensational Sherri Martel (by 'Million $ Man' Ted DiBiase)
The Blackjacks (by Bobby 'The Brain' Heenan)
'Mr. USA' Tony Atlas (by Special Delivery Jones)
'Mean' Gene Okerlund (by Hulk Hogan)
Verne Gagne (by Greg Gagne)
William 'The Refridgerator' Perry (by John Wigneck)

The first two hours will be shown live on www.WWE.com, via a webcast, and the final hour will be live on USA Network (but not here in the UK :()

So what time does this webcast start, in UK time??

Think maybe 2 am? Not sure though.

The clocks going forward last week has thrown everything off. Raw starts at 3am over here nowadays, where it used to start at 2am!! Yet the pay-per-view, which usually airs at 1am, now starts at 12am tomorrow night. So is WrestleMania starting TWO hours earlier than your normal PPV?? I'm confused.

I don't remember there being any issues like this last year

Didn't the clocks go forward today in america?

They did? I wasn't even sure if they DO change in the U.S. They don't change in Europe. Or do they??

Not until Sunday morning.

Ok so how long is it till this thing kicks off?

Must be 2am then, in that case.

Anybody wanna make this "sticky", a la your typical Raw/PPV threads?

Or should I have put the magic word (OFFICIAL) in the title for that to happen? :)

3 am we have to wait for it over here! The bret hart thing is on at 2:15 so.....

So how can I watch the hall of fame in the uk?I don't have broadband so i can't really watch it on the internet.

You'll have to wait until Sky Sports shows it next week, or download it.

Pre-Hall of Fame photos online at WWE.com

Who's the guy in the background of the Austin/Hart pic? Looked like Eric Bischoff at first glance.

I'm pretty sure that IS Bischoff...

LOL at Goldust in makeup...

Bret Hart..goddamn right.

It's not Bischoff, I think it might be Heenan.

The media player is up and ready to go....

Who is that with Tatanka, looks very familiar to me...?

Isn't it a Guerrero?

That is Eddie's brother - the name eludes me right now but it's not Hector.

Yes it's Mando Guerrero

LOL, in the Superstar Graham/Jimmy Hart picture I can only identify one person in the background: Funaki! WWE... NUMBA 1 WALDO!

Edit: Oh, wait, Striker's in the corner... :$

Apparently it isn't live (it's being taped right now) and Shawn is in the crowd.

Also, Batista's there.

This should an emotional/mark out night. Seeing Bret's just going to make me explode.

Bret's speech is going to be VERY emotional. I as well as others will shed a tear I'm sure.

Of course Shawn would be there. I'm sure Vince had a long talk with Bret about that. I bet its a mandatory thing for all the superstars to be there. Plus I'm sure Sherri would be upset not to see Shawn there, since the two of them worked very well together

ROFL! I can't wait for Cena inducting The Fridge! :rofl:

Well sure. I'm just saying...

Who is that with Angle and Hardy? Looks a little like Doug Basham after a crash diet.

I want to say I've seen him. I think he may be in OVW and is a regular jobber.

How old is Billy Graham nowadays?? And he's still dyeing that beard. WHY?

Here goes...

I think it's the ref - Chris Kay.

Man, I wish this was live

Here we go!

I thought JR was presenting it

They changed it to Jerry because JR is calling WrestleMania.

I guess JR can't do two nights in a row anymore...

So, the oldschoolers going first?
