Add two very under-rated wrestlers to that mix; Rick Martel and Barry Windham.

CWK 11-23-2009 01:10 PM

You know I was thinking of Barry Windham

You forgot one obvious guy who should stick out like a sore thumb on your singles list (put in *SPOILER* tag due to size):

CWK 11-23-2009 01:17 PM

Ehhh,

It should be a few more years on The Rock, I have a feeling we are going to see more memorable stuff with him. It will be that much more special when he does go in, he is worthy of the HOF now I think, but it should be a couple of more years, he's only 37.

CWK 11-23-2009 01:19 PM

You know for every singles wrestler I listed, its a travesty that Koko B. Ware got in before all of those guys.

Gertner 11-23-2009 01:20 PM

Yokozuna should get some consideration. He moved extremely well for a guy his size and was the top heel in the WWF for a few years.

Gertner 11-23-2009 01:21 PM

You mention Lance Russell but no mention of Gordon Solie?

CSL 11-23-2009 01:24 PM

Isn't Solie already in? JR loves him big time

CWK 11-23-2009 01:39 PM

Gordon Solie went into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2008, alongside Ric Flair and others.

Yeah but that doesn't mean anything now, there are tons of people who never worked for WWE that went into their Hall of Fame.

TGR 11-23-2009 01:42 PM

Sting needs to be in there. Paul Heyman should probably be up there as well.

I'd like to see Goldust recognized, although the HoF status may be debatable, as he's never been a world champion or anything more than a really solid midcarder.

Paul Bearer would also be a great addition.

well in that case sting should have been in there years ago

CWK 11-23-2009 01:45 PM

If Koko B. Ware can be in the Hall of Fame, Goldust could too, he was extremely hot in the WWE back in 1995 & 1996 especially.

I was really thinking it was gonna be Steve Blackmon

I see Bruno Sammartino becuase he held the WWE title for 7.5 years straight, I see Bob Backlund because he held the WWE title for over 5 years straight, I see Stu Hart because he was such a great wrestler/trainer of wrestlers/promoters in history, and Macho Man just because, as the biggest snubs of the Hall of Fame, there is no reason why those guys aren't in.

Sting is currently working for the rival company, so it's a different story.

Wolfpack423 11-23-2009 01:59 PM

"Macho Man" Randy Savage
Bruno Sammartino
Ted Dibiase
I know alot don't like him but The Ultimate Warrior-I liked him from 1988-1991
The Rock
Jake "The Snake" Roberts
Chyna
Lita
Trish Stratus
Owen Hart
The British Bulldog(s)-both deserve a spot

Wasn't Roddy Piper making regular appearances on TNA just before they inducted him into the HOF?

TGR 11-23-2009 02:11 PM

Wont happen, but RVD would be a damn good inductee as well.

erickman 11-23-2009 02:18 PM

i am suprised ether the rock an roll express or the midnight express are not in

Vastardikai 11-23-2009 02:32 PM

Much of the people included, as well as:

Kevin Sullivan (For creating the first major dark angles.)

See? I can make lame ass rebuttals too. Back up your reasoning.

BigDaddyCool 11-23-2009 02:58 PM

RVD is still wrestling off and on. Plus he was a big fish in the little pond of ECW, and medium sized fish in the sea of WWE. He is ok, not great.

Providence Peep 11-23-2009 03:05 PM

HillBilly Jim and Uncle Elmer! :y:

Anybody Thrilla 11-23-2009 03:11 PM

Kurt Angle

blake639raw 11-23-2009 03:19 PM

Definately not RVD. Yeah, he was over as hell when he first came to WWE, and arguably could have done more. However, they didn't do much with him, and potential does not = HOF.

And yes, I know that Koko B. Ware is in the HOF, so that's not a reason he should be inducted either, just because he's better than the Birdman.

TerranRich 11-23-2009 03:25 PM

LMAO, Rob Van Dam is one of my favorite wrestlers of all time, but he is NOT Hall of Fame material, nor do I see it happening at all.

Anybody Thrilla 11-23-2009 03:31 PM

RVD > Koko B. Ware in terms of ability and accomplishments even. Why not?

No doubt RVD was alot better and bigger of a name than Koko. I don't agree with Koko being in the HOF either. My point is, now that's Koko's been inducted, everybody uses him as an excuse as to why their favorite wrestler should be inducted. 2 wrongs don't make a right.

Anybody Thrilla 11-23-2009 03:37 PM

All I'm saying is that it isn't outside the realm of possibility for RVD to be inducted if Koko was. I don't necessarily think he should be in either, but I won't be shocked if it happens now.

blake639raw 11-23-2009 04:06 PM

Well, I mean, I guess anything is possible, but in RVD's case, he was made in ECW, and plus when you consider the whole getting busted thing, IDK.
