You are correct about Mil Mascaras never wrestling for WWE outside that one Rumble stint. I personally believe he belongs in the AAA and/or CMLL Hall of Fame and not in the WWE HOF, but with the induction of Abdullah the Butcher, it appears WWE will continue to induct those ill-known within the WWE fan base but having a cult following outside.
I expect WWE would induct Hiro Matsuda if its Asian American audience was as large as its Spanish American audience. Heck, someday they might induct Steve Corino, Generico, or Kevin Steen if they amass enough following outside WWE. I don't agree with the practice, but WWE sees the HOF as a marketing gimmick and will try to win crossover fans like they have tried with celebrity inductions.
