Scott Hall was a decent wrestler and of course his highlights would be the ladder match with HBK at WM10 and his part as the original NWO. But then for me that was it, unless I really am missing something. He was never a main eventer or 'the man' and as I keep saying NWO would never have worked if Hogan hadn't been involved, it would have just fizzled out with someone else. Sure he was a key player in that invasion storyline but as I said he fed off the success of Hogan and to an extent Nash. As someone else pointed out earlier I find it strange they would induct Hall individually before Nash and before the NWO as a group.
I just wonder if this has something to do with the fact Triple H is close to him re the Kliq, and perhaps people feeling sorry for him and Roberts because of their recent well publicised stories about their alcohol issues, rehab and the progress since then. Seems like being a recovering alcoholic is the ticket to HOF induction.
I mean tbh I view HOF with a pinch of salt, they're typical American pretentious garbage, not voted for by fans or journalists it's just who WWE think are worthy, I'd give the actual Pro Wrestling HOF more worth.
But to induct Hall over so many others who have achieved so much more is baffling. Heck even Goldbberg has a far more legitimate claim to being in the HOF than Hall, as does Bulldog, Nash even Lex Luger who I'm not really a fan of. Savage won't go in until they induct the entire Poffo family.
