TPWW 1ST Annual HOF Inductions
Hey all,


The results are in and we have our very first TPWW Hall of Fame inductions. First, I want to thank everyone who participated in this event. From the committee to all the TPWW posters. It was great to see so many of you voting. Based on your great showing, I will definately continue this in the future. Before I get to the Inductions, I want to quickly go over how we got our First Seven HOF Members

1) Those who recicved around 25% of the votes or more on TPWW automatically went in

2) Those who recieved more then half of committee nominations and fell in the top 3 of the TPWW votes went in.

3) At least two Top Level and Mid Level guys were to be selected. **Note, the Committee voted on the Final Mid Card spot between Tully and Ted.


With that said, let's begin the First Seven Inductions into the TPWW Hall of Fame






Mr Perfect, Curt Hennig





Recieving more then half the comittee votes and being voted #1 on the TPWW Mid Card Level gave Mr. Perfect a ticket into the Hall. One of the greatest technical wreslters to ever step foot in a ring, Curt was one hell of an athlete. Probably one of the best bumpers in wrestling history. His 360 bump will forever be remembered. To me, Mr Perfect is synanamous with the Intercontinental Title and he'll always be the first person I think of when that belt is mentioned. His entrance, from the theme music to the throwing of the towel to the spitting of the gum will never be duplicated. The smile and the golden locks will never be forgotten/ Curt was truly one of a kind and the TPWW Hall of Fame just took it's first step towards perfection.






Bobby Heenan








What can I say about this man? Most would tell you he's the greatest manager of all-time. Well, I can't argue there. Running away with the Managers vote, Bobby Heenan is our 2nd inductee into the Hall. Bobby Heenan began his career not that of a manager, but as a wrestler. He was decent in the ring, but excelled on the mic. Realizing this, he was made into a manager for various talent and on some occasions was more popular then the talent themselves. You want to turn heel or get heat? Well that was easy in the 80's; just allign yourself with Bobby Heenan. He's the blueprint for the wrestling manager. A manager that you really thought was "managing" his clients. And when he wasn't managing, he was busy being what some call the greatest color commentator every. With his quick wit, classic one liners and the constant bickering with Monsoon, Bobby Heenan belongs in a place slightly above greatness.






The Road Warriors



Right along with Heenan, the Road Warriors also dominated thier category; the tag teams. It's very fitting though as Hawk and Animal brutalized and dominated thier opponents for a long period. Hawk and Animal were real bad asses and people loved that about them. They came and they beat the shit out of thier opponents. And they did with a lot of flair and color. How could you not like these guys? Who could ever forget the face paint and shoulder spikes? They talked with attitude and never backed down from a fight. The Road Warriors may have been tried to be duplicated at times, but they were never surpassed. Multiple Tag Team Champions with multiple companies, Hawk and Animal enter the Hall.








Steve Austin







The man most say put the WWF back on the map in the late 90's and propelled the WWF to uncharted heights. The WWF caught lightning in a bottle when Austin became a Stone Cold Rattle snake. One of the most popular, if not the most popular, wrestlers of all-time. Austin will leave behind a legacy we may never see again. At one point he was one of the greatest technical wrestlers in the industry. but it was his own personality that made him a superstar. Austin provided the fans with classic matches, promos, catch phraes and one fingered salutes for a long haul. Austin was a man blue collared America could relate to. His was the Corproate ass kicker. Proclaimed by many to be the greatest of all-time, Stone Cold Steve Austin breaks the glass one more time and walks straight into the Hall.







Ted Dibiase





Wrestlings first and only Million Dollar Man. Ted Dibiase will forever be remembered as one of the greatest heels to step into the ring. The WWF's go to guy to carry a lot of the main event matches in the late 80's. He was one hell of a worker and made it look easy. Although he never captured the WWF Title, Dibiase captured numerous Titles over the course of his career. Dibiase played his Million Dollar Man character to a tilt and people bought into it everywhere he went. He wrestled just as good as he played his character. Ted could work anybody and make them look good. Dibiase paved the way for a lot of babyfaces who were looking to break through. Helping so many wrestlers along the way is what I'll always rememember Ted for. It's an honor to put him in with the first wave.






Ric Flair






He's done it all and he's been a symbol of excellence for decades. The Nature Boy doesn't really need me to write something up about him. Most of you on here probably assumed he would be going in, right? A 16 Time World Champion, member of the Four Horsemen, one of the greatest interviews in the business and the guy some say single handedly made the NWA what is was in the 80's. Ric Flair wrestled all styles and sizes and could wrestle for hours if needed. He was the face of the NWA/WCW for the longest time and drew money for years. Never a dull moment when the Naitch was in the ring or on the mic. Let's give one more WOOOOOOOO as Ric Flair enters the Hall.







Vince McMahon Jr






Would wrestling be where it is today without Vince McMahon Jr? Maybe or Maybe not. But I think we can all agree that Vinnie Mac is the most instrumental figure in taking wrestling into the main stream. Love the guy or hate him, you have to respect him for what he has done. Vince McMahon took wrestling down paths it had never seen before. McMahon took the WWF and made wrestling into something bigger and more colorful then most had ever witnessed. He added known celebrities, took it to huge arenas and made it a spectacle that everyone just had to see. I believe as time passes and we look back in 40 years at professional wrestling, Vince McMahon Jr will go down as the most influential face the sport had ever seen and ever known. With that I welcome Vinny Mac into the Hall of Fame.[/QUOTE]

Golden Era Inductions
Golden Era Inductions



While putting together the TPWW Hall of Fame and gathering ideas from the committee members, we decided to put together a sort of Golden Era Section. This is a section that will honor those who may have been forgotten or may have never been heard of, but were important and influencial to wrestling history. Every 6 months, 2 Golden Era Inductions will be selected by the committee members. With that being said, I give you the overwelming selections for the first 2 Golden Era Hall of Famers.







Gorgeous George



The Human Orchid's legacy on professional wrestling cannot be taken lightly. George was the first guy to really bring a sense of character and theatrics to the sqaured circle. When everyone else was all about the technical aspect of wrestling, George relied on charisma, personality, expressions and mannerisms to get himself over with the crowd. And over he got. Gorgeous George became a self obsessed glamour king and made audiences everywhere despise him. George breathed new life into professional wrestling and took it places it had never been before. George's style was very instrumental in future wrestling superstars and he paved the way for the characters and gimmicks seen in professional wrestling these days. It's a pleasure to induct George as the first member of the Golden Era.




Lou Thesz




The Wrestlers wrestler. Lou Thesz is considered by many to be the greatest wrestling champion that ever existed. Lou won dozens of championships throughout his long and stellar career and was a favorite among wrestling fans. He was charming, heroic and a fighter. Lou never backed down from any fight and in an era where real wreslting shoots existed, Lou held his own. As an honerable and knowlegeable champion, Lou gained the respect of that of his peers and the wrestling community as a whole. He was holder of many titles, a teacher to many students and a true legend of the squared circle.

What is with EVERYONE leaving Tovo out of shit. King of the Forum, King of the Wrestling Forum, HoF Induction Committee...THIS IS A FUCKING CONSPIRACY AND I DO NOT LIKE IT!

Also, Tully was royally fucked over/screwed like Lita.

Tully's a great one, but not a first-ballot HOFer. Probably not even a second-ballot, considering the depth of legends that didn't make it in this time. Possibly third or fourth ballot, but to say that he got screwed is insane. There's nobody who made it that Tully was better than. As a wrestler, yeah, but this is just about the perfect first class of inductees.

Hogan and Andre are pretty conspicuous by their absences, but they'll head the second class.

You know what my problem with this Hall of Fame is, it's not at all a reflection on TPWW. Seriously. Thesz, George, even McMahon...how does that reflect TPWW's taste? This Hall of Fame is basically a copy and paste of other Hall of Fames. So this concept that Tully doesn't belong because he's not as historically important, fuck that noise, he's probably one of the highest praised people on TPWW, which is what this is supposed to reflect.

Hogan will probably never make it because most people here HATE him. There are plenty of other Hall of Fames to induct Hogan on historical significance, let this be our place, to put people who WE like in. Personally I think this entire thing is almost taking itself too seriously, we shouldn't have had a "Golden Year" category, we should have had a "Inside Joke" category with Sean O'Haire in a cage, Khali's speeches, hell even Boogen or something.

Honestly, I'm kind of shocked by the results, and disappointed by them. The thing about TPWW that makes us special from all other wrestling fan bases is out unique taste, our general love of things other people don't care about, and our collective refusal to be molded into the stereotypical internet wrestling fan...this Hall of Fame disgraces all of that.

Thank you and goodnight.

yea, Tully is so beloved that he got 3rd in the Mid guy voting and got creamed when he went one on one with Dibiase. lol, really beloved by TPWW. god, shut the fuck up. you're bitching is getting annoying these days.

Thesz and George are not part of the TPWW Hall Of Fame. They are inductions from the comittee that most agreed should be included as another part of the Hall.

McMahon blew away everyone in his category via TPWW's votes. How does not not reflect TPWW taste?

and what the hell are you even on about with your last paragraph? who are you grouping into your "TPWW?" Cause to me TPWW has spoken here. Check the voting. Most polls had over 80 votes. That's a hell of a lot of opinions from here.

Seems like your the only person on TPWW bitching about this. maybe it's not TPWW that's off here, maybe it' just you.

Because, I believe, people voted on who they viewed as historically important, and not on personal taste. How many people around here have wished death on McMahon recently? I know he's historically important as fuck, which is obvious, but he's not well liked at TPWW. THAT'S what I'm talking about. I think people took this idea of Hall of Fame too seriously, I would have rather seen people argue over personal markish liking instead of who belongs in a Hall of Fame.

99% of TPWW has never even seen Thesz or George, so why on god's green earth should they have been put in the Hall? I made this exact point to you in PMs during the voting, which I was then left out of...by you...surprise surprise...

Loosey, you don't like what I have to say, ok. I say more shit around here that gets people pissed off before noon than most people say in a year. Haven't you picked up on that yet? I voice my opinion, and unless I was mistaken, I thought that was the purpose of a forum...I could be mistaken...

As a wrestler, yeah, but this is just about the perfect first class of inductees.

Hogan and Andre are pretty conspicuous by their absences, but they'll head the second class.
Actually guys like DiBiase and Hennig shouldn't be 1st ballots either, but I digress.

Well, that's probably true, as well. But with the "second-tier" category, they were shoo-ins.

Even with the second tier, they defiantely weren't 1st ballot material. Second ballot maybe, defiantely not first as there are tons of more deserving people.

I think people took this idea of Hall of Fame too seriously, I would have rather seen people argue over personal markish liking instead of who belongs in a Hall of Fame.

99% of TPWW has never even seen Thesz or George, so why on god's green earth should they have been put in the Hall? I made this exact point to you in PMs during the voting, which I was then left out of...by you...surprise surprise...

Loosey, you don't like what I have to say, ok. I say more shit around here that gets people pissed off before noon than most people say in a year. Haven't you picked up on that yet? I voice my opinion, and unless I was mistaken, I thought that was the purpose of a forum...I could be mistaken...
Is this a popularity contest? Nope. 99% of TPWW hasn't seen Thesz or George? And? What's your point? I never saw Issac Newton or Thomas Edison either so I guess I should immediately forget everything they did for the world because they are from my era. You don't have a clue what you are on about. Voice your opinion if you want but your opinion fucking sucks. Sorry but it does. Be a killjoy elsewhere. So in short - fuck off.

We put Ric Flair in the Hall Of Fame before the WWE did, and we didn't play Leave The Memories Alone 50,000 times in the process.

When's round two? As a priveliged committee member I think I'll be exercising my opinion that Gorilla Monsoon should be heading into the TPWW Hall Of Fame next time round.
