Demolition will never be inducted. It kills me to type that.

And for the record, besides being trained in the Dungeon, Benoit also was a student, and graduated from NJPW's Dojo. And I don't think where he was trained really matters, as I don't think I would even say Bret and Benoit wrestle the same way. So comparing Bret's style with Angle and Benoit's may be a little fetched.

its not a little fetched. if you watch all the great technical wrestlers, they adapt their style with their opponent. when hart vs benoit happened in wcw it was an awesome match and brett adapted to benoits style. men like benoit give 110% everytime BUT if they have a match with a guy who can't wrestle(insert musclehead here) it limits their offense considerably. a guy has to be able to sell the other guys moves. so, don't blame benoit for being a chop, chop, german suplex wrestler. look at the man he is wrestling then you will understand that benoit cant do anything other than those moves because his opponent can't sell them. it also depends on who is calling the match.

I'd like to see Jim Ross get in there. Hey, he holds a pinfall victory over Triple H, and if he's not going to come back to TV they may as well use this to give the fans a proper good-bye.
As much as I make fun of him I loved hearing him on Raw. He always made a match sound better than it really was.
