Tiger mask, Giant Baba, Jumbo Tsuruta, aqnd years from now, mutoh, are the only ones I see making it into the hall of fame. That's it, no one else.
And that's not from a "oh this guy deserves it" standpoint, it's from a wwe standpoint. |

I love how DLH is suck a smark.
Chono has a GREAT RUN IN WCW? LOL He was on TV like less than 10 times and never got over in the US. Muta has a good run with String in 89, hardly GREAT. You guys could convince yourselves of anything. |

Only way they go in is if Wrestlemania goes to Japan.

That's right. I almost forgot about them. They would definitely be it too, as they were the WWF Women's Tag Team Champions, which gives me another idea: bring back the Women's Tag Team titles, so the "divas" can learn tag team wrestling, as well as the guys.

I think Liger is more likely to go in then some of the guys mentioned here just because he was never in the WWE and was thus never turned into a comedy act, a perpetual mid-carder, etc. I mean, there have been a lot of Japanese greats, where Junior Heavyweights are treated with respect, that have translated into "mid-carder fodder" in the States. Ultimo Dragon should go in just for his abilities and how he has effected cruiserweight wrestling -- but what WWE clips are they going to show of him? Him slipping or drinking a cup of coffee in the back before his Velocity match?
Liger can be promoted as a Japanese great who plied his craft in a million dollar corporation, without the WWE showing him getting pinned by a big American guy in two minutes. So yes, I do think Liger has a great shot at being in the Hall of Fame. If that happens, I can see Liger also signing on for video games, and even being given a few appearances in the ring. Not a full-time return, but a few matches the next time the WWE goes to Japan. On RAW he can team with Yoshi Tatsu to beat a heel tag team, and on SmackDown! he can go over Chavo Guerrero, as the commentators talk about how great he is. |

Still think Tiger Mask makes a lot more sense than Liger.

If they induct the Dynamite kid i can see them putting Tiger Mask in at the same time.

I think it depends how they induct them, if its as the Bulldogs or as singles guys, but then they've stopped trying to link all the inductess together like they did in the past and Dynamite might be a touchy subject anyway with how his career ended. They seem to put it across more as a wrestling HOF then simply the WWE's HOF, so i think guys like Tiger Mask & Liger could get in at some point in the same way Inoki, Gagne, the Sheik etc. got in.
