Feel like Undertaker is headlining in Texas, surely.

That stupid class action lawsuit has so many names on it. I wonder if the company will ever say "fuck it" and put in long overdue names like Demolition.

With WWE willing to do some stuff with Impact.......D'Lo Brown could go in as the token beloved midcarder from yesteryear (and, from the company's standpoint, the "token black" inductee).

Side note: the WWE has run out of old dead black wrestlers to induct in its Legacy Wing. This was evident when friggen Brickhouse Brown got in last year

I’m fairly certain Sylvain Grenier was a plaintiff on that concussion lawsuit against WWE. That’s another reason I found his re-hiring by the WWE to be so fucking weird, because I think he’s the only person that was on there that WWE has mended bridges with, unless I’m overlooking someone else.
So we can get Sylvain Grenier as an agent and not Demolition into the WWE Hall of Fame? |

The only thing holding a guy like Taker back is if he wants to go in this year. If he’s not feeling “old enough” yet, he might want them to wait a few years.

Demolition was blackballed long before any of the recent class action lawsuits. Specifically Ax (Bill Eadie), as he and WWE have had legal.action against each other going back to the early 90's. Barry Darsow seems like he is on good terms with WWE, just not as Smash.

Yeah, Eadie was apparently promised an agent role or something that didn't happen

I was trying to think of black wrestlers that are still alive the WWE could put in. You’ve got D’Lo Brown, 2 Cold Scorpio and who else is there? I may have missed someone really obvious. Made me think of something though:
What if Shelton Benjamin and Charlie Haas go in together? I think Haas lives in Texas. Michelle McCool and/or Layla could be the women’s inductions. Hey, there’s another POC. Could just see them officially confirming Batista goes in. And/or maybe Kane if he wants to take a trip and hang out with Taker. |

Ahmed Johnson is still alive. Induct him as Big T though. It’s about time Papa Shango went in. They could do a 3 Faces of Foley Rumble type deal and also induct Kama The Ultimate Fighting Machine and The Goodfather too. It’d make Charles Wright the first ever 4 time inductee but I can’t see many arguments against that being totally justified.

i can pretend i don't give a rat's patoot about no damn imaginary hall of fame, but for them to put kid rock in and not vader, that's darn close to unnerving!

I thought for sure he had, but it turns out he hasn’t. He’s from Texas too, so that’s pretty perfect.
* Batista * Sid Vicious (cannot believe he’s not in) * Michelle McCool * Slick If they’re going to do Rey Mysterio family drama stuff down the line, maybe it makes sense to put in someone like Rey, Snr? I can still see Kane going in. He’s not first ballot, but I can just see it being used to bulk out the class. That leaves the tag team slot open. As well as a posthumous slot. I don’t know why, I just don’t see it being Demolition. They’ve stuck to their guns on that. I believe Antonino Rocca has already gone in, but maybe they put him and Miguel Perez in as a tag team? Or Rocky Johnson & Tony Atlas. Something like that. |

I had a weird feeling when Kane was mentioned earlier and I couldn’t put my finger on it. It’s because he was inducted less than a year ago

I completely forgot that they even did a HOF class last year. Kinda shitty really since as far as I can tell, the speeches for the 2020 + 2021 HOF classes were done in front of a mostly empty arena. Their only real HOF "moment" was getting acknowledged at Mania.
I'd have probably skipped doing a 2021 class and just did 2020 + 2022 this year as actual events. |

Observer is reporting that WWE wanted to put Jeff Hardy in this year. Jeff said no.
I'm taking the super low road here and gonna assume he was high when they asked him. |
