I’m going to assume Dave Meltzer was high when he made up this story. Jeff walked out of a match and left his coworkers high and dry without an explanation. WWE isn’t under his thumb because they’re afraid of the all-mighty Hardy Boys teaming up in AEW, lol. They’ve worked elsewhere before. They’re their own worst enemies. They’re even older now than they were in 2017.

So let me get this straight, they fired him because he wouldn't go to rehab, but then turn around and want to induct him into the Hall of Fame, and the only source for this information is Dave Meltzer come on

lol he showed up at the GCW hammerstein show wearing a vinny mac mask during a match, and then proceeded to talk shit about everyone on the card from his lonely merch table after the show.

Well, apparently they fired him under suspicion he needed rehab. Jeff Hardy just walked out of a main event…just because. So the egg is on their face for some reason. That’s why they want him back.

Vince inducted Austin IIRC.

If it's going to be a wrestler, there are a lot of high profile guys who could induct Taker based on the quality feuds he had.

It'd break a lot of "tv stuff" - but how about Lesnar does it - the breaker of the streak. He can put Taker over and talk about all that, blah blah blah.

I think Kane would induct Taker, makes the most sense as I can't really imagine anyone other than Paul Bearer (RIP)... well maybe Bruce Prichard but I doubt that would have the most meaning for Taker.
That's a really tough question when you think about it. Who is the right person to induct The Undertaker in the WWE HOF. You're looking for a legend, someone Taker has history with and really should be close friends with. So I think Kane is the guy for the job. |

2nd Pick for Taker would be Austin, just because of the star name, they are friends and it's in Texas. Makes some sense and is a good prediction I think.

HHH maybe?
I don't think that they're great friends or anything but they seem to have a ton of respect for each other and have worked together quite a bit over the last 20+ years. They do seem to have become somewhat close in terms of helping or talking about career and some personal things over the years too, especially in the last 5-10 years since they've both become limited or special appearance wrestlers. Is HHH healthy enough to want to appear or even do it though? |

Taker should be inducted by a hologram of Paul Bearer speaking from the other side of the veil.

It's a bit surprising considering Ray Rougeau was one of the French commentators until last year. I know Jacques is a pain in the ass and rubs people the wrong way but still. Jacques Rougeau giving a Hall of Fame speech is something I need in my life.

Yeah that's one of those weird cases where if Ray had the success Jacques had he would have been inducted a decade ago easy. They probably would not want to JUST induct Jacques as a Rougeau Brother, since The Mountie and The Quebecers were much more successful.

I think I knew Ray was a commentator for them, but it’s still kind of weird to think about him being involved in the WWE very, very recently.
