MISSING FROM THE WWE HALL OF FAME

Being more similar to the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame than that of a professional sports Hall Of Fame, like that of baseball in good old Cooperstown. Things like politics, popularity, are amongst the things that are weighed in on during the selection process. Not exactly sure mind you, but all these things seem to be involved when looking at past inductions and the snubs that occur every year.

Here are a list of wrestlers, managers and celebrities that have yet to be inducted into what has become the illustrious WWE Hall Of Fame...

"Macho Man" Randy Savage

Similar to the Sting rumors and speculation that occurs this time of year, Macho Man's right up there with Hall Of Fame whispers. Reasons for why the late legend range from him wanting his family (The Poffo's) to all be inducted, similar to that of the Von Erich family, to the ever popular, Vince won't induct Savage because Randy had relations with Stephanie McMahon during his WWE tenure. With Macho Man having passed away and his brother and the McMahons staying tight lipped on the situation, we may never know why. As outlandish as the Stephanie thing may seem, the fact that Vince is well known for "sucking it up" in the name of business, it isn't so far fetched, however with how proud of a man that Randy was, the wanting the Poffo family to be inducted seems reasonable as well. Fans don't care, we just want it done. Ooooooooh Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! Dig It!!

Owen Hart

I've read that it is the late wrestler's wife who has doesn't want this or anything to do with wrestling. Nobody can blame her with the way that Owen lost his life, the circumstances surrounding that situation. It could however be nice ending to all of this, allowing her and Owen's fans to fully move on. There is good news as the WWE Network will have Owen's WWE career on display, with of course Over The Edge being edited out of respect for the late wrestler and his family. Perhaps one day this induction will happen. Bret will do the honors of course.

Enhancement Wing

Up until the Monday Night Wars begun really, these wrestlers were not only key to developing and debuting talent, they were at times just as known as the people they were putting over. The Rock's catchphrase "Jabroni" sort of made them a pun, but let's not forget their importance in the past. Sean "X-Pac/Syxx/123 Kid" Waltman began or appeared to begin as one in the WWE. Don't forget names like "Iron Mike" Sharpe, or *pats self on the back* Barry Horowitz. Even the Hardys were an enhancement tag team before stepping up to non-Jabroni status.

Chris Benoit

Despite how great he was in that squared circle, the decision to not induct him makes complete and total sense with how things occurred. Which is sad, as again he was a great wrestler who had legendary matches with the likes of Jericho, Booker T, list goes on, but don't forget about his matches with Olympic gold medalist, Kurt Angle. If things were different, imagine the match(es) the late wrestler would have had with todays superstars in both WWE and TNA. Names like Daniel Bryan, CM Punk, AJ Styles, Samoa Joe, etc. And we will be able to see past action involving Benoit on the upcoming WWE Network.

Scott Hall

Hey yo! Now it is possible, and likely that the WWE has been waiting for Razor Ramon to clean up and get healthy, and stay clean. Which from what I have seen has been the case with everyone's favorite, Bad Guy. It was speculated that Scott skipped out on being with Shawn Michaels for his induction, as to avoid any old demons knocking him of the wagon, but he appears to be doing well so it may just be a matter of time. If Wrestlemania takes place in Atlanta  again in the future, would love to see a "n.W.o" theme with Hall, Kevin Nash and Sean Waltman all going in.

Mr. T

I was surprised when I read that he wasn't already in, as I assumed he perhaps was inducted during the days when the HOF wasn't as big of a deal as it is today. He was, for most of us, the first celebrity to step between the ropes and be in the match. First in the main event of the innaugrial Wrestlemania teaming with Hulk Hogan, and then in a Boxing turned Wrestling match with the legendary Rowdy Roddy Piper. I heard this has been on his end by declining the induction, but I pity the fool who doesn't think he should be in there.

Tazz

If there was anybody who transitioned from ECW to WWE the best, it was Tazz. Some may say Rob Van Dam, but Taz was allowed to speak more, and was even able to extend his career behind the announce table. It may be due to his tenure at TNA obviously, but the moment he is off that sinker, it is time to have an ECW themed Hall Of Fame. It isn't as often as it used to, but there are still "ECW" chants at times. Tazz, Paul Heyman, The Dudleys (when Bully/Bubba Ray is done in TNA) and RVD (when he's finished wrestling) all deserve a spot. Any area would work, but Philly or New York would be quite the rowdy Hall Of Fame crowd to hear. The Human Suplex Machine deserves to make the HOF just another victim.

Eric Bischoff

Love him or hate him, Easy E' gave us a really good WCW for a long time. There may have been some old school fans at that time who didn't like things, but the ratings and money didn't translate that. Bischoff took WCW and went head to head with Vince McMahon and WWE, and was winning and almost put them out of business. This of course, turned into the WWE and the talent raising their games even higher for not just the comeback, but the purchasing of WCW. Some of the greatest moments in pro wrestling came from Eric Bischoff's WCW (Hogan and n.W.o., Goldberg and his streak, etc). He may have to be completly done with wrestling before this ever happens, but with past promoters and wrestlers have proven Vince will induct you if it is good for business. I think this would be. the case.

Vince Russo

I AM JOKING!!!! RELAX!!!! Laughter is good for the soul ahahahaha

Vince McMahon

He isn't a young man, even though he may outlive us all. However, in any case, it would be great to see Vinnie Mac break down and be genuinely humble, but more importantly, it would be great to see him thank all the wrestlers who sacrificed so much to help his company grow and dominate. It would be interesting to see who he would name drop in doing so. One would think 'Taker would be, given his loyalty through the "War". Austin for the money. His father was inducted in the 1996 Hall Of Fame ceremony.

Wrestling Families

I have read there is talks of the WWE inducting "matches". Which I am not quite sure is good, with some matches being great matches but then some matches were simply hyped up matches (ie Hulk/Andre at Mania III). Factions is a good way to continue on going, however, I think that perhaps they should look at inducting wrestling families first. We have the Von Erich Family in there, and numerous members from wrestling families in there, why not have that be a new "wing"? Families like the Hart's, Vochon's, Poffo's, Windham-Rotunda's, Armstrong's (Road Dogg's family), amongst others. The first induction really should be the Anoa'i-Maivia family, not only huge, but several current and future Hall Of Famers are amongst them.


Goldberg, Lex Luger, and a long list of others deserve a spot, and then there are those still in "the game" who it will become a matter of when, or "why not's" every year they don't. There is Sting, but he may be close to achieving this if reports are correct.

Stay Nerdy!
