    I believe they were and didn’t elected. 

    I can't see there's a better case for them to go in as a trio since (in theory, anyway) voters can only take into account the brief run they had together in JCP from early 87 to September '88. You can't take the Brain Busters' WWF run into account since JJ wasn't managing them, and obviously you can't take any of Tully and Arn's singles careers, their tag teams with other partners, or any of JJ's decades long career as both a wrestler and a manager of other guys.

    They should all go back on the ballot as singles. Enough of their contemporaries have gone in now that it's freed up votes to get them in.

    7300. Identical to the 12/26/94 show above, which makes me think that was the actual date as they didn't have a post-Xmas show at MSG in 1994.

    Card (which... yeesh):

     

    Pretty ridiculous to be running a split crew at that point, although looking at the other card from that night it wouldn't have been that much better if they'd been running a single crew, with neither Bret or Shawn working.

    WWF @ London, Ontario - London Gardens - November 26, 1994
    Duke Droese defeated the Brooklyn Brawler
    Bob Holly fought the 1-2-3 Kid to a draw
    The Smoking Gunns defeated the Heavenly Bodies
    WWF Women's Champion Bull Nakano defeated Alundra Blayze
    Jim Neidhart defeated Doink the Clown
    Owen Hart defeated Adam Bomb
    Lex Luger defeated Tatanka

    Bully Ray with "Prime Time" Brian Lee, who I haven't seen do anything wrestling related for about two decades.

    Sam Houston, looking like a West Texas Redneck, and looking quite well all things considered.

     

    Many other picture from the event can be found here.

    There's a lot about the Hall of Fame that doesn't make sense and the whole situation with tag teams is one of them. Dave's only recently started to say that guys can get in twice through being in a tag team and a singles, or through being in two tag teams, and there's plenty of tag teams made up of two HOF guys that realistically should have gone in in the inaugural class but didn't - Ray Stevens should be in thrice over between  his singles career, team with Patterson and team with Bockwinkel. Stan Lane should also be in twice for being in the Fabs and the Midnights. I don't think Tully and Arn as a team are HOF worthy just because of how briefly they teamed but they are both HOF worthy in their own right.
