mco543 Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 Tonight was amazing and absolutely exhausting. I can't imagine having half the strength that Connor's dad had during his speech. Also, there has never been an audience more excited and happy to see the Bushwhackers than tonight's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PetrolCB Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 What a great induction ceremony. My favorite being Zbyszko's. Absolutely great stuff from Larry. I love when people who are great public speakers, are at a complete loss when being honored. It really shows the magnitude of the situation.

lovchunky Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 Just for the record: Madusa is 51. I can't get over how good she looked/sounded. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlie M. Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 Madusa's speech was great, especially after that lame video package that reduced her career to a brief WWF run and the title belt deal. She shouted out the Dangerous F'n Alliance each by name. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonnyLaw Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 Funny that Heyman could be the last of the Alliance inducted. After Beautiful Bobby? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phantom Lord Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 Just for the record: Madusa is 51. I can't get over how good she looked/sounded. I was quite amused at her having to hold her top on each time she pulled something out of the trash can. Not sure if a backless two piece gown was a good idea, but damn she still looks great. If she wasnt making so much money doing Monster Jam, she probably could have a hell of a return to wrestling if she wanted. I could see a couple of good feuds with her with The Bella's, Nattie, and Paige. Reform Team Madness with Emma in place of Molly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
odessasteps Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 Since heyman is an active performer,i presume he is a few years away. But you could maybe see the MX going in next year or two. But that could just be wishful thinking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrisM Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 Is that Vince's mother who usually sits in the front row at the HOF ceremonies? Tonight, she was sitting next to Nikki Bella. I imagine she'd have to be at least in her 90's, since Vince is close to 70 himself. (spoiled for hugeness) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mco543 Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 With how few big deal headliners WWE has left, Sting, Rock, Triple H, Taker, NWO, and DX, Heyman could possibly headline his own class. It's going to be very interesting where they go in the future as far as headliners goes. I'm not sure if guys like Big Show or Kane who are winding down as active wrestlers could/would be used as headliners on their own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piranesi Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 I think that's the old lady that killed all those people on the titanic and then threw away enough money to feed all of Ireland. And John Cena's fucking chin. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryan Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 That woman looks nowhere near old enough to be Vince's mother, so I'm siding Ligerbusa's choice. I've been around a lot of 90+ year olds, they don't look like that. Or she has great genetics, but looking her up, it's definitely Betty Skaaland, you see her in other photos with Cena and Orton. WWE takes good care of her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Execproducer Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 Hall of Fame writeup has gone live. I'm quite proud of it. Won't get around to watching this until Monday night, but just reading the Connor part had me in tears. Nice job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Fresh Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 My favorite part was the story about Connor saying he couldn't hit Triple H because he'd easily break his jaw. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Fowler Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 Butch was amazing, Luke could barely keep up. But Medusa was definitely the speech of the night. And her husband getting a standing ovation and saluted by Mark Henry was the highlight of the highlight. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thee Reverend Axl Future Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 I noticed that Mr. McMahon was not mentioned, but that HHH was being profusely thanked as The Man. Michaels even said that he'll "get in touble for this" before telling his VKM story. Orders from Junior re. transition of (perceived) leadership, or just modesty? Savage should have been last but Hogan introing him was a shonda and Lanny's induction versifying was agonizing. Leave it to Bruno (bless him) to keep it kay fabe and dry as a bone. Zybysko's old man meanderings were, in turn, stupefying, amusing, endearing, heartfelt and then magical. I knew that the SHEEPHERDERS were going to rule. Johnny Ace was great. VKM doesn't own the footage of the wooden barbed wire cage match vs. The Fantastics? I love the HoF, RAF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hollywood Cibernetico Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 The Bushwhackers brought the entertainment. I wouldn't mind if WWE purposely inducted at least one completely nutty act/group per year. Also, I know I say this every year - but EVERYONE doesn't need to make a speech. Some people need to be kept to 15 minutes and nothing more. Something random that happened on the pre-show was Lawler addressing the rumors of Eva Marie hosting the show and for some reason no one would say Eva Marie's name. Not Cole, Lawler, or Maria. It was if they were talking about Benoit, just a very weird moment. This should be Lawler's last year, not sure why WWE chooses him to do this ever year.

thee Reverend Axl Future Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 You are correct, but it really was apparent with everyone putting over TripleHHH this year. That's been an edict from Vince forever. He doesn't want people to thank him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
