JonnyLaw Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 Chyna being heavily featured in Ivory’s video felt like they’re slowly bringing up Chyna more and more so it will be less “controversial” when they do put her in the HOF in a year or two.

Sky Blue Sam Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 I've never understood the hubbub about Chyna getting in. For me the issue has never been that she made some porn films, so much as the content of the films. If I'm a petty millionaire who runs a vanity Hall of Fame for my company, and a disgruntled ex-employee makes a porn film featuring versions of me, my daughter and my son-in-law, then I'm probably going to put Jeff Jarrett, Tekno Team 2000 and Kwang into my HoF before Chyna.

Yup - in fact the WWE's Youtube channel uploaded some clips years ago when they inducted him into the HOF (The two I quickly found are a battle royal he won and a match against David Schultz) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIPPA Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 Always amused when they use clips of interviews from like 5 years ago. Thank God that version of Xavier Woods didn't get over Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Emmy for Mad About You, Tony for Kinky Boots, Grammy for the Kinky Boots Broadway soundtrack and Best New Artist) No joke, I think she's vastly underrated, both in the wrestling bubble way (she was the rock in the Rock N Wrestling era dammit) and in pop culture in general. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She was a huge part of getting Randy Savage over in the WWF and a big part of the Wrestlemania V main event. That is more than enough for the WWE HOF. Which does not factor in a decent run as a manager during the WCW boom period. She has a better case than some of the women currently in the WWE Hall like Jackie and Beth Phoenix. She was a more vital part of the TV in her era than some of the men in the Hall. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brandon-E Posted February 14, 2018 Share Posted February 14, 2018 The fact that The Godfather of all people entered the WWE HOF before Christian is just bizarre to me. I can see why DDP got in before Christian though. Correct me if I'm wrong but I think DDP during his peak was more over than Christian. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(BP) Posted February 14, 2018 Share Posted February 14, 2018 Vince thinks Christian was an ugly utility version of Edge. He had a fantastic run as champ in WWECW, but nobody except us cares about that. I'd almost see E&C going in together before Christian gets his.

Captain Kronos Posted February 14, 2018 Share Posted February 14, 2018 I know I would prefer a Christian match to an Edge match, as a rule. But he wasn't flashy like Edge, and he didn't look as "cool". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Fowler Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 I love Christian, but, yeah, DDP was way the fuck more over than him peak vs peak. Christian will go in either when they have a hole to fill or when they bring Mania back to Toronto. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt D Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 Christian's WWE peak (let's say a six month period) was more over than DDP's WWE peak. It's not Page's fault he put over Sara Undertaker, but there you go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MonteCarl Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 Why do people still stick to this idea that it is a WWE Only HoF? It is a HoF created by Vince and WWE, for sure, but they are clearly reaching for it to be an all encompassing Pro-Wrestling Hall of Fame. They have inducted many guys who never even wrestled with WWE, and many more who may have had a cup of coffee with WWE but obviously made their names and built their HoF careers in other companies. That said, DDP's run in WCW was HoF-worthy. He was #2 face in the #1 company during the hottest run wrestling has ever had in the US, and he's one of a very few guys who would be considered "home grown WCW superstars". His WWE run was pathetic and WWE botched him far worse than WCW botched Bret Hart. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt D Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 It's not a WWE Only HoF but it's definitely a Vince McMahon's Vision of Pro Wrestling HoF, just like the WON HoF is basically Dave's vision of wrestling. DDP got in for Yoga as much as anything else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
