RIPPA Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 Just gonna start the thread now since stuff has trickled out DDP (via PWI) is saying he is going in this year PWI is also saying the Rick Rude is also going in this year Now y'all can spend 3 months saying how no one is qualified to make the WWE Hall of Fame Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he should be in, but I fully understand all the arguments against him. I'd argue that DDP was the most important babyface of WCW's most profitable era. Sting was staring off into space from the rafters for a year, while DDP was putting on a bunch of great TV performances and getting the Diamond Cutter over as any finisher in history. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go2Sleep Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 The WWE HOF criteria are 1) Do people vaguely remember your name from anything tangentially related to wrestling? 2) Does Vince like you? The observer HOF I can see arguments over, but the WWE HOF is just a nice token gesture. I bet Chyna goes in this year too with Waltman inducting her. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It depends on if the 'E got rid of the only one deceased wrestler per ceremony rule. If Rude is going in, then Chyna won't be. It'll be interesting if they do the mass induction of historic wrestlers again. There are so many candidates they could choose from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt D Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 I could see Chyna being inducted as part of DX but not on her own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't forget if the family/estate wants the person inducted (Owen Hart for example). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
odessasteps Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 You could have an interesting Rude dvd given Vince now owns Watts, WCCW, Crockett/Graham/WCW. Just missing Memphis. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AxB Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 Kurt Angle. So he can be inducted into 2 Halls of Fame in Orlando. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zev Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 I'm thinking Vader gets inducted, Sting does the speech. King of Cable shout outs all night long. Within the next 7 years I think Ivory, Victoria, and Molly Holly all go in. I say Ivory gets the nod this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they have confirmed Vader's health prognosis then I think it is a lock Vader goes in this year Judging by Networking appearances only - Molly Holly would probably be their first choice with Ivory trailing as 2nd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
