olythegreat89 Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 Since WM is in the Northeast which was pretty much ECW country, why not induct Paul Hayman? He's from New York and still with the company. He's worked in and with almost every territory over the last 30 years. And he ran one of the most revolutionary and influential promotions in wrestling history. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Up above, Monsoon and Heenan would be telling us how the Brawler trained at the "Terry Garvin School of Self-Defense". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Fowler Posted February 18, 2019 Author Share Posted February 18, 2019 So Shawn and Bret both get their second induction this year? Interesting. Also good way to get Chyna in. Edit: I assume AEW is either letting Billy do this, or his agent contract lets him take outside bookings? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AxB Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 And then next year, the Rockers and Evolution both get inducted, putting Flair and Michaels on three rings whilst Hunter is level with Bret on two. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Niners Fan in CT Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 Well I wasn't going to go anyway. D-X is probably my least favorite stable of all time. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supremebve Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 As someone who's peak fandom was pretty much at the same time as peak DX, I'll never understand why that stable seems to be remembered so fondly. They were corny to me as a teenager, and it got worse as the years passed. I get why they're in the hall of fame, based on who's in charge, but I remember them being annoying more often than they were good. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Overly Critical Man Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 The Union was awesome because their theme was just a remix of the Nation’s theme. With that being said, The Nation should be in the hall of fame. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember a couple times watching Raw with my parents in the room during some of their more raunchy skits and immediately switching to Nitro. Both they and the NWO would totally kill large portions of the shows with overly long in ring segments, but the NWO segments were just boring as opposed to cringe-worthy.

The Great ML Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 DX from its inception to the buildup of WM 14 to the night after with Xpac showing up was fantastic...the rest was garbage. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MonteCarl Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 If/when the nWo goes in the HoF, I know it will likely only be the Hall/Nash/Hogan version, but I think an argument could be made to include Waltman in that group as well. Him jumping to WCW/nWo as Syxx really helped solidify the nWo in it's early stages. And then another argument could also be made for Sean Waltman going in on his own. X-Pac a three time HoF'er? Who'da thunk it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could argue that there are shittier stables from a talent perspective but no stable took up more air time and offered up poor toilet humor quite like D-X. Also, their return in 2006 is something I try to believe never happened. Those were some dark days. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only good part of the 2006 version was Michaels superkicking random people backstage. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
