    Ok so we've
    The Dead guy - Macho
    The Celebrity - Arnie
    The turnaround story - Scott Hall or DDP???????
    The Midcard guy - Rick Martel or Tito santana (are either of them already in!!)
    The female - no idea at all....
    The non WWE guy(s) - not a clue
    The non wrestler guy/ manager/ Valet - Good oul JR (he could be in there already!!)

    Thats generally the break down on things isn't it???


  • Registered Users Posts: 29,084 ✭✭✭✭CastorTroy


    JR is in. And Scott Hall went in as Razor Ramon.

    Is Alundra Blayze in yet? Or still trouble over what she did on WCW?

    Sting and maybe Dudley Boyz?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,333 ✭✭✭brinty


    Cheers Castor
    wasn't sure who is or isn't already in there..
    Good call on the Dudleyz, there's generally a tag team goes in to and with Bubba Ray back last night could be a signpost re the Dudleys with Sting surely being the non WWE guy going in..


  • Registered Users Posts: 60,636 ✭✭✭✭Agent Coulson


    Just about to post the same about the Dudley Boyz being the tag team.


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,301 ✭✭✭✭gerrybbadd


    So.... Rikishi is going in. Mixed thoughts on this one.

    .
    WWE is planning to induct former AWA World champion Larry Zbyszko into the 2015 WWE Hall of Fame, PWInsider.com has learned.
    Zbyszko originally trained under Bruno Sammartino and appeared as his protege, before famously turning heel on Sammartino, leading to a feud that culminated with a steel cage bout at Shea Stadium in New York City.

    In the years that followed, Zbyszko had runs in the AWA, the NWA and WCW, eventually shifting over to an announcer utilizing his "Living Legend" moniker.

    Zbyszko released an autobiography in 2008, has appeared at WWE Wrestlemania AXXESS events in recent years and is still a regular at all the NXT tapings in Orlando, Florida.

    He needs to have a dance with Too Cool on stage


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,478 ✭✭✭brianregan09


    Zbysko definitley deserves to go in


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,491 ✭✭✭thebostoncrab


    Delighted for Zbysko, provided it's true. He is a big name that should have already been included years ago.

    Seemingly Beth Phoenix will be the token female inductee. An excuse to wheel out Edge to induct her possibly.

    Jesus. Beth "Wet Week" Phoenix. Another slap in the face for Chyna there so

    Larry Z should be a great speech.

    Other women much deserve it more.i would like to see Jacqueline go in


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,342 ✭✭✭Whosthis


    I'd be surprised if they don't induct Sting this year. Can't see them going with a deceased star attraction. I'd like to see Vader go in too. Just had a look through the HOF there and I think the two glaring omissions that remain after Macho are Rude and The Bulldog. Hopefully they'll both get their spots in the coming years.

    Why's it an excuse to wheel out Edge?? Or am I being stupid? Are they an item...
    She's no place in the HoF before Ms Elizabeth (don't think she's in yet)

    When I saw this on Raw, I was extremely happy. He always brought a smile to my face when he was on-screen.

    Aye definitely, I also want to see one more stink-face.

    PWInsider.com has confirmed that Kevin Nash will be inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame next month. The current plan is for Shawn Michaels to do the honor.

    WWE is teasing that a tag team will be announced this Monday. The word we are hearing is that the team will be The Bushwhackers, Butch Miller and Luke Williams, who had a nice run in the late 1980s and early 1990s for the company after runs in Stampede, the NWA and Mid-South as the Sheepherders.

    We have also heard that plans to induct Larry Zbszyko will likely be postponed this year after final decisions were made on the class of 2015.

    Nash's speech will be really good and The Bushwackers music is class. Hope everyone in the theater does the dance.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,333 ✭✭✭brinty


    The bushwhackers were my favourite tag team as a kid... Wouldbe brilliant to see them in the HoF

    Surely Macho Man should be the headliner?


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,641 ✭✭✭paconnors


    The Bushwhackers are Inducted

    Nice to see them been recognised, even though I don't think they ever won the tag team belts. But were always great at getting the crowd going.

    Well done to both Luke and Butch.

    According to PWInsider, WWE is going to announce Tatsumi “The Dragon” Fujinami as a member of the 2015 WWE Hall of Fame class. The announcement is expected to be made in Japan.

    Fujinami worked in New Japan Pro Wrestling from 1972 to 2006 and won the NWA World Heavyweight Title from Ric Flair in 1990, becoming the first man to hold the NWA and IWGP World titles simultaneously. He famously defended the NWA World title against Flair at WCW Superbrawl I in 1991. Flair was the WCW World Heavyweight champion and the match was for both belts. Flair won the match and regained the NWA title as a result.

    Fujinami is still an active wrestler in Japan, having founded the Dradition promotion in 2008. He remains an active competitor at the age of sixty.

    Ok

    Would that be the first time they've put in a wrestler that's never wrestled in WWE? Why would they do that good and all as I'm sure he was?

    They tend to like someone finishing the show that can be there physically.
    Having the Genius rattle on for 20 minutes wouldn't be a preferred show closer, I would have thought.
    If Nash can be considered good enough, then Vader or even Sid could too.
