Hall Of Fame Inductees 2013

Hi there everyone,

Before we get to Wrestlemania we will have the 2013 Hall Of Fame ceremony. This years class was really great before one name was added and then it went downhill!
Here are the names of the WWE Hall of Fame Class for 2013 and who will be inducting them on the night…..

  • Bruno Sammartino: inducted by Arnold Schwarzenegger
  • Mick Foley: inducted by Terry Funk
  • Trish Stratus: inducted by Stephanie McMahon
  • Bob Backlund: inducted by Maria Menounos
  • Booker T: not applicable at this stage.
  • Donald Trump: inducted by Vince McMahon

REALLY! DONALD TRUMP! WHAT HAS HE DONE FOR THE WRESTLING BUSINESS!!!! SERIOUSLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am so happy that Trish, Mick and Book man are being inducted. They all deserve it although with Trish being inducted by Stephanie McMahon, I thought that that was a bit odd. I would’ve thought her long time partner in crime Lita would induct, or Finlay who trained her. Not Stephanie. I don’t remember them every crossing paths. I just find it a bit odd. But that’s just me.

Anyway, have fun and take care Smile

Hall Of Fame Class of 2013

Hi there guys and gals,

Sorry I haven’t updated this much lately. There have been some major personal issues that I have been dealing with for the past couple of weeks and so that is why I haven’t been on here as much.

But, I have to say, during the last couple of weeks there have been some major things happening. One of which is announcements of who will be in the WWE Hall of Fame for 2013.

In my previous blog post ‘Hall Of Fame 2013’ I talked about some rumoured names that had been floating around and some names that I personally believe that should be included. And what happens but 2 rumoured names have been announced and one of the ones that I picked out has also been announced! Yay!

The names that have been formally announced are….

  • ‘Hardcore Legend’ Mick Foley
  • Trish Stratus
  • Bruno Sammartino

Now, Mick Foley was a rumoured name and I think that he deserves to be in the Hall Of Fame. He has earned  his spot there with his death defying stunts and antics.
Trish Stratus was one of the names that I had picked that I would like to see in the HOF purely and simply because she was one of the greatest women wrestlers of all time and helped pave the way for the ladies that came after her like Mickie James and Beth Phoenix.
Bruno is simply a surprise because he has declined the HOF for quite some time.
There was an ESPN article around that Bruno had done and this is what he had to say….
“In talking to Paul Levesque, I made it clear, I’ve had issues with WWE and wrestling in general, because there were other organizations. I didn’t like the direction they had taken. It was bothersome to me. I’m an old-school guy. I spent 25 years in this business. But after talking to Paul, and him explaining to me the changes they’ve made in their program, and how they’ve hired a doctor like Dr. Maroon, who is a world-renowned neurosurgeon, who also operated on me, and now that he has been put in charge of the company’s wellness program and their drug testing, that impressed me. I know what kind of a man he is, and he is a giant in that field, so I take my hat off to WWE because they took such huge steps to make things better for the wrestlers themselves and making sure they are healthy to perform. That was very, very important. But as Paul explained to me, WWE made a lot of other changes. There’s no more profanity, there’s no vulgarity in the current product, and that stuff had bothered me as well. When Paul first spoke to me and told me all the changes, I started watching it again, and I was very convinced that they are doing amazing things. I see the wrestlers and all the changes they made. There’s no profanity, there’s no vulgarity, and it’s a family-friendly program. That’s what it used to be, and that’s a huge role in the whole factor.” (ref: Backstage Update on Bruno Sammartinos HOF Induction)

I think that this is a great step for the company and I think this really shows just how good Triple H is doing behind the scenes with the company. This is a huge thing and as Triple H said in the article, “From a legitimacy standpoint, it’s important for us to get Bruno in…He’s one of the biggest names there has ever been in the business. So for us to not have him in there, for the legitimacy of the whole thing, it was a major issue. For me, the more important thing was that nobody deserves to be recognized for being a big star and paving the way for the stars of today more than Bruno. Everything that we have today in the business, Bruno was a cornerstone of that foundation. He truly is a living legend.” (ref: Backstage Update on Bruno Sammartinos HOF Induction)

Well done to Triple H and well done to the WWE Hall Of Fame Class of 2013!!!!!!!!!!

Hope you have lots of fun and take care.

Hall Of Fame 2013

Howdy there everyone,

I read an article yesterday that was talking about names for the 2013 WWE Hall Of Fame. There are a couple of names that won’t make it for reasons to be explained but some others are actually quite viable.

Here are the names that are currently being tossed around….

  • The Rock
  • Owen Hart
  • Mick Foley
  • Ultimate Warrior
  • Bruno Sammartino

Now, out of those names I can see 2 possibly 3 going into the WWE Hall Of Fame. Rock and Mick Foley are the two definite’s  that I can see going in down the line and particularly since the Rock is kind of making a comeback to the WWE I could see this happening.
Mick is another one who I can see it happening to. Why not? He is the hardcore legend…..He put his life on the line many, many times for the sake of sports entertainment and I believe that he deserves to be in that HOF.

Now, Owen Hart I think defiantly deserves to be in the HOF however, his widow wants nothing to do with the WWE and I believe that because of her hatred (given how he passed away I can see why she would be angry with the WWE) he won’t be in the HOF for a very, very long time. Which is a shame because, from what I have seen, heard and read about Owen, he was a great performer and would be classed in that greatness category which is the Hart Family.

Ultimate Warrior and Bruno Sammartino are the same story in a way because the idea is is that they have both been reached out to before in order to be inducted into the HOF and both have said no many, many times. I don’t know why the reason for this would be but, to me, I don’t think they did anything worthwhile so I don’t see why they should be inducted. Stop asking them if they say no! Duh!

Now, my picks for who I think should go in the Hall Of Fame…. this is bound to ruffle some feathers….

  • Lita
  • Trish Stratus
  • Edge and Christian/Dudley Boys/Hardy Boys
  • Brock Lesnar
  • Paul Heyman
  • Undertaker
  • D-Generation X

Now, Lita and Trish both deserve it because they proved that women can do all the things that men can do and sometimes, they can do it better. And Lita would actually be great if the Hardy Boyz were to be inducted as well.

Edge, Christian, Bubba Ray, Brother Devon, Matt and Jeff Hardy I think should all be thrown in together because they helped create and bring to the forefront the TLC matches and they helped pave the way for TLC matches for the years that followed. They made those matches and I think for that, they should be inducted.

Paul Heyman…..well…..ECW! Nothing more to be said ;)

Undertaker…..self-explanatory

DX, in my opinion, one of the best groups that has ever been in the WWE. Why not induct them. I think they deserve it.

 

Well, there you have it. We shall see what happens in the coming months won’t we. If you have any thoughts, please feel free to let me know. I would like to hear what you guys think.

As for me, I’m going to go and get ready for Survivor Series.

Have fun and take care.
