The WWE Hall of Fame Has Other Options
by Eric E. Jenkins
In professional wrestling, when a gimmick or story line overstays its welcome, the promoters will pull the plug on it and move on to something else. Based on this year’s list of inductees, the WWE Hall of Fame might have run its course as well.
To begin, I have no problem with Gorgeous George, Stu Hart, Antonio Inoki or Mad Dog Vachon being inducted, because they have all had great careers, but none of these men have ties to WWE. I also do not have a problem with Wendi Richter, because it shows that Vince can forgive and forget, but she is truly not worthy of the Hall of Fame. In truth, the WWE Hall of Fame inductees should either have some tie to WWE or have had Hall of Fame careers, and while each member of this year’s class either fulfills one or the other of these requirements, there are some who fulfill both, are not on the outs with Vince and have not yet been included in the hall.
