Lanny is probably just talking poop because it's his only chance of ever getting in. Probably. And besides, Lanny has no business being in there. Then again they have Koko B. Ware in it...so why not.

I'm pretty sure that it was only Randy Savage and the Genius who were in the WWF out of the Poffo family. Abdullah the Butcher never set foot in a WWE ring and he is in the WWE HOF. I think it's more or less becoming a contributions to pro wrestling HOF as opposed to just a WWE HOF. I know Antonio Inoki worked against WWF guys in Japan but I don't think he ever worked in WWE either did he? Either way, time in the WWE seems like an unnecessary prerequisite at this point. Even with that, I enjoyed the Genius character, but I don't want to see anyone steal Macho Man's thunder, his brother and father included.

Macho Man is known as Randy Savage (in the wrestling world), not Randy Poffo. It wouldn't make sense for them to induct them as a whole as 'The Poffos'.
That would be like inducting the Ultimate Warrior as Jim Helwig.

This could keep Randy out of the Hall for a while. I think both Randy/Lanny had a lot of admiration for their father. Randy refused to do something in WCW unless Angelo was inducted there. I can't remember all the details. They are not the Von Erichs, who despite their immense difficulties ran a very sucessful/influential promotion. Angelo ran a crap rebel promotion that actually hurt Randy's career for a while. Lanny belongs nowhere near the Hall, and Angelo in marginal, but it has plenty of marginals in it now. I just don't want anything to take away from Macho Man's night. Angelo use to hold some Navy world situp record though, possibly still does which is impressive.
