I fully expect Flair to be there and accept the Horsemen induction with JJ, Anderson, Tully and Windham. They are going in as a group. I am sure TNA will find a way to make this work.

I mentioned in the Raw thread, Ole has problems with Vince, and I believe at least some of the other Horsemen, so that's likely why he wasn't focused, and they seem to be focusing on the second incarnation of the Horsemen after Windham replaced him. Technically Luger replaced Ole, And then Barry replaced Luger. And I didn't have to Google that info! I stand corrected. I forgot about that, when Barry joined, after turning on Luger in their tag match. |

He was a perfect fit. |

And as far as I'm concerned Barry surpassed them both of them as Horsemen. He was a perfect fit. Totally agree. Flair, Anderson, Blanchard, Windham & JJ was always my favorite version. Windham just fit perfectly to the in ring ability that was a Horsemen standard, as well as fitting perfectly to the Horsemen lifestyle. I always thought, Ole always seemed kinda like the odd man out, when it came to the lifestyle. He was the old school guy, that you just couldn't imagine being out there partying every night. Ole just seemed like the guy that would hate the type of guys that lived the life the Horsemen lived. |

i just remembered something. Rics TNA contract is limited to only a few apperances( like 25 or something) so once he makes all the apperances(i think he is pretty close) he will be free to do what he wants.

Rics TNA contract is limited to only a few apperances( like 25 or something) so once he makes all the apperances(i think he is pretty close) he will be free to do what he wants. He's made more then 25 appearances for TNA. Unlike most though I think he's paid on a "per use" deal and not a yearly contract. He can probably get out of it at any point. I wondered why Ole wasn't in there but I'm simply going by how WWE was doing it. I mentioned in the Raw thread, Ole has problems with Vince, and I believe at least some of the other Horsemen, so that's likely why he wasn't focused, and they seem to be focusing on the second incarnation of the Horsemen after Windham replaced him. I think any problems Ole had with Horsemen members is water under the bridge. Just a couple years ago he was with Flair, Tully, Arn, JJ and Barry at the NWA Fan Fest. |

Very exciting for me. I hope Ric is there, but if he isn't, then that's ok with me too, because honestly, Arn and Tully deserve to have their moment in the spotlight as well. Luger will probably get his own induction eventually, mostly because his horseman run was short. Personally, I would like to see Ole there, but if he doesn't want to, what can you do? I loved the Horsemen as a kid, and the original with Ole is still my favorite, but I enjoyed most incarnations of the horsemen as well.

Flair more than likely has the ok from Dixie to do the HOF, as talked about by Dave Meltzer & Bryan Alverez on wrestling observer radio last night.

when anyone says "The Four Horsemen" I think Flair, Arn, Tully & Windham...with JJ Dillon on the side. I think it's pretty obvious the WWE is only recognizing those guys as the Four Horsemen. Not the 15 re-incarnations of them with Malenko, Luger, etc. Flair is already in...so they are inducting Arn, Tully & JJ as it should be. This doesn't mean that every guy who ever was a part of "The Four Horsemen" gets into the HOF  |

The Horseman... Who never won matches and weren't even in the wwe are going in the hall of fame.
I thought this was the WWE HOF not the Wrestling HOF. Even worse choice than Refridgerator and Pete Rose.

Even worse choice than Refridgerator and Pete Rose.    Shall we try that again? Also, Bob Armstrong, Gorgeous George, Stu Hart, Gordon Solie, Eddie Graham, half of the Von Erichs and Nick Bockwinkel are all in the HOF and never wrestled (to my knowledge) in the WWE. This isnt something new. I also dont see how they "never won matches" as The 4 men they're inducting have held the WWF World, WWF IC, WWF Tag Team, NWA World, NWA United States, NWA National, NWA Television, NWA US Tag, WCW World, WCW United States and WCW Tag Team Titles. |

Also, this means Chris Benoit is a Hall of Famer now too, right? No it doesn't. |

I can't believe someone said Pete Rose deserves to be in the HoF over the Horsemen.
Also, I'm sure Flair will be there at the induction. Remember how they put TNA's World Champion in their video game?

Looks like a lot of championships for a group that was known for losing their matches! Just saying. |

I've heard it all now....Horsmen not being in the WWE, not winning titles? Shouldn't be in the HOF? wow Anvil Fan are you trolling?
The Horsemen are arguably the greatest wrestling stable and this version deserves to be in the HOF.
+1 to Nirvo for setting Anvil Fan straight.

I think WWE did this on purpose to show how many f*cks that they don't give about TNA
