Being from Pittsburgh, I wonder if this will receive a little local coverage. I remember an article in the paper around 2005 when he turned them down, so they should have an article about him finally accepting.
Maybe this means they are in the planning of building an actual HOF. I remember hearing that one of the reasons Bruno kept refusing was that there wasn't an actual HOF.

Well I know for some years now, there has been the on and off talks about creating an actual physical Hall. I have to say a few years back, it scared me that Triple H would be in charge one day. Now, with stuff he's been behind in the past year, including this, I'm actually feeling good about him at the helm. At lot better actually than Vince being there.

With Bruno going in, their next goal should be making Savage and Warrior happen.

So who will be in head of the class? Bruno or Foley? Foley was named first, so he'll be the head. It sucks though because Bruno and MSG are like that. It's a perfect match but Foley was New York-made as well so, what can you do?

I have to believe Bruno wouldn't accept if he wasn't the main attraction though I could be wrong.
This is great news and a big coup for Triple H. Props to him

The fact that Bruno and Backlund are both going into the hall makes this class soooo much better then what it was turning out to be. This is like adding Magic Johnson and Larry Bird to the NBA Hall of Fame in the same class.

Never saw this coming. He could be a HOF headliner. Good for him.
Edit. I forgot the HOF was at MSG this year. So perfect.

Wrestling has nothing to do with the talent you have in the ring it has everything to do with how many asses you put into the seats. Bruno put asses in the seats for 20 years and still holds the record for most sell outs at The Garden. Bottom line you could be the most athletic performer and never sell a seat or you could be a punch and kick type of guy and sell out the world. Bruno above all else deserves to be there for this reason alone. That may be true, but they are in completely different circumstances. When Bruno was on top, there really was no one else to be on top and the entire industry was completely different to the 90s with the backstage politics, scandals and how the fans viewed the industry. Either way, Bruno deserves it. I'm not disputing that, but I'd hold Owen's induction in much higher regard. No one else on top during Bruno's time? So I guess Billy Graham, Pedro Morales weren't top draws in Madison Square Garden during Bruno's time of selling out MSG?

The only bad thing that Bruno fails to realize,and this is something that has never changed and probably never will change,and that is the fact that the WWE is still considered to be all sports entertainment,something that Bruno would never want to be a part of,or agree to.Triple H never expalined that to Bruno when he had talks with him I bet? Otherwise deep down Triple H would know that Bruno would never agree to such a thing.A HOF for sports entertainment wrestlers and not true Pro wreslters as it used to be termed in the past.Bruno doesn't know what he is getting into because of this.Otherwise he would want to pull out of it.

Then why are you even a wrestling fan. You don't care about Bruno so in other words you don't care about Pro Wrestling in general because without Bruno Sammartino there is no WWE today plain and simple. I suggest you should either keep quiet and learn what Pro Wrestling is all about before speaking or look up another hobby. And that goes to anyone who say's they don't care.
