Maybe if and when TNA has shut up shop and WWE subsequently starts to acknowledge that company's existence. You combine all of his history then he'd have a case once he retires, but unless he does some seriously big things in the few years he'll have in WWE he'll have to wait a few years after retirement to get in I reckon

It's too early to say but if his WWE career keeps going really well and he wins titles and other important matches, I think he very well could be one day. They will also take into account his IWGP title reigns, which not many Americans have won that coveted title.

ABSOLUTELY NOT! AJ certainly has a chance to change that. Sting is a LEGEND. AJ is fantastic, but far from legendary. Totally disagree. He's held the NJPW and TNA Heavyweight Championships as well as other titles. He's had some of the best matches and some good stand out moments. If  ing Koko B Ware is in for doing absolutely NOTHING, then right now AJ is a 100% lock. No doubt, Koko doesnt belong there. But I holding the TNA Title, in WWE eyes, is like me buying a replica belt and calling myself a champion. AJ is fantastic competitor and has had some amazing matches. I love the guy. But Sting is an iconic wrestling name. AJ is not. |

Well, Sting's going in this year and Styles already has a better WWE record.

If he becomes Governor of California and stars in Kindergarten Cop he will have what it takes. What if he has a bird as a valet? Saying AJ should go into the WWE Hall of Fame today is like saying Michael Jordan should be in the baseball Hall of Fame. Yeah, he was there, but that's not what he's known for. There is a Wrestling Hall of Fame, you know, outside of the WWE one. |

What is going on with this place lately?
If AJ blows both of his knees out tomorrow and never wrestles again, then no. I do not see him going into the HOF. Comparing AJ to Sting is just weird. Sting is on a whole nother level. If things work out for AJ ,and he can stay healthy, then yes I'm sure he will... eventually.

Let's wait until he's been in WWE for a week first.

His career wasn't particularly noteworthy until the last couple of years. He's got a long way to go to be Hall of Fame worthy.

Yeah, in the future I could see him being in the HOF. This guy is a legend in the making. They're posting some of his wcw matches on there youtube channel.

Too early to predict. In WWEs eyes, he hasn't done anything significant pre WWE *cough* TNA *cough*

Rikishi's in the Hall of Fame so anything is possible.

I dont think this is really a talking point right now, AJ's been with the company 5 minutes, at this point in time I dont really want to see him in the Hall, he hasnt really done anything in WWE, I know he's great and everything but he's still fairly unknown.

People still don't seem to understand the WWE Hall of Fame concept.

Styles and Sting are not really alike. Sting had many accomplishments outside of WWE with a company that was kicking WWE's ass at one point. Styles had major accomplishments outside of WWE on a much lower level than where WWE is. A lot of the casual WWE audience probably doesn't even know who Styles is, they know Sting.
