Its not going to happen. I think the only time the WWE mentioned Hercules since he passed away was on the Self Destruction of the Ultimate Warrior DVD where they were talking $#!+ about how bad his matches with the Ultimate Warrior were.

If he does deserve HOF recognition, it surely one day will come. It would make a killer figure.

I want Lex Luger in the HOF too. I was hoping Sting and him would go in together.

Ill hit on multiple points at once here...
If Hercules was made I would absolutely buy him. Ill buy pretty much anyone from that era as it was my favorite of all time.
-Does Hercules belong in the Hall of Fame? Its really irrelevant. The WWE HOF is a farce anyway you look at it. There are a lot of people that arent in the HOF that should be and a lot that are in that shouldnt be. If the WWE HOF was "legit" Hercules wouldnt sniff it. That's just a fact. Sure he might have had a cup of coffee here and there in a few main events but ya know what, John Taylor had some big catches and a few Super Bowl rings but that doesnt make him a HOF Wide Receiver.

I want a Herc figure, he's a truely missed figure in the CS & Flashback line. But HOF? That's a stretch, nothing in his career is HOF worthy. I'm not some young kid knocking him cause I wasn't around in his era, I was - but what is his biggest accomplishment a lame fued with a young Warrior or a mid-card tag team with a cool name. Yes there have been lesser stature people put in (Koko, Rodz, etc.) but that is WWE's way of affirmative action which would not apply here. What Did Trump do? He had 1 appearance in a match and maybe a couple appearances in the crowd at Mania. What did Drew Carry do? He appeared in one wwe ppv where his most memorable line was that he said that he didnt watch wrestling.

He doesn't belong in the Hall of Fame someone like KoKo who won a championship...multiple championships throughout his career deserves to be in the Hall of Fame... comparing Hercules to KoKo is ridiculous... in my opinion I'm not dissing your opinion I'm just saying looking at your opinion it seems a little under educated read up on your facts and you will see Hercules doesn't belong in the hall now does that mean we don't deserve a Hercules figure absolutely not make a Hercules figure make everybody happy but don't put him in the Hall of Fame just to make his figure

There are different parts of the Hall, the Celebrity wing is WAY different than the part where the wrestlers go. Because they are way different & I assumed everyone knew that I did not include it in my original post.

Hercules is one of those guys I would like to see in the last year of this current contract with Mattel (2019) along with Bastion Booger,Berzerker, Brooklyn Brawler and Gobbledy Gooker. Really hoping they can squeeze those out in a couple years after we get about 20 to 30 other midcarders everybody wants.

Koko to me deserves it for all the big matches he was in in WWF. he belongs and so does Herc. Herc more so IMO. He had much bigger matches and fueds. IMO EVERYONE who was someone deserves to be in. I see HOF as honoring the guys we grew up watching. not just those won won (or were GIVIN a belt push) by writers/promoters. just because WWF didnt decide to give Herc a belt doesnt mean he shouldnt get the accolades others get. you do know pro wreslters dont actually win belts, it is written in the storylines. his family who watched him be a pro wreslter and provided for them as a wrestler would like to see him in the HOF and honored for all the years he put in as well. He main evented enough big matches and is totally worthy IMO!

If you go on the wwe website and click on their Hall of Fame section, the website shows you the people in the Hall of Fame with out any distinction between who is in the HOF as a wrestler and as a celeb. If you want to talk about wrestlers though, they have the Sting going into the HOF and he had a hand full of matches on wwe ppv. They also have the Horsemen in the HOF and the Horsemen were never even in the wwe.

The truth though is that they only showcase people that they get along with. For some reason wwe has an issue with Herc. I wish they would get over it already and give us a Herc figure.

UFC HOF is the same way. Dana White doesnt get along with Frank Shamrock or Don Frye so they dont get inducted.

I liked him too back in the late '80's but he's not a HOF'er, not even close. Having a figure of him would be cool though.
