he could barely headline a WCW PPV, no way is he headlining the Hall of Fame. Come on now, Ted DiBiase headlined a HOF a few years back, so I don't see why DDP couldn't headline this one. And seriously, who is really left that COULD headline a HOF for the WWE?? All the huge names are in, and any that aren't are dead. Rock, Triple H, Daniel Bryan, Kane, Undertaker, Cena, DX...so there are headliners for at least seven more years.

All the huge names are in, and any that aren't are dead. DiBiase also headlined Wrestlemania & SummerSlam.... Including some guys who are still active but slowly approaching the end of their careers Angle, Rock, Goldberg, Undertaker, Kane, Triple H, Chris Jericho, and you *could* make an argument for Sid as long as he doesnt have a softball game. Your Sid remark won me over! But I don't see Angle going into the HOF any time soon. Rock is still some what active, as is Goldberg, Taker, Kane, Triple H and Jericho. Though all deserve to headline a WWE HOF ceremony, I doubt it will happen any time soon. Luger, DDP, Demolition, Beefcake, and Sid are still the bigger names that need to go in (and DDP is a sure thing as mentioned, and I believe Beefcake is too). Maybe putting in the NWO or DX as a whole group could headline a HOF ceremony down the road too.

Amazing. Dude deserves it. He's done so much in and out of the ring its apastounding, and he continually has an impact on so many lives I can't wait to see him get honored.

I didnt mention Luger for one of the reasons I dont think DDP would be a headliner. He's not a "WWE Guy". I realize that 2 non WWE guys have headlined before but lets be honest Sting & Flair are on other levels then anyone that worked in WCW. Demolition absolutely deserves to go in, as do the Steiner Brothers...However seeing as Legion of Doom were "under carders" for the ceremony, neither team would be a headliner.

I actually would of put em in during the class of 2006 in Chicago. Bret was the headliner which was a nice choice overall but having LOD in Chi-town as headliner wouldn't of been a bad thing either.

I'm glad DDP is getting inducted in the HOF. I think either Jake Roberts or Eric Bischoff will induct.

The guy absolutely deserves it for no other reason than he's saving people's lives. His body of wrestling work speaks for itself, but he's out here changing lives and it's inspirational.
On a side note. I would like to see WWE, TNA and all the top federations set up a retirement program with DDP. He's one of the few wrestlers that's transitioned well after wrestling and I'm sure he could help hundreds of wrestlers live a fulfilling life once their career is winding down.

A man with one of the greatest stories in the history of professional wrestling. Along with Sting and Windham, he is one of my favorites from WCW. It's about time!

Amazing. Love DDP the wrestler, character, and real life human. Very much deserved.
Hoping to see Vader get in too this year.

I had a conversation with Santino a couple weeks ago. who is still friends with a lot of people within the WWE
he said besides DDP. which he was right about. Apparently Victoria is the Female this year (heard originally it was supposed to be Sable) That Vader is being inducted, The Celeb might be Cindi Lauper. and that the Tag Team may be the Moondogs

Happy for DDP. I was an avid WCW fan from 97 to close. So he's a guy I really enjoyed. His feud with Raven is one of my favorites of all time. Definitely a guy I think WWE should have done more with when he came over.
Good on Vader for going in too if it ends up being his year. That seems like a pretty weak class though in terms of star power. Might be hard to fill up an arena with that group of names.

Apparently reports are coming in that Ravishing Rick Rude will also be inducted this year.

Apparently reports are coming in that Ravishing Rick Rude will also be inducted this year. That one is LONG overdue. This is looking more and more like a class of guys that deserved more than they got.
