Vader and Chyna should go in the HOF this year. Chyna won't go in this year, as they already have their dead wrestler pegged for induction.

Here's another guy unworthy of the HOF. Decent character. Good person. Strong resume. Remarkable story, considering how old he was when he started. But NOT a HOF. I mean half of the WWE HOF is a joke anyways, so whats wrong with adding DDP. You can stack his career up against the likes of Koko B Ware, Hacksaw, Bushwackers, Volkoff, etc... and you would be hard pressed not to take DDP over them. 100% agreed. The names you mentioned are perfect examples of it. If they are in, DDP definitely would be in. But I like to look at HOFers individually and DDP is not a HOFer for me. WWE is making this a show so they need X number each year. I would rather just have a class with only qualified guys. If thats 1 or if thats 10.

His career in WWE definitely wasn't Hall of Fame worthy, but DDP is one of the few guys who truly deserves to get in. He was one of the hottest characters when WCW was rolling during its biggest boom period. Oh, and the guy is now committed to fitness and helped save the lives of current WWE Hall of Famers who would've probably been dead long before their induction speeches. A guy who was a true star during his ring days who went on to help his fellow brethren. If you consider yourself a true wrestling fan and don't think he belongs in the HOF then shame on you.

like Rick Rude, DDP has been long overdue for the HOF. I'm very happy for the both of them.

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. 3 Count

There are a lot of great guys out there. Doesnt make them HOF worthy. I do not believe his WCW career is HOF sufficient. Thats just me.

The HOF is a pat on the back for the individuals contributions to the industry, nothing more and nothing less.
There is a distinction between the contribution of Koko B Ware who was a noteable star btw, who did a lot for the WWF especially, and Hulk Hogan who built the landscape of what we see today as Vince's key cog.
The distinction is the same as when these guys were on cards, position! The headliner and the undercard respectively.
I'm sure that this HOF is part show, part showing of respect, not a measure of anybodies accolades. This is a totally different animal than a sports HOF, this is essentially lifetime achievement awards for tv stars.

DDP and Rude so far. I'm happy.
Demolition needs to be inducted.

This could be a WCW heavy Hall of Fame.
I think Goldberg will headline this year's class. Daniel Bryan will headline next year since it is in New Orleans, in honor of one of the best Mania journeys/rise to the top ever.
Goldberg DDP Rick Rude Vader Victoria Bob Barker
