Kinda early, but compared to other non-deserving inductees, I'd welcome it with open arms. He definitely deserves it.

They need a main event star to go into the HOF so Batista is that main event star! The fact people still get butt hurt over the WWE HOF is funny. For the WWE HOF is just a show on Wrestlemania weekend, where a bunch of wrestlers get paid to say a speech about their career, while 30,000 fans sit in an arena and watch, and it's a pay day for the WWE in general. If any one fan still takes the WWE HOF serious then you will be stressing yourself out over it for your entire life. This!

While I do think he is worthy I think it's way to early for Batista to be inducted. But I felt the same way with Edge also.

Oh yea, the yearly HOF bitching is early.
Good for Batista if true. And I love Owen Hart, but the arguing over who is more deserving is weak. Owen is never going in. So stop. Besides Batista did more in his career and made more money. I fail to see how he is "less deserving." Just because he didn't wrestle as well as Owen means nothing.

Hey can someone tell me the address of the hall of fame? I believe scott steiner said it the best the wwe hof is total crap another show ot honor its past wrestlers and its great but they deserve more than a plaque and a ring they deserve a place where people and come and see there achievement in the ring. like the football hof baseball hof and more. what is really sad is Chyna had to die and now that pos triple h and bitch stephanie will now let her in the hof. does anyone else see anything wrong with this. Grammatically, yes. I see a lot that's wrong.

I think thats why The Rock isnt in yet...because I think Vince and maybe even Rock believe there is another match for him or at least the WM spots like he had with The Wyatts. I think Vince wants DEFINITIVE retired wrestlers or as close to.

When you start using Scott Steiner quotes as a way of thinking, you know you've made some mistakes. Speaking of mistakes... Chyna made a porno with people dressed up like Vince & Stephanie. So it's not like she was selling girl-scout cookies and she was blackballed for no reason. And finally, you can mock the HOF all you want. But when we stars from the past pouring their hearts out in appreciation, with a tear in their eye, you can tell it means something to them. Which it what makes it special for the real fans.

I dont claim to be a big Batista fan or one at all, but I think he deserves another match or program before that. I love Bryan so Im glad he got that spot, but its kinda crappy that his exit was Bootista and a little wave. He is almost 50, but hes in good shape.
Have him come back and be like "HHH and Steph laughed at me and look how well that went" Something like that where he kinda "pipebombs" and air his grievances from his last run. Have HHH come out and be like "Sure your a great actor now, but can you still go?" Typical sarcastic HHH belittling Daves success, and calling him out if he can still wrestle. "You fight with raccoons and elves and space monsters, but can you beat The Game?"
But his career is probably already HoF worthy, I just remember him now as Bluetista or Bootista from that last run. He Drax, We Groot....

If Taker is really finished, Taker should headline, and the rock.

Im ok with it, I assume he's likely never coming back to wrestle, his movie career has skyrocketed and he has a legit gripe with how the booking team is nowadays. He is certainly deserving and I imagine he'd be a very humble individual about it.
I wonder, if they induct the Hart Foundation as an entity like they did with The Horsemen, could they technically consider Owen a HOF'er without inducting him individually. Im sure Bret would still say something about Owen regardless of Martha wanted him to or not.
Regarless I'd like to see Bulldog, Vader, and Bigelow go in this year. For the women it should be Miss Elizabeth, Sable or Chyna.

As long as he's done with wrestling I'm ok with it. Big Dave deserves it.

Good for Dave. I don't care who they put in it, it's all for entertainment purposes. Some wrestlers will say It's an honor, while some guys like Paul Orndorff do it for the money and leave the plaque in the hotel room.
In 07 when Lawler was inducted by Shatner, that's when I was like "Ok, this is all about ratings". Then, I think it was 09, The Honky Tonk Man is there...to induct Koko B Ware.
I'm sure it'll be Triple H that does the honors but you know Kevin Dunn is just hoping that a Marvel actor can be brought in.

Well deserved. But it feels rather weird because I remember him as a rookie named Deacon Batisata so vividly. Hard to believe it's been 15 years. I remember being 10 years old and thinking "who the hell is this guy" and thinking that he wouldn't amount to anything. A year later he was in Evolution and I loved him. And the rest of course is history.
I was thinking they'd put Daniel Bryan in this year considering where they're going to be. That would feel even more weird because he still feels like somewhat of a newcomer in the WWE.

I mean, he certainly deserves it. He's an all-time great without a shadow of a doubt. But it's abit early, and so obviously a cash in on his recent Hollywood success. I hope he gets a short run to work a program with HHH before he retires. He's earned that.

It's because they're trying to take a drag from his acting.

If Batista is going into the HoF, I want Baby Groot to induct him. 10 minutes of "I am Groot" would be way better than 45 minutes of Mr. T going on about how much he loves his momma.

While I do think he is worthy I think it's way to early for Batista to be inducted. But I felt the same way with Edge also. Edge had a career-ending injury, so we knew he wouldn't be wrestling again. That's a less extreme (but still comparable) to inducting someone if they died the year or so before. I think it's fine to do the retirement -> HOF process for guys like Edge, Shawn Michaels, Ric Flair, etc. As long as they don't do it every year.
