She did more for the business than Beth Phoenix and no one complained when she went in. Uhm....what?! Torrie did absolutely loads for WWE through her modelling (most notably the Playboy stuff) and was the poster girl for the SmackDown! brand while she was there. Beth was just a great wrestler who won the women's and divas championship and appeared in a Rumble. Not taking anything away from Beth, she was ace, but Torrie did so much for WWE as a brand through her mainstream media crossovers and was a great ambassador for them. |

Not to take anything from Torrie, I really like her. But honestly Playboy was about the only outside thing she did. She was in no way a huge star outside of WWE. And I doubt her induction will garner any more outside attention. Tbh, I wasn’t a huge fan of Phoenix going in so early. But hey it is what it is. I’m really saddened that Molly didn’t go in this year. I really thought it would be either her or Michelle McCool. While I still like her, watch Kelly Kelly be in the class of 2020 😂 |

It's weird to me that the people who get angriest about who goes in and who doesn't are the same ones who insist on reminding everyone that they think the HOF is a joke. It means something to the talent, that's all that matters, so stop taking life so serious.

Dunno what she'll talk about during her speech. The time she lezzed out with Dawn Marie, or that time she managed Billy Gunn?
I guess every woman who ever worked the company will get in if they're scraping the barrel this much.

At this point does it matter who goes in? They have to meet a certain requirement ever year. The HOF has lost its luster over the years. I was a big fan of wrestling during Torries tenure in wcw and wwf and honestly I can’t think of one thing that would make her a “hall of Famer”. I actually saw someone write that Roddy Piper only won one title in the WWF and he’s in the HOF, so why can’t Torrie be in? If people are of this mindset, there’s no use arguing.

I don't hate it. I can't hate it. The HoF isn't a serious institution. Almost everyone will be in it eventually.
At least Wilson was a star in her day. I'd take Wilson over McCool 10/10. I dread that day.

I've seriously tried to think of the most memorable things in her career and this is all I could come up with....
- David Flair girlfriend/valet
- Vince sugar baby
- posed naked
- had a cringe worthy storyline with Dawn Marie & her dad.
- boinked Alex Rodriguez
- did yoga
