Bischoff belongs in the wrestling hall of fame. It’s weird it’s wwe but if that’s the only one there is then it’s good he’s in it.

She’s scraping the barrel of alumni who aren’t in the Hall of Fame. If this were a legit Hall of Fame, no one would seriously say she deserves to be in it. At least Eric had impact on wrestling as a whole. I hope you said the same thing about The Bushwackers, Koko B Ware and Hacksaw Jim Duggan. People did, though, probably not as much for Duggan. For a time, in the late 80s/early 90s, he was one of the most popular stars in the WWF - go back and listen to some of the ovations he got. Not to mention, he was used as a Hogan placeholder at house shows, he was usually the one that face Earthquake, Sarge, Andre, and Ted, on the house show circuit when Hogan was feuding with those guys but not able to make the show. |

Molly deserves it and Eric deserves it. Molly did far better than WWE probably even planned for her and made a lasting impression on many of her co-workers and fans. Her entire career deserves an induction in any HOF.
Eric came closer than anyone, actually no one even came close to him, to putting WWF out of business. He forced WWF to change gears which led to their finally winning the war and I give him a lot of credit for even having the guts to step on to WWE ground especially the table for 3 with Bruce and Bradshaw where Bradshaw looks drunk and looks like he's waiting for word from Vince to kill Eric.

Well it's pretty few & far between in terms of women they can put in. So why wouldn't someone who held the title and had a good 5 year run not be considered. She should get in based off of what she did, not the fact that she was a woman. What did she do in that 5 year pan to get in? Well, she’s one of the only women (maybe THE only woman?) to have won one of the men’s titles at WrestleMania. |

She did have a legendary 1 hour run with that title. |

It should be about their merits as a performer and their legacy. That said the HOF is a joke and really not to be taken seriously. |

I know people like to say ‘iTs NoT a ReAl HaLl Of FaMe!’ but Bischoff’s reaction shows much the induction means to him, and other inductees too.

Fans act like it doesn’t mean much because they don’t agree with some of the people inducted, but it’s not about the fans at the end of the day. It’s about recognition for the hard work you’ve been in. Which is why some like Chyna and Vader wanted so badly to go in before they passed. Fans just overall suck the life out of everything, which is why I don’t care for fans being part of the event. |

It also means a lot to the families of deceased workers. A HOF induction may be the only time they get to be involved with wrestling and see how beloved their relative was to fans and wrestlers on a large scale, in front of a crowd.

Cheer who you want, boo who you want but on a night that is celebrating six or so people’s careers, there’s no room for boos, or “oNe MoRe MaTcH’ chants for that matter. Jericho on his podcast was furious at people booing during the 2015 ceremony and he was absolutely correct. |

Well deserved. I never watched any WCW growing up but I loved him as the heel general manager. The stuff he did with Austin, Kane and Shane was great too.

Is a bit strange that the man that tried to kill the WWE is going into their Hall of Fame though. Kinda what I thought, lol... he deserves it based on accomplishments, just feels weird. |

Eric definitely deserves it
Molly too, its kind of surprising that today when everyone is aware of "work rate" to not know that she was the best female technically in ring for years - I don't know anyone who was better then her for her in ring ability till after like 2014. Especially in an era where woman matches were not pushed, now that we have had so many great ladies maybe it doesn't seem that way but she was incredible bell to bell, so smooth. She's like a female Christian in that sense.
