Had they included HBK when the nWo was inducted he would have been a contender for 4x. Individual, DX, nWo, and The Rockers Had Rude been included in nWo and DX he’d be a contender for 6. DX nWo Triple Threat Heenan Family Dangerous Alliance Individual Rude should have been included for the DX & NWO inductions

Outlaws were the biggest and most over tag team of the Attitude Era. Waltman was a star on his own outside of the factions he was in. Their individual achievements shouldn’t be ignored just because they happened to also have been in popular factions as well. Pac is just as accomplished, if not more, than some of the names of singles competitors already in like Hillbilly Jim, Abdullah the Butcher, etc. NAO definitely should be recognized as a tag team if teams like Bushwackers are in. They got to have a speech, that's that. X-Pac got two. Plus the Hall of Fame classes are smaller these days. Sometimes only 4 wrestlers. Why should people who already did speeches & got celebrated hog more spots. Hell, look at Arn Anderson's speech with the Horseman that's as perfect a HOF speech as you can get. Why does he need to go in again. Are you man enough to take arn Anderson's spot. Not just anyone's spot. But arn Anderson's spot.

DX nWo Triple Threat Heenan Family Dangerous Alliance Individual Rude should have been included for the DX & NWO inductions Definitely DX for sure. And so many people were snubbed from nWo. Either do the core 3 or put everyone that had a significant role in.

Eric Bischoff for NWO was also needed. Savage as well. Bischoff, Giant, Savage, Buff, Flash, Pump, Hennig all shoulda went in. There’s absolutely no reason why Syxx goes in and no one else.

It's hard to remember everyone, but I agree that many more should have got inducted. I loved having X Pac get inducted in DX & NWO.

This notion of being inducted more than once is ridiculous on the face of it. Not saying people aren’t deserving, but when you are inducted, it’s for your BODY OF WORK.

I view it like the Rock n Roll HOF. Beatles getting shouldn’t mean Paul, John, or George shouldn’t also get recognition for their post-Beatles work. Dave Grohl definitely should be recognized for Foo Fighters down the road.

I agree it's a little overdone as it is. Of course, there are always going to be exceptions. Shawn is already inducted, but he absolutely deserves separate recognition if they ever put The Rockers in. They were one of the most influential WWF tag teams ever with their high-flying style that inspired an entire generation of future wrestlers. The same can be said for Degeneration X. It is when people also lump in an nWo induction where they lose me as at that point it is just kind of padding the stats. Even for a fictional accolade with no physical location to be showcased like a Cooperstown, there should be some parameters and limitations to keep the whole thing at least a little exclusive. When we start adding in every faction and lesser-knowm gimmick it really waters everything down even more than it already is.

Stone Cold needs another induction as Stunning Steve/Hollywood Blondes The Blondes were definitely a fun little tag team, but do they really deserve to be in the Hall of Fame? Of course both men deserve the honor for their individual bodies of work and contributions to the business throughout their careers.

I guess my understanding was that a wrestler is honored for the positives of their body of work.

In my mind, I had concluded that the logical response to Shawn being indicted was that his work in the rockers was also being honored since that’s part of his body of work.
