    I'm a bit stumped in terms of the debate re: who should go in- who should go out.

    I can see the point people have about it taking the prestige of the HOF if lower card guys start being inducted but I can also see the merits in inducting lesser names.

    I think a small thing that has killed the HOF a bit is the sheer numbers they induct every year. When it was resurrected they completely stacked the classes. It would have saved the nesscesity to pad out the event with smaller names.

    Hogan, Piper, Slaughter, Sheik, Heenan all went in, in the same year. I'd easily be just as sold as a fan if you inducted Hogan and maybe another worthy trio one year( Four inductees in total) and the next year do the same with Piper and so on.

    Just think of the truly legendary names left to go in. There aren't that many. Next five years for arguments sake. How many odds on headliners do we have?

    Angle, Taker, Rock, Brock, Vince, Trips?

    I think your right with they toploaded a lot of hofs and now they are running out of headliners.

    Except for the list you have mentioned and i dont think brock, vince or trips will be going in anytime soon. You have bryan and jericho probably kane and big show really left of guys who were big stars.

    Surely at some point HHH or Steph will loby hard enough and Vince will put himself in.

    Taking WWE championship as a benchmark for the marquee name we have:

    Sheamus, Big Show, Angle, Trips, Taker, Orton, RVD, Sid, Jericho, Punk, Bryan, Cena, Del Rio, Rollins, Reigns, Lesnar and Kane.

    Taking the fact JBL and Guerrero played second fiddle I'd safely say 50% of these are not going in as the top name.

    I do feel like they have lowered their standards this year. If Godfather can get in, I wonder will Zack Ryder can get in a few years time since he was popular for a brief amount of time.

    There's a LIMO DRIVER in for f**ks sakes! There are no standards. KOKO B WARE. Anyone can go in lads.

    Will 'Mr McMahon'ever go in the hof ???

    DDP should get a future Warrior Award for his work in helping Jake and Scott hall.

    Goldberg, jbl, y2J, Daniel Bryan should get in the very near future

    I'd love to see a physical touring hall of fame musuem

    DDP should get in the HOF regardless.
    the Warrior Award is little more than a PR stunt, and gives the middle finger to what Warrior himself wanted it to be.

    The production team really joined the Vince McMahon Kiss My Ass Club with that one. Probably the worst movie I've ever seen.
