The first inductee & Headliner is

Brillant to see and well deserved alongside his induction with DX
Has Evolution gone in already?
I'm guessing no John Cena or Batista this year so
HBK or Steph to induct Hunter or a few?
Hopefully Victoria goes in too this year
Think only DX are in so far, Evolution definitely worthy
I'd expect HBK or Steph but hope they don't go with his Daughters or some cringy shite
Like to see Hardyz go in as the tag inductee, APA and Demolition other options
Is JBL in already, as solo/singles star?
Paul ‘Triple H’ Levesque will headline the 2025 WWE Hall of Fame Class
During a WWE Town Hall today for company employees, he was surprised by Stephanie McMahon, The Undertaker and Shawn Michaels with the announcement.
Levesque was completely caught off guard and got very emotional. He also joked he was going to kill Nick Khan.
No doubt the footage of this will air at some stage
So they will be inducting him?

Well deserved.
Behind the scenes
Michelle McCool to be inducted
Not sure what I think of that at the moment
I know people liked her but would go with Mickie and Victoria before her
Yes was hoping Victoria would go in this year
I suppose Mrs Taker had to go in sometime and keep himself sweet, they made it this year
it just feels like all the boys are just keeping themselves happy here.. ( HHH / Taker / HBK )….
I would have said Mickie over McCool myself, as she was a literal bridge between 2 eras and always performed well.
I usually go easy on the WWE HoF but this is poor for me.
Agreed on mc cool, she shouldn't be going in ahead of the likes of Mickie, Victoria etc, although I'm not shocked
Will Layla also be going in or going to induct her, I don't remember much of Michelle outside of Laycool and obviously being Mrs. Taker
Ah, Michelle was decent enough but had a short enough run. From full roster debut to retirement she had less than 5 years. She had a few spells out with injury too if I recall and I remember her doing an interview years ago where she said she got a lot of heat backstage from writers in particular because of her relationship with Taker. Probably with good cause given she's getting a HOF nod now!
Not particularly a HOF worthy career imo but other than the headline inductee I've stopped watching it completely tbh.
Taker could be a busy man on the night
Mrs. Taker certainly does have a bit to do with it but I’d say she had enough merit for her going in.
Of all the women involved pre “Women’s revolution” all the big hitters have gone in. Aside from Victoria, Mickie and Sable (who you could argue was the most over female of all time).
McCool was probably one of the stand outs of the Divas Era.
Lex Luger going in
did he do much in WWF ?
He was shoved down the fans throat and it failed
Sting or DDP didn't do much in WWE either.
But in the grand scheme of things, there are far less deserving people in the HoF than Lex.
Since they bought WCW it pretty much takes both into account.
Was watching bits of his interview with Chris Van Vliet and seems more reason for DDP praise. Be nice if he could at least stand when accepting.
The way he admits to having contributed to Liz's death as well. Just as a man who has come to accept that fact and won't deny it as part of his recovery.
2025 WWE Hall of Fame Ceremony will take centre stage at FointainBlue Las Vegas on Friday, April 18th
It's a balls and by God those on location prices are insane
$8.5 grand??? you would want to be inducting Luger for that price!!!
And sit on John Cenas lap
Live event prices are obscene nowadays but I wouldn't pay more than 50 quid to see the HOF tbh🤣
It's a long slog of wrestling WM weekend and I tend to only catch highlights of HOF to unwind at least a little! And by highlights this year it will prob just mean HHH's speech
We have our tag team, The Natural Disasters
Surprised they weren't before this actually.
Fred Ottman should make his HoF entrance Shockmaster style for the laugh
