Jim Johnson wrote all the WWE themes from 92 or 93 until a few years back. Pretty sure Jim Johnson dates back to the mid-80's. And I didn't even know he was done with WWE, I remembering hearing a rumour that he was leaving but then never heard any follow up. Either way, I agree he should be inducted I thought Jimmy Hart had them until 91 or 92 and then worked with Johnson and, from what I have read, he is gone. That is why there are so many stock themes and, rock themes now instead of ones crafted to characters.

I recall reading an issue of WWE Magazine maybe two months ago where they had a contest to have him make you your own personal entrance music.

I can see HTM getting in this year since the induction ceremony will be here in Phoenix and HTM lives not too far away in Mesa.

My Ideas
Stu Hart & Owen Hart Inducted By Bret Hart
"The Million Dollar Man" Ted Dibiase Inducted by Ted DiBiase Jr. & Maybe Brett DiBiase
"The British Bulldog" Davey Boy Smith By David Hart Smith*
"Ravishing" Rick Rude Inducted By Paul Heyman or a current WWE Star like John Morrison
Honky Tonk Man Inducted By Koko B. Ware or Santino Marrella
* He could be put with the Hart Family, but I think it would be better if he was on his own with David inducting him

Class of 2010 Inductees: Stu Hart - as announced by Vince McMahon. more to be announcedWho else should get the nod this year? Remember though...Vince said "nominate"....which doesn't make it official. I really fear a "You want your family in the Hall of Fame alongside you? You'll have to join another club........THE KISS MY ASS CLUB!!!" is forthcoming. I don't see Bret doing it, even as the Hitman, but....I fear they will go this way. WWE, if you do read this......don't do that.

My List:
-Million $ Man- Should have been in already, but that's really beside the point.
- The Hart Family/Hart Foundation - Even if it takes a buttload of money and wrangling FIND a way to put Owen into the HOF that doesn't offend his widow's sensabilities
- Honky Tonk Man- Possibly as thier "fun" induction inducted by Santino in character
- Jim Johns(t)on- Inducted by Jimmy Hart
- Warrior
-Celebrity Induction- Donald Trump- yeah, He might be a polarizing figure, but he does cooperate with WWE and has for years.

Ultimate Warrior is just about a lock to get in. Owen Hart deserves to be in, but I'd be shocked if he did because his widow Martha hates wrestling and blames WWE for his death. Actually Savage's "Macho Man" character was created by Savage himself well before joining the WWF, so Vince had no control over his character. But I agree that the Steph incident is a ridiculous theory, although fairly reliable people believe it. On the first Raw after Savage left, Vince made the announcement himself, and said the WWF was losing a great competitor and he was losing a great friend. I seriously doubt he would say something like that about someone that banged his daughter. In fact if Savage would have banged his daughter, I am guarenteeing his absense wouldn't have even been explained on Raw and Savage would never again be mentioned. I believe the whole issue between him and Vince was about money then and probably still is for the Hall of Fame. Supposedly Vince didn't find out about Savage and Stephanie until a year or more after he left for WCW. I've also heard rumors that Vince really hates Savage over loss of the Slim Jim sponsorship. Honestly, I put more stock in the theory that he was too protective of Elizabeth, which lead to the choices she made that lead to how things ended. Though I'm trying to figure out which of Hogan's contemporaries from The 1980's will be inducted, I woul.d really like to see Backlund agree to be inducted.

I'd say they'll try to get Owen in this year, between Bret being there and the "We want Owen!" chant on Raw.

If Davey Boy goes in, Dynamite should go in too, done together as the Bulldogs.

My guesses for this year: Ultimate Warrior - Lives in 'Zona and WWE and he just up and agreed to drop all legal action against each other. Honky Tonk Man - Live in 'Zona and is the perfect midcard induction The Freebirds (Hayes, Roberts, Gordy and Garvin) - Easy to do and with the Von Erichs in, it's only right. Hart Family - Mainly for Stu and Owen Steve Williams - Longshot (along with the Freebirds) but, he has done a lot with WWE in the past few years and, is well respected. As a side note, I would have Jack Swagger induct him and JR accept.

I still say the WWE Hall of Fame is a sham until it contains Ted DiBiase, Rick Rude, Randy Savage, and Jake Roberts.
