With the recent and well liked gif of Maria, as well as K2 updating her hard drive to now include the stinkface in her move set over the past year, should Rikishi be put in the Hall of Fame?
Yes not the greatest star of all time but he is one of the most popular characters of the attitude era. Too Cool was a great team and were over as f***. On the other hand when he was given the ball to run with he didnt exactly set the world on fire.
So should he be put in the hall of fame?
In my opinon he should with Too Cool, one of the reasons being to see all three of them do the dance together just one more time.

No, he should not, unless it was part of the Anoi family in general.

Not a chance. Sure, he was with the company for many years, but he has always been a pointless midcarder. Without Rikishi, not a thing would have changed.

Sure, he was pretty over and quite popular. Also he took some impressive spots that aren't used for some reason in highlight videos.

50/50 on this one.
But either way, he was nothing more than an upper midcarder. Sure he got that ran over Austin thing in 2000, and was thrown off the cell at Armageddon. But apart from that, the rest of his run wasn't all that memorable. Although for a while, he did hold the record for the most Rumble appearances not that it means much.

Yes, he should in fact be the first inductee in the "Dat Ass" category.

If he does, then the Koko B. Ware defense will be changed to the Rikishi defense.

I dunno really. He was WAAAAY over, but at that time most people were. The Godfather was getting consistently huge pops, but I can't see him getting in.
That having been said, people don't talk about that time he splashed Val Venis from the top of a steel cage nearly often enough. That blew my mind the first time I saw it.

i'll go with the proverbial answer: If Coco B Ware is in the Hall of Fame, ANYBODY can make it.

Not alone.
I wouldn't have an issue with him going in as part of the Anoai'i Family (As of now only Afa and Sika are in the HoF), but given the relative scope of that induction (3 Generations of varying skill, promotional allegiance, and notariety) it'll be a LONG while. I could see Rikishi possibly DOING an induction for one of his relatives before he'd be inducted himself.
