Hall of Fame Predictions

[Urfarkendarf]

So, who do you think is going in? The list above is by no means anything other than a guide, add your own!

Don't necessarily pick who you "want", who do you think "will".

My guesses:

Mick Foley

Cyndi Lauper

Bruno Sammartino

Kevin Nash

Lita

Demolition

[The Heenan Family]

Bruno Sammartino
Mick Foley
Kevin Nash
Carlos Colon
Big Boss Man
Demolition
Cyndi Lauper


EDIT: If they can't get Bruno, then replace him with Bob Backlund.

I would have gone with the Fabulous Freebirds as the tag team but inducting them in New York would be weird. Especially if they plan on sending WrestleMania to mid-south territory next year. So Demoliton is possible. Maybe the Hart Foundation to get Jim Neidhart in there.

[Aaron E. Dangerously]

Locks: Hart, Macho, Foley
Possibly: Lita, Trish, Rock, Backlund
Longshot (this year): Sid, HHH

[Mayonnaise]

Foley seems likely as does Cyndi Lauper.
I won't doubt them getting Bruno until the show starts. Bob Backlund as well
It wouldn't shock me to see the Hart Foundation get inducted either so Owen goes in without going in. Barring that, Hall and Nash to play off the Kliq's history in NYC.

Announcer Guy: WWE inducts Leaping Lanny Poffo into the WWE Hall of Fame


Lanny: WHAT? Randy was the one who said he'd only go if we went in as a family. I didn't care either way! *does the robot for no reason while confetti falls from the ceiling*

Voted Mr. T, Nash, Foley

[fw91]

I heard on a newz site that Foley actually isnt getting inducted and Nash believe it or not will be the headliner.

Anyway my picks.
Kevin Nash
Bob Backlund
Andy Kaufman (was rumored earlier, even though Lauper makes more sense at MSG)
Freebirds (Longshot probably but, it fills the tag team/faction quota)
Trish Stratus
Brian Pillman (posthumous inductee quota, and can't really see anybody else right now. Savage and Owen still won't get in this year)

[Red Impact]

I think The Rock gets in this year, along with Trish, maybe Demolition, and probably an older name or two. I don't think there's any chance of Bruno or Owen getting in.

[Widow's Peak]

I think everyone on the list will be inducted at some point, but as for this year Foley and Nash seem the most likely. Bruno is a bit of a long shot but you never know.

I actually think they should hold of Rock and Macho Man until WM 20.

[The Heenan Family]

I've said this before but Willie Gilzenberg not being inducted while WrestleMania is in Newark would be a slap in the face to WWE history. If a regional star like Bullet Bob Armstrong can get in while in Georgia, then surely the longest serving President the WWWF ever had and Vince Srs right hand man/promoter could get the nod.

Or if not Gilzenberg then Toots Mondt should go in for bringing Vince Sr into the business and helping him build the company.

[The Gambler Fan]

This is the year of the snake. Jake Roberts should have been in the Hall of Fame long ago. This should be his year since he is sober now.

[Reflecto]

Only one on the list I'd say is a lock besides it would be King Kong Bundy- apparently, WWE's wanted him in for years but he doesn't like to travel far from home for the honor. They're in New Jersey this year, so he seems like a mere formality this year.

[RedDevil]

I'd be amazed if Foley doesn't go in this year.

I expect the Rock will headline next year for WrestleMania XXX, unless the Undertaker goes in that year. Either way, I see the Rock being "saved" for a landmark WrestleMania.

Lauper for the celebrity induction I think, though they might want to save her for the 30th anniversary of her most famous appearance.

Good call on Bundy - I'd like to see him inducted. Also if Jake Roberts is in a good place, then perhaps it's best to get him in sooner rather than later.

Nash I can see wanting to go in with Hall, meaning they'd probably not do it this year based on him not trusting himself with attending HBK's induction. Though like Jake, if he's in a good place then the sooner the better.

Owen won't be going in, likely ever, but certainly not with the latest legal action fresh in the memory - not even a sneaky Hart Foundation induction (which would anyway need Anvil to be cleaned-up, and I don't know what state he is in right now). It would however be good to see Brian Pillman's family accept his induction.

Have there been any more develops on Bruno since the phone-call with Triple H? I know they are on good terms, but wasn't the main objection that Bruno didn't want anything to do with WWE as long as Vince was involved?

[Deleted]

The Rock.

Tonight on Raw.

[A Platypus Rave]

I'll believe Bruno will get in when I see it.

They've asked him countless times and he always turns it down.

[Lardlad]

I think that Foley, Backlund and Cyndi Lauper will get in this year.

I hope they induct Trish and Lita in the same year.

I'd like to see Davey Boy Smith on his own the most, but won't hold my breath.

[Manute Bol]

Mick Foley
Bob Backlund
Cyndi Lauper
Diamond Dallas Page
King Kong Bundy

Maybes:
John "Bradshaw" Layfield
Bam Bam Bigelow
Joey Styles
Mr. T

So far, 1 for 1!

[Free Hat]

I voted for Foley, Rock and Nash. I would be very, very surprised if Rock doesn't go in, as I imagine 2013 will be the year he wrestles his last match. Foley's been hanging around a lot lately, so he seems like a sure bet. Nash I expected to go in last year, so he's overdue. The rest I think are longshots outside of Trish, Lita or maybe Backlund.

Foley's confirmed as of today.
