There are a lot of people Ted DiBiase could be inducting. Dick Murdoch, Dr Death, Tommy Rich, Stan Hansen, The One Man Gang, or even Jake the Snake Roberts. But I'd suspect it's Mike Rotundo aka Irwin R. Schyster. I would also throw his old Rat Pack partner Matt Borne as another outside one too. |

Random thought but if Hogan doesn't work out, what about having Animal to induct Warrior?
From what I recall it was Warrior, Sting and LOD started out together when they first got into wrestling.

Well, Animal teamed with Warrior in WWF several times as part as six/eight man tags, but The Road Warriors started out before Sting and Warrior. Road Warriors got their start through Eddie Sharkey and from knowing several wrestlers from Minnesota like Barry Darsow. Sting and Warrior started out with Rick Bassman as part of Powerteam USA with two other men. Promoters were only really interested in Sting and Warrior and they became a tag team called the Blade Runners, inspired by characters from Mad Max films. They wrestled in Texas and Memphis. At one time they were managed by Dutch Mantel. |

Warrior and Jake Roberts are trading attacks in the media so I'd expect Roberts to be on the outside looking in this year unless WWE wants to risk losing their announced headliner.

Definitely support that, but there are several deserving teams that should go in first-Rock & Roll Express, Midnight Express, Freebirds and British Bulldogs, for example.

Meltzer has a note today about how Ted DiBiase Sr had to pull out of the Mid South show Mania weekend because the WWE just booked him for Mania weekend Maybe he will induct Dr Death or Murdoch I've seen both Danny Hodge and Steve Williams' names come up. |

Jake apologised to Warrior on Twitter so I don't think it'll affect anything. Yeah I finally saw Jake's apology and while seeming to be heartfelt, unless Warrior accepts and backs off his attacks I don't see Jake going in. Warrior holds grudges and isn't afraid to f*** people over because of it.

Man, I am not JR's biggest fan but if they induct either of those men and don't have JR as the man doing the honors that is f***ed up. |

Warrior's induction has set another milestone: his 1990 Survivor Series team, including Kerry Von Erich and the Legion of Doom has become the third Survivor Series team in history in which all members are HOF inductees (the others being the 1991 team of Slaughter, Duggan, Kerry and Tito Santana and the 2006 team of Flair, Slaughter, Dusty Rhodes and Ron Simmons).

I would love for them to start making up tag teams that didn't exist as a way of getting two guys in at the same time.
Sgt. Slaughter: I'm here to induct the great multi-time WWE tag team champions, Dino Bravo and Hercules Hernandez.
