That actually looks kind of nice; and it's cool to see that the ceremonies seemed to be taken pretty seriously, quite a few faces popping up there.
They could probably fill up a five story building if they just did a rotating set of displays from Cornette's personal memorabilia collection.

I've been there and my local indy runs a show out there in May to work with the inductions happening. They have a fantastic tape library that we watched a couple of while we were there. It was awesome.

Makes you wonder if somebody could make money with an unofficial HOF. Just buy a load of signed Wrestler merch, find enough of a cheap building to host it in (pref within a tourist trap where non fans will also go, you know, just because whilst on hols).

I've heard of the Pro Wrestling Hall of Fame.
I think that THIS organization should be the be all end all for pro wrestlers rather than WWE's HOF..

I visited the hof about a month ago. It's very nice. It's larger than it looks and you can spend 3 hours in there looking around. It's in a small city in upstate ny about 50 minutes outside Albany.
If you're passing through its a nice experience.
