Really makes me wonder just how tiny his raisins are if Vince continously has to do this.

How dare people reference WCW!? Those bastards had the audacity to almost do to Vince what Vince did to at least a dozen other promotions and to them as well!!
Nash was already one of my favorites. Now he is even more awesome.

"Hey guys, we want to honor you by putting you into our Hall of Fame! Now, here's a list of words you can't use in your acceptance speech, and we only want to honor the parts of of you that we completely own, because you being in the Hall of Fame isn't about you, it's about us."
I hate this company.

This made me wonder when "Razor Ramon" was inducted and not Scott Hall.
I didn't see it, but it sounds like they wouldn't mention anything outside of the Razor character in the induction

I didn't see it, but it sounds like they wouldn't mention anything outside of the Razor character in the induction That was pretty stupid. Everyone knew it was Scott Hall and trying to pretend that the character was being inducted just so they could induct Scott separately was just dumb. But yeah, I'm really not sure why they have a Hall of Fame ceremony if Vince gets upset that people use the "wrong" words and that it's not "exciting". Why induct people for past accomplishments if you don't expect WCW or Eric Bischoff to come up? And sure the show went long, but that's entirely WWE's fault for inducting too many damn people in the first place.

I love that Vince thinks that he can control the actions of HBK or Nash that DON'T even work for the company. One day someone's speech is going to be them going up there and giving Vince the double bird before walking off. lol

I could see CM Punk publicly declining an induction.

I thought he was going to go in as Diesel now, and Razor last year, so they could go in as Nash, Hall and Hollywood Hulk Hogan as the nWo later.

Like Vince is going to stay mad at Shawn for very long. As soon as they feel they need a DX reunion, it will be water under the bridge. So, not even a day later?

I really dislike that idea. If you have all the dude's that were in a faction in the Hall of Fame, then that faction is already in the Hall of Fame. Let some other long overdue guy get in, rather than trot out Oz, then Vinnie Vegas, then Diesel, then Kevin Nash, then Super Shredder, then the Russian from Punisher. I know, the Hall is a bullshit thing for people on good terms with Vince rather than an actual honoring of the greatest wrestlers of all time, but still.

Which makes total sense. It's not as if they've inducted someone twice under the same na... Oh...

I wish they inducted less people. The ones I want to hear speak are usually at the end of the show, and save Warrior, had their time cut.

Oh Vince, still bitter about the actions of a competing company that you beat to the brink of bankruptcy, bought, and mothballed 15 years ago. After WrestleMania Play Button, I suspect he hasn't let that go

If true, ridiculous. Why be bitter over a fake wrestling company that your fake wrestling company crushed 14 years ago? Why be mad at 'strap' and 'WRESTLER'. WRESTLER WRESTLER WRESTLER WRESTLER Stop trying to force people to say very particular phrases only. I have a feeling that the Wrestler/Strap issue was a Kevin Dunn thing. Punk will be the new Macho Man. Every year, people will beg for his induction, and every year, it will either be an outright no, or a close but no cigar.

I also find it disgusting that HBK used the word "Wrestler" whilst inducting a professional wrestler in to the World Wrestling Entertainment Hall of Fame. And during Wrestlemania weekend too, what cheek

So is this the reason the long-awaited Sting WrestleMania match, the one match he'll probably ever have in WWE, was turned into InVasion 2.0?
You know Vince, when most tyrants conquer a land, they stop waging war on that territory. WCW is nothing but radioactive dust at this point. You can withdraw the troops.
