the following to be inducted into the hall of fame any time in the near future? Dynamite Kid Chris Benoit Chyna CM Punk Owen Hart Brian Pillman Dynamite Kid - 50/50. Better shot of as a part of the British Bulldogs tag team. Chris Benoit - Less than zero. Chyna - Zero CM Punk - Right now zero. Lawsuits get settled, bad blood cools and AJ or Heyman get them to talking, possible but it will years from now. Brian Pillman - Shocked he isn't in to be honest. I'd guess maybe the next real Midwest WM, not Minnesota, would work. Austin is chomping at the bit to induct him judging by his podcast.

Owen Hart is probably the most likely of the bunch.

Why is Chris Benoit on this list?
Why is he on any 'Will WWE ever' list?
The answer is always no, will always be no, and it's ridiculous to think otherwise.
C'mon people, we're an intelligent group. Let it go.

In order of probability:
Pillman . . Dynamite Kid (as British Bulldogs) . Owen (if they ever figure things out with Martha) . Punk (give them maybe five years or so for everything to blow over) . . . . Chyna . . . x fifty bazillion million trillion billion . . . Benoit

Dynamite will more than likely be inducted at some point with The Bulldogs. Owen is a guarantee at some point. Chyna... and I hate to be blunt, when she's dead. She deserves a pot, but like hell can they risk giving her a mic. Punk, in years time, can't see it anytime soon.

Dynamite Kid - maybe as part of the British Bulldogs. Was a huge innovator so I would love to see him Chris Benoit - NEVER Chyna - NEVER CM Punk - Over time I feel like they will make amends and then he will be. Owen Hart - Martha will never allow it. Only was I can see it happening is if his kids allow it after she passes away. Brian Pillman - Should be in it, not sure why he isn't.

I'll use pop culture to answer:
Dynamite Kid : As inevitable as the next child star drug arrest. Chris Benoit : Has the same chance to get in the Hall of Fame as the little plastic tanks had against defeating Godzilla. Chyna: She's like Pete Rose in the Baseball Hall of Fame. Sure, she's qualified to be in; but can't stop shooting herself in the foot to ever likely get it. CM Punk : He's the Darth Vader of the group. He'll be "evil" or whatever but it will all quickly get swept under the rug the second he decides to turn back to the Light "WWE" Side. He'll be the returning hero from the past someday. Owen Hart: It's like Duke Nukeum Forver. It's coming... sometime. Just don't hold your breath and don't get too excited about what will actually happen. Brian Pillman: Is like finding out Abe Vigoda is still alive. You just figured he was taken care of a long time ago. Now it just seems like any day will be the one.

Mayonnaise what do you mean by the next real MW Wrestlemania, not Minnesota? Because I'm pretty sure that's the only city in the Midwest that's gonna host a Wrestlemania for quite a while.

In order from most likely to least likely in the next 10 years IMO:
Brian Pillman: The most likely, let Austin induct him in too.
Owen Hart: Likely, with the DVD coming out I can see demand growing for an induction.
CM Punk: Wild Card right in the middle. This all depends on Punk I'd say.
Dynamite Kid: Unlikely. He feels like someone who was swept under the rug at this point, I don't see them changing that anytime soon. I could be misreading signs but man I feel like he's been ignored since Benoit.
Chyna: The most unlikely, there's the whole porn thing and frankly every time someone says her name she appears on YouTube and embarrasses herself. I think she'd need to get in better mental shape (if that's possible) before anything else. That being said though I can still see it happening one day if she can turn her life around. HHH did say that his 8 year old or whatever googling Chyna's name bring that stuff up is a problem. And I can see that... this wasn't softcore Playboy stuff... it's hardcore full-on porn, and it's a part of her legacy now because she chose it to be so.
Chris Benoit: No chance ever for a child murderer. Not even included in this discussion.

Minnesota was where he died and that seems a bit, not tasteless but I don't know, I just wouldn't want to bring his widow and kids there.

If Chyna apologized for the remarks toward Waltman and Hunter, and pulled an HBK with her life regretting those said decisions then maybe she could reconcile with the WWE down the line. The only thing that would still get in the way is her beef with Stephanie McMahon.

Pillman was in one of the WWE games as DLC, he seems likely for a future HOF.
I can see Davey and Dynamite going in together as The British Bulldogs, with Bret Hart or Harry Smith inducting.
They have an Owen Hart dvd/special coming up, even if Martha is against it I can see the other Harts convincing her around much like the Poffo family and Macho Man.

It is a complete crime that Brian Pillman is not in the HOF.

Chris Benoit: No chance ever for a child murderer. Not even included in this discussion. If Benoit isn't getting in, then neither is Billington. One can spin CTE into the story of an otherwise exemplary professional who loved his fans. You can't spin "Yeah, I 'eld a gun to 'er 'ead, but I weren't voilent 'cause the gun wa'n't loaded" into the story of a known and documented domestic abuser with a Napoleonic complex who was known for particularly cruel and injurious "ribs" that would make JBL blush.

Owen Hart is pretty likely and I can definetly see Punk in it after things cool down.
Kid and Pillman are possible, don't see why not.
Benoit is a murderer, not happening.
Chyna doesn't deserve it IMO.

Dynamite Kid - Only as part of the British Bulldogs (I'm shocked that Davey isn't in already!)
Chris Benoit - Quite rightly not a chance that he gets in
Chyna - Not in the foreseeable future. She needs to clean up her act and prove she can be trusted first.
CM Punk - Absolutely will at some point, maybe not for a while though. The wounds will heal and the bridges will be rebuilt akin to Warrior and Savage.
Owen Hart - Hopefully the new dvd venture will ensure that it rightly happens in the next few years.
Brian Pillman - Will happen at some point, surprised its not happened already.
