I'd have DDP or Sting induct him.

Deserving inductee.
Dude had an amazing last run last year and closed his career with the best match at a Wrestlemania.

Good for Goldberg, actually really enjoyed his character, and his last run far more than I expected to.
I'm guessing this is the thread now where I post my annual wish to get Martel in the HOF?

Really think it should be either Bryan or Batista headlining this year but Goldberg's a solid choice. Both absolutely deserve it, but won't be (at least this year) for different reasons. Bastista keeps flirting with the idea of a return, so hold off and maybe piggyback his induction off a big run. Meanwhile Bryan is probably going to be gone after his contract is up, so they want to minimize his fanfare when he inevitably goes elsewhere to wrestle again.

He should go on first, just so he can say "who's next?"

Goldberg should not have gone in before Vader. Vader was given 2 years to live almost 2 years ago. Now he's likely to be a posthumous induction behind the guy who ended at least 3 people's careers (Bret Hart and both members of Kronik).

He'll be stepping out in front of the crowd to make his acceptance speech on Friday, April 9, at New Orleans' Smoothie King Center, as the presumptive headlining inductee. Two nights later, he and the rest of the WWE Hall of Fame Class of 2018 will walk out to be acknowledged by an even larger crowd at the Mercedes Benz Superdome during WrestleMania -- coincidentally the stadium in which he played his very first NFL game with the Falcons. April 9th is a Monday

I'd have DDP or Sting induct him. Have it be DDP, then they can induct the Jackhammer into the Diamond Cutter counter from Halloween Havoc as well.

Cool. I wonder how much this goes towards validating the rumoured list that was going around about a month ago, which included... (spoilers?) {Spoiler}{Spoiler}Goldberg (confirmed) The Dudley Boyz Ivory Bam Bam Bigelow Kid Rock (celebrity wing) ...among some likely others to fill out the class. That's.....not a bad list.

He deserves it. Part of me wishes they did it years ago in his hometown Atlanta or waited to do Mania in Mercedes-Benz. I hope he gets better treatment from the crowd, unlike last year. I remember this. They either booed him or chanted Goldberg sucks and ran him out of the hall of fame. Shame those marks couldn't keep quiet.

According to Jericho they haven’t heard from {Spoiler}Kid Rock since a Mania after party where they disgusted him with {Spoiler}MuscleMania between Santino and Cody Rhodes.

Now he's likely to be a posthumous induction behind the guy who ended at least 3 people's careers (Bret Hart and both members of Kronik). Bret had concussion problems before he wrestled Goldberg. He never should have been in the ring in the first place. Vader was stiff as hell and broke a wrestler's back.

Really hope Vader goes into this year's Hall of Fame.
This might be his last chance to go in whilst still alive.
Didn't he have about 2 years to live awhile back?

Oh this isn't for the WCW run, this is for the 10 minutes of wrestling clinic he put on over his last 4 matches last year. /S
Thanks for stinking up Mania season, Bill.

Looking at the spoilered names... {Spoiler}If The Dudleys are inducted, would they be the first ECW created wrestlers to make it into the Hall? ...also, would the still-living other Dudley family members be there for them?

After his performance last night on RAW, this guy needs to go in.
