Yeah this is, a backdoor (pun intended) to getting Chyna in without a lot of awkward thought to who would induct her (Foley) and who accepts? Foley again? They will probably all be double inductees, except maybe Chyna and there’s a fair chance HBK will be a 3 time inductee. Be a looooooong time off before Jannetty gets anywhere near the HoF for that to happen |

I think whichever headliner they had in mind has fallen through, either The Rock not being free and Undertaker or Batista wanting to hold off.
The fact they have taken this long to announce it, (they usually announce the headliner in the first week of January) that fact they went with The Harts first but obviously thought DX was a bigger deal, and the last time the added a group as the headliner in 2012 (The Horseman) it was because the original headliner they wanted (Savage) they couldnt agree on, so they added The Horseman/Edge as co headliners in what seemed like a 2nd choice deal

Should we segue this to an official 2019 HOF thread?

Kind of annoying that they didn’t want anything to do with Chyna until she died, but here we are.

Just given her history and the things she'd say in interviews I absolutely would not have trusted her with a live mic. Yeah. The last years of her life were not great. It was a rollercoaster for her for a very very long time. She was having meltdowns doing the Surreal Life on VH1 too even. I know people like to point at Sunny, but Sunny had a lot of years where she actually seemed to get her life together. She got healthy, got cleaned up. It wasn't until a few years after her induction that she fell off the deep end again. |

I like the graphics for the Hall of Fame this year. Very clean.

OK, this will be the proper Hall Of Fame thread for this year, so a few edits have been made to the OP.

Most of the WWE Universe won't know who they are, but I'd love to see the Midnight Express inducted with Jim Cornette this year.
Mainly, I'd like to see one of the unsung goats Bobby Eaton inducted this year.

Such an odd induction. One guy's already in and all the others more than merit individual (well, duo for The Outlaws) inductions. Who would've thunk Triple H would share his initial HoF induction with 5 other people? It is surprising that hhh is going in for the first time as a group. They won't be able to say hhh takes his rightful place in the hall of fame now. When he does get a solo induction, it will be "getting his second induction, triple h." |

Just put Regal in there already. Dude is retired and deserves it.

I'm not looking forward to the induction. We've seen dx together fairly recently for the raw 25. We've seen most of the kliq members together on stage at hall of fames...and road dogg singing with double j last year. I think it will be normal shenanigans and won't feel as special as most hall of fame headliners.

Unless, of course, he goes in solo this year as well, and he doesn't partake in the DX group induction because he's on the roof of the arena preparing for his Book of Revelations / Second Coming of Christ entrance. |

30 minutes from whoever is inducting them 30 minutes each for Road Dogg, Billy Gunn, and X-pac 15 minutes for Chyna 45 minutes for HBK 60 minutes for HHH Maybe DX will be the only inductees because they won't leave time for anybody else. I don't even know if I'm being serious here or not. Just put Regal in there already. Dude is retired and deserves it. That is one speech that I'm looking forward to whenever he goes in. It'll be emotional, funny, and just entertaining all round. |

Bret Hart's phone rings.
Bret: Hello?
Vince: Hey pal! We wanna put the original Hart Foundation in the Hall Of Fame. We'll honor The Anvil and you'll go in the Hall twice! Sound good?
Bret: Yeah let's do it! As the greatest wrestler ever I deserve two inductions, plus the Anvil thing you said.
Vince: Great. Oh and by the way, Shawn Michaels is also going in twice and DX are gonna headline over you.
Bret: What?!
Vince: HAHA SCREWED YA AGAIN PAL!

DX should just "break da rulez!" and induct themselves. There's 5 of them, plus hopefully putting over Rick Rude and Chyna. That's a lot of talking. They don't need an intro on top of it. Can this also count as the forced celebrity induction since Run DMC are honorary DX members?

Hopefully DX dont decide to pull a Freebirds and invite each and every one of their friends.
