I was thinking of the HOF, and here's the lineup I came up with:
Haku Steve Williams Magnum TA Rick Steiner (or even both Steiners) Cyndi Lauper (Celeb Wing) Shad Gaspar (Warrior Award) Undertaker (Headliner)

Chat is that the NXT show will be held on the Saturday as a 12pm “matinee” show, ahead of the first night of WrestleMania that night.

That’s an insane amount of WWE content to expect fans to sit through over one weekend.

Imagine if someone wanted to go to both shows that day. Six to eight hours of live wrestling in one day would be so tiring, even if the shows are great.

The issue with doing a big NXT show around the two-night WrestleMania in the same location is that there’s no good timeslot for it because of all the other TV shows (maybe Thursday? Depends when they do the Hall Of Fame). They do it on the Tuesday before, it’s way too early, nobody’s in town for it yet. They do it on the Tuesday after, everybody that’s still there is exhausted.

Odds are again that Vader will be snubbed It seems Vince never seemed to forgive him after he roughed up that reported in Kuwait in 1997.

Breaker vs. Walter would be a fun main. It would, but I wouldn’t be looking forward to the salt when Breakker beats… gimme a sec… Gunther to retain. Breakker is going to steal Mr. Fuji’s salt bucket?

PWInsider reports that the tentative plan is to air the HOF ceremony on Peacock after Smackdowm. Still no word on when the actual ceremony will happen; I assume it’ll be taped considering the time slot. www.pwinsider.com/article/155148/wwe-hall-of-fame-ceremony-update.html?p=1

Interesting that they seem to be running the Stand and Deliver name over again, since I imagine as far as stripping out Triple H influences from NXT go, metalcore medleys featuring Adam Ant covers feel like they'd be one of the first things to go. maybe that was a Shawn Michaels decision >_>
