Sure, the HOF is more a "people who VInce likes" deal any way. When you have guys who never wrestled for the WWE, people who only made one or two performances at events, etc. it's hard to discount a guy that held titles, had a great rivalry with his brother, was part of many angles, part of a famous family, and had a pretty successful international career.

Hell yeah. He was a hard worker, a great wrestler, the fans loved him, and gave all he could for the business he worked in.
If that doesn't earn you a spot in the hall of fame, then there shouldn't even be a wrestling hall of fame.

I think you're wrong about that. Vince McMahon offered Bruno Sammartino to join, and he turned him down. Bret Hart is a perfect example of somebody who had major heat with Vince to later get into the HOF. I'm sure the HOF isn't an "Anybody can get in deal". Its not like the commentators called The Miz a "future Hall of Famer", but would gladly call guys like The Undertaker and HBK that. Though some inductees are questionable, I don't think their standards are THAT low.

I believe that Owen should be in there, if only Just for the induction speech about the Ribs he played alone

No....he never did that much in wrestling
Bret..even though I hate him deserves his spot
the HOF is basically Vince's Friends Who May or May Not Have Kissed His Ass And It Wasn't Show On National TV Club........some of the people in there now I don't think really deserve it to be honest with you (celebrities should have their own wing....not be lumped in with wrestlers....same goes for managers)
