He better be. Savage deserves to be the headliner of the Hall of Fame class. He shouldn't be. If you end on somebody who's dead, you're just sending the night out on a downer. Much better to have him toward the end then close on a high-note, especially coming off of last year.

It's safe to say Lanny accepts the induction, perhaps accompanied by Randy's mother and widow. I'd say this is way too obvious for us to even ponder it at this point. The only thing to wonder is if the widow and mother are on stage with Lanny or sitting in the front row waiting for Lanny to point them out.

Much better to have him toward the end then close on a high-note, especially coming off of last year. Next week RAW is in Dallas. If the Undertaker goes into the Hall of Fame this year, that will be the night they announce it. That said, on this one occasion I could see WWE giving Savage the headliner spot out of respect for the Poffo family. The crowd will probably be okay with it. Plus it stretches out the longevity of the Hall. There's a long line of people who have died that should be in the WWE Hall of Fame. If this class helps WWE get over the phobia of inducting dead guys, I'm all for it. Bring on Ray Stevens.

To me, I don't give a rat's ass whether or not he's the headliner, watching Randy Savage in WCW got me into wrestling. I don't care where he is inducted.

They still need to announce a major name who is still alive for the 2015 class. They can't have the biggest name of the night be inducted posthumously. Like in 2006, they inducted Eddie Guerrero, but they needed Bret Hart there to keep the evening from being a depressing, dour, melancholy affair. Only when he's up against a dead person is this the case

Randy Savage is the headliner. He is the guy getting announced before tickets go on sale. His name will be center on the marquee and all the promo for the event.
Just because they may not close the ceremony with his induction, doesn't mean he isn't headlining.

I really hope Lanny and Angelo are being inducted, as per Savage's wishes. Lanny swore he'd always respect that wish.

Well I've been looking to see Lanny's response to Hogan inducting his brother and if Lanny & his father will be inducted and apparently Lanny basically thought about it and finally let WWE win and let them induct Macho in on his own and he's doing it for us fans that have wanted Savage in the HOF all these years. So with that said basically means Lanny nor his father will be getting inducted or more likely neither he or his mom will be there hence why Hogan is inducting Macho instead of his brother.
Here's the clip interview he did with Apter yesterday, apparently they'll do another one after Savage gets inducted.www.youtube.com/watch?v=4UF-OkK_TOg(Not sure how to embed videos here so here's the link to the interview.)

I wish they hadn't shown the clip of him proposing to Miss Elizabeth. There are plenty of other highlights in his career they could have shown without making it awkward for his widow or Elizabeths family.

Hopefully Demolition, Vader & Sid go in this year. Nash won't go in this year due to his arrest. There's some others like Bossman who should go in, but I don't think they'll have more than 1 deceased wrestler per year.

This would make 4 posthumous inductions but whatever:
Savage Elizabeth Honky Tonk Man Vader Demolition Ray Stevens Cyndi Lauper Giant Baba
But I have a funny feeling we're going to get a surprise induction of Rey Mysterio.

The Miz's was a perfect impression.

I wonder who'll be accepting the induction though. Macho's window? Would be kinda awkward if Hogan's inducting Savage AND accepting on his behalf.
