I think Regis Philbin will one day go in the Celebrity wing

[fg]

Think about this.

- Compared to all the talk show hosts, Regis was the only one that had wrestlers on his show regularly regardless whether or not his co-host was a fan or not. Yeah, you can argue that Regis' talk show career has lasted longer than most but still.
- He made an appearance at WM 7.
- He made an appearance at Summerslam '88 as one of the people in the crowd cheering on the Warrior. That is what I read. His appearance is not on the anthology version. I'm not too sure about the Network version.
- There is/was a clip on YouTube of Regis at a live event in 1985 and interviewing Roddy Piper. (You should see how young Regis looked. Back than, his hair was all black.)
- He made an appearance on the birthday episode of Raw via clip with Kelly Ripa
- He made an appearance on Raw via clip around or on the 1,000 episode of Raw

if WWE wants to indict him, they should do it soon while Regis (who is now in his 80s) is still with us.

Any celebrity who made an appearance on a wrestling show will eventually be inducted.

Isn't he like 90? They might want to hurry

I know that Wikipedia is not reliable, but they say that he is 85.

I think Regis would be a great addition to the HOF, but why indict him?

Shocked he hasn't gone in yet, honestly.

I've been demanding this for years, at least ever since Fred Blassie's book was released and the WWE started with inducting celebrities.

Regis was a Fred Blassie fan since his days in San Diego running a small late-night talk show. Even he admits, "If people say Fred Blassie pretty much made my career, they're right. I always had him on my shows because I knew he'd deliver."

"Everything about me is beautiful, except the finger Fred destroyed."

Put the man in.

"Regis Philbin, you have been indicted for having wrestlers appear on your talk show. The mandatory sentence is life in the WWE Hall of Fame. How do you plea?"
