Happy for Rey, but is this the right time to do it from a kayfabe sense? He will likely be going against Dom in a big grudge match, so Dom likely won’t be able to induct him or even see it in the crowd Imagine Dom will be in the crowd and involved somehow. To promote the match I’d imagine not go up to the stage and hug Rey or anything. Nobody should have to hug a deadbeat Dad.

The Hall of Fame imho is the one event of the year storyline should be left aside.
I've always been a Rey Mysterio fan and am happy to see him go in. However I hope they don't include they Rey/Dom storyline here.
Last thing I want is to see Dom run out and attack Rey Rey mid speech. That's not what the hof is about.

I’d let him do the whole speech as normal and then when they play his music at the end, Dom comes and lays him out. That’d be a great angle while also not overshadowing the show (as that would likely be the end of the ceremony).

I would assume Flair inducts Muta.

I feel like they could make the excuse if Dom is present and participates in any way that he's grinning and bearing it as a favor to his mom or the like, setting it aside for the duration.

I think the heat of Dom still disrespecting his daddy during literally the crowning moment of his career is enough heat on tv without actually touching the hall of fame ceremony.
Shout out to Rey, he a GOAT for sure

I'm guessing Batista's schedule is too busy to get inducted this year. If it wasn't would have expected it announced when they were in DC.

Rey will also be inducted into the Deadbeat Dad Hall of Fame. No ceremony as usual (since they never show)

According to The LA Times, Konnan will be the person to induct Rey. Hopefully while wearing the Max Moon costume.

I think this makes it Konnan's first appearance in the company NOT in the Max Moon outfit.
Stories I heard say he was trying to get signed in late WCW, but introduced himself as "K-Dawg" on the phone so they didn't know who it was.

Has Mick ever talked much about getting along with Sid? In Mick’s first book, Sid is mentioned as a riding partner with Al Snow and Bob Holly but not that they’re best buds or anything. Holly would actually be a more likely guess than Foley as Sid and him were/are genuinely friends; Sid insisted on putting Holly over at a house show when he left in early 1996.

Hopefully Bob Holly is not who Mick is possibly inducting...that would be a massive letdown.

Based on the rumors feel like the one that makes the most sense for Foley to be inducting is Luger, maybe Lillian?

Maybe it's Randy and his injury is career ending. Mick said it's someone he hasn't spoken to in "years and years" so I'm not sure Orton would fit that. They've definitely been in the same place multiple times in more recent times and suwrely spoken. So it's Dixie Carter!

According to The LA Times, Konnan will be the person to induct Rey. Konnnan: “yo, yo, yo let me speak on this. Arriba lá raza! The black and white and wolfpac are talkin about how they’re for life, but K-Dogg is forever! The first time that I ever saw Rey Misterio I was getting my salad tossed in Tijuana, Mexico and I knew he’d be a huge star in this business. So later I was getting my potatoes peeled and I met him-f*** Vampiro, what a bitch!, and after I met Rey I told him that if he rides with me I’ll take him straight to the top, because K-Dogg is a real gangsta and Rey was a real MEXICAN, not like that impostor Kannosuke Takeshita! I went to Easy E and told him that he needed to sign Rey Mysterio and he said “whatever man I don’t even care…let me hit that bong too!” and I knew that I had succeeded, but Rey is too smart so I won’t be able to steal his money like I did with Super Calo. Then Rey went to the WWE and won a bunch of titles or something and now I want to officially induct Rey Misterio into the WWE Hall of Fame!”

I dont think Mick would be who you would naturally call to induct Bob Holly, but I'm struggling to think of anyone you would naturally call to induct Bob. Molly maybe? I wouldnt mind seeing Bob go in though. He was oddly over as Hardcore Holly and was always a totally solid hand. HoF doesnt need to be all main eventers.

There’s speculation about Hardcore Holly?
