I'm wondering if TK will be ok having Adam Cole go into the WWE HOF this year.

Honestly there's only a few names I want to see happen at this point;
Lex Luger Demolition Ax and Demolition Smash Sycho Sid
There's other names you can pick out of a hat, but those are the most glaring in regards to how they're looked at by history.
On top of that, they're still alive.
I'm just to the point that when you wait until after the inductee is dead, despite having a window to induct them, it feels less than underwhelming. Whether it was Randy Savage, Vader or Paul Bearer...people who got bumped for one reason or another, while younger and more current names got inducted instead.
Now that isn't to say I wouldn't want deceased individuals to not be inducted, because there's a wide list of names that pre date the HOF that were long gone. But the Legacy wing is NOT the way to go. That feels especially egregious to someone's actual legacy by shoehorning them in without the proper recognition.

Spitting into the wind here.
The Wyatt Family
I'm guessing they go in as a group? I'm not certain; Bray might headline on his own.
Lex Luger / Ken Shamrock
One or the other gets in. Lex has gained increased screen presence on YouTube with a recent career retrospective and Shamrock supposedly signed a Legends contract.
{Spoiler}{SPOILER: CLICK TO SHOW} "Why don't we have both?" .gif goes here if you're feeling froggy.
William Regal
Can be on television again, heck of an orator, seems like a slam dunk with Triple HAITCH at the wheel.
Earthquake
Long shot. Chances down if Wyatts go in; don't believe too many departed superstars get spots and we'd already be at a few. Maybe in with the Natural Disasters if they want to honor Uncle Fred.
The Midnight Express
Probably the Bobby Eaton/Stan Lane iteration. Old school pick, not in as of yet, tag-team 'rasslin.
Victoria / A.J. Lee
For the love of Pete get A.J. in there before Punk flames out The path is clear for A.J. now. The time was right for Victoria to be inducted last year but c'est la vie.

It should be all three of Eaton, condrey, and lane. And with James. E Cornette going in with them.

It’s long passed time Demolition, Cyndi Lauper and Midnight Express go in.

Demos should but won't. I'd be shocked at Cyndi Lauper. Not when both the WWE and Rock and Roll Hall of Fame are seemingly waiting to see who blinks first.

Isn't Regal already in it?

Leilani Kai - she was a big part of the Richter/Moolah feud, semi-main-evented Wrestlemania I, one half of the Glamour Girls, came back for Wrestlemania X. Among the women, she’s the biggest outstanding name.
Brian Pillman - they weren’t doing HOF inductions when he passed, so he fell through the cracks. With his son now with the company, there’s more of a chance.
Slick - he’s the last of the 80’s era managers who has yet to be inducted.
Giant Baba - a major influence in Japan, as both a wrestler and as a promoter.
Tiger Mask - he was a bona fide pop culture phenomenon in Japan beyond being just a wrestler. His career took off even before Liger’s.

I'm going against the trend here, I hate when they induct wrestlers when the body isn't even cold yet.
My picks are as follows:
Sid, unless softball season is going by then. Vader, my pick for the posthumous inductee. He was literally the best big man I ever saw wrestle. Demolition, they aren't getting any younger and were the biggest tag team for the WWF for years. If you ever question about how over they were, go watch WM6. Crowd was going nuts. Midnight Express with James E. Cornette, to borrow a quote from Roddy Piper, the Rock and Roll Express wouldn't have been loved so much if they didn't have the Midnight to hate so much. It is a shame that Bobby is no longer with us. Cornette could draw heat reading from a phone book.

Vader’s already in as a member of last year’s class. www.wwe.com/superstars/vaderalumniI’m still miffed that WWE didn’t induct him when Sting was with the company.

I’ve always felt that since WM this year is in Philly that it might be heavy on ECW since it’s the home of ECW.
That being said, these are the ECW legends I’d induct this year:
Braden Walker ECW General Manager Tiffany and of course she’s wearing a skirt ECW Zombie

It’s long passed time Demolition, Cyndi Lauper and Midnight Express go in. Cyndi Lauper is a case where it's just that she isn't gonna miss a concert date to appear at the HOF. Don't see her ever getting inducted unless they move the HOF to like a Monday or something.
