I know we have a sports section but given his wrestling background, wanted to put this here to celebrate an amazing accomplishment. So glad this happened while he's still alive.

Never mind that shit, HOF, here comes Mongo! I know for copyright and swearing, they couldn't put that Blazing Saddles line in as the intro to his theme. But god damn, that would have been great. Hell, I would have loved it if there were two guys cutting promos on each other in the ring, and as Mongo was coming in to attack one of them from behind, the other dropped that line. |

Different HOF, but it was a bummer when they didn't induct Vader under after he had passed.
You've just gotta feel happy for the guy with all he's going through.

Funny fact, I think Mongo is the 2nd Bear in the HOF that's won a pro wrestling title! With him being a former WCW US Heavyweight Champion and all.

I always had a soft spot for Mongo. I felt he did his job alright. Only criticism I ever had for him back in the day was I wish they gave him better attire. But man, was Debra a heat magnet for him. Great stuff.

I'm glad that he's getting this honor while he's still with us. He was quite a player on one of the great defenses in NFL history.

I'm actually a Mongo mark. It's nostalgia for me from when I first got more into wrestling during the Monday Night Wars. Good for him.
