News On Who May Be Entering 2008 WWE Hall Of Fame

There is a lot of discussion as to who is going into the Hall of Fame this year at WrestleMania. Ric Flair and Mae Young both seem to be locks, but there is a lot of discussion as to the rest of the Hall. Policy is that they try to only induct one deceased member, because they do not want the evening to be a downer. Dusty Rhodes and Jim Ross are pushing big time for Gordon Solie, especially since they are going to be in Florida. If Dwayne Johnson's schedule opens up, they want him there to presumably induct his father Rocky Johnson and Grandfather "The High Chief" Peter Maivia, who passed away in 1982.

why not induct Dwayne himself?LEGOslayer

I'm still pushing for Owen Hart to see the Hall of Fame.lordyousef

While part of me would like to see Owen in there, another part of me says he does not really deserve it. However, than again, with WWE's loose standards, if they are going to allow the likes of Bob Orton, Sgt. Slaughter and Tony Atlas in there, why not Owen?

And, maybe even Stone Cold, since he doesn't wrestle anymore.lordyousef

While I say there are probably other guys who should be inducted in there before Stone Cold Steve Austin, I could understand the logic of putting him in there in the next couple of years. Like Bret, Austin has not really been able to physicially wrestle for the past few years and therefore, is about closest thing to being officially retired as you can get, and still be living.

Plus, not as if he is young-pup anymore. In less than 10 years time, the guy will be in his 50s.
