    It is hard to bash any actual professional wrestler in the WWE Hall Of Fame.. even if the wrestler that was inducted was only inducted because they're on good terms with Vince McMahon.. and they're career isn't a "Hall Of Fame" worthy career.. or even if they were inducted.. simply because of their passing.. or because their child has become a huge star in the company etc. Even if the wrestler inducted never actually worked for the WWE.. it is hard to bash any actual wrestler in the Hall Of Fame. Even if the wrestler inducted was nothing than a glorified jobber.. it's hard to bash that wrestler.. who did actually work hard and took a lot of bumps and spent countless years and time away from their families.. although their career wouldn't be classified as "Hall Of Fame" worthy.. at least they were professional wrestlers.. while guys like.. Pete Rose and Bob Uecker are in the Hall Of Fame..

    Pete Rose and Bob Uecker aren't even professional wrestlers.. they weren't referees, broadcast announcers, commentators, managers or anything.. they were none of those things.. they have nothing to do with the professional wrestling industry besides having a few brief cameos.. sure guys like Bobby Heenan and Jim Ross etc. were never actually wrestlers.. but every wrestling fan can agree that they're deserving to be in the Hall Of Fame.. because of their contributions to the WWE.. and the industry of professional wrestling.. and to the young wrestlers they've helped out.. but why..? Why I ask you.. are Pete Rose and Bob Uecker in the WWE Hall Of Fame.. they don't deserve to be in the Hall Of Fame.. it is kind of a spit in the face to deserving legends that aren't in the Hall Of Fame but yet these guys are..

    BQ - It's kind of hard to say who will be inducted into the Hall Of Fame.. there are so many deserving Hall Of Fame candidates.. but the key to being inducted into the Hall Of Fame.. is actually being on Vince McMahon's good side.. so it's hard to tell which wrestlers will be inducted into the WWE's Hall Of Fame this year.. I mean I could go on and on for days about all the Wrestlers who did have "deserving" Hall Of Fame careers that are not in the WWE.. but aren't in the Hall Of Fame because they aren't on McMahon's good side.. but yet guys like Uecker are in the HOF.. for just being choked by Andre The Giant at Wrestlemania... and calling a few matches.. the WWE Hall Of Fame is such a joke..

    BQ2 - Nobody knows what the future holds.. but as if right not I think it is safe to say that both John Cena and Randy Orton have achieved Hall Of Fame level careers.. and their careers are nowhere near over but yet they've accomplished such a high status within the company.. both John Cena and Randy Orton are pretty much guaranteed WWE Hall Of Famers.. I mean just listening to the announcers during their matches tells you the story.. they're already being called future WWE Hall Of Famers.. and who do you think the guy that tells the commentators what to say is..? The man who decides who goes into the HOF himself.. Vince McMahon.. so there is the answer to your question lol.. but nobody knows what will happen between now and when it is time for Cena and Orton to go into the Hall Of Fame..

    BQ3 - I don't think so.. I don't think the WWE is going to induct Shawn Michaels into the HOF the year after he left.. but they might.. honestly I think Shawn is the only one that is really close to going into The Hall Of Fame.. The Undertaker fits into that same category. All the men have had Hall Of Fame worthy careers.. but the thing is we don't know when exactly the WWE is going to induct them into the Hall Of Fame.. I'm going to say this is a false rumour.. because normally the WWE does wait awhile after a Wrestler retires before they make it into the Hall Of Fame.. and Edge, Jericho and Triple H aren't exactly that close to retirement yet.. The Undertaker is the closest to retirement therefore he is the closest to the Hall Of Fame.. but I don't think the WWE is going to induct any of these guys in the Hall Of Fame as early as the next five years..

    Hulk Hogan, Ric Flair, and Pete Rose are all undeserving of being in the WWE Hall of Fame. After all the WWE did for Hogan and Flair, they turn their back on the business and ruin TNA. They ARE both a disgrace to professional wrestling.

    I just don't think Pete Rose is deserving because he is a Baseball legend, and rarely had anything to do with wrestling.

    BQ: Well, since it is WCW-themed in Atlanta, here are a few possible choices: Arn Anderson, Sting (possibly), Bill Goldberg, Ron Simmons, Diamond Dallas Page, and many more.

    BQ2: Yes. They've both been a huge part of the company, and its rising popularity within the WWE Universe. Unless both of them do something controversial towards the business, they ARE guaranteed future Hall of Fame inductees.

    BQ3: True

    Of course, It's Pete Rose.

    Honorable mentions include William Perry and Koko B. Ware

    BQ: I have heard it's going to be WCW Themed - So people like Bill Goldberg, ect...

    BQ2: Well that's what we all thought about Benoit. (In Fact, During his last match Tazz said "Chris Benoit...a sure Hall of Fame inductee in the WWE"). So, Unless Orton and Cena f-ck it up perfectly, they will be HOF Inductees without a doubt - and I wouldn't be suprised if when being inducted they are both accredited as being "The Greatest Wreslters of the Generation" by Vince or someone of that sort.

    Pete Rose, William "The Refrigerator" Perry and "Cowboy" Bob Orton

    BQ: Jake Roberts, Honky Tonk Man, Goldberg, etc, etc....

    BQ2: Yes, no doubt.

    BQ3: Yes, they're all worthy a spot in the HOF.

    Pete Rose, Koko B. Ware, Pat Patterson, Big John Stud, Jimmy Hart.

    BQ: Goldberg, Arn Anderson, HBK and not sure who else.

    BQ2: Yes

    BQ3: True

    Koko B Ware to me is the least deserving wrestler oh excuse me sports entertainer. He was nothing special and was not with the company that long. The celebrities also are unnecessary as well.

  • Pete Rose.

    Why he was inducted sooner than Undertaker & Shawn Michaels is beyond me.
