9.5 years, but I don't want to nitpick.

Are you really saying that becouse its been so many years since he died he should be inducted into the HOF? Right.... so if Santino Marella died tonight in 2019 he will be inducted into the HOF?

Owen should be inducted. He'll make up the numbers, and unlike most of the inductees he'll get a solid reaction.

No,It does sound like i said that but i meant Owen deserves to be in the HOF for his wrestling career but should be inducted this year as it is 10 years ago since his death.

He should def be in there, and this year being WM25 and 10 years since, seems like the most logical. People would only ask why they didn't do it in '09, if they did it any year after.
