According to Mean Gene.
Well this is interesting...maybe Savage's brother was telling the truth? Maybe Savage wanted his whole family inducted.
Legendary wrestling broadcaster "Mean" Gene Okerlund joined Inside The Ropes this past Thursday and divulged that the late Randy Savage declined WWE's multiple invitations to join their Hall of Fame.
When asked why the "Macho Man" isn't in the Hall, he responded, "Are you telling me that the WWE hadnt made an overture to Randy about being in the Hall of Fame? Thats BS. They asked him many times and he declined. For whatever reason, thats what Im still trying to figure out."
Okerlund also gave his thoughts on Savage's rival Ultimate Warrior.
"He did have a look, thats about as far as it goes. He couldnt talk, he sure as hell couldnt work in the ring, that was very marginal. I think one of the worst matches Ive seen in my life was between Warrior and Papa Shango. What a disaster of monumental proportions," he said.
Okerlund also explained how WWE's pay-per-view frequency has changed the promotion.
"I personally think we have way too many pay-per-views," he says. "I dont think we get the chance to adequately develop the storylines with the guys and gals between pay per views. Id like to see us down to about eight pay per views a year."
In this ninety-minute interview, Okerlund explains the real reason he went to WCW in 1993, his views on "Rowdy" Roddy Piper not being given enough credit for WrestleMania, hating an angle Vince Russo scripted him and more. Visit insidetheropes.podbean.com
