And are you therefore telling me you feel his achievements aren't good enough to warrant a place in the HOF?
When it comes down to how he achieved them, and when he did it No, he does not.
Are you honestly kidding me? Are you really trying to say his achievements aren't down to his talent and skill as a wrestler?
Yup, because we ALL know that its all down to skill as a wrestler?
If I hear the stupid ratings argument one more time I'll scream. Look at the time Shawn was champion. A time where the company has NEVER seen competition as good as it did in WCW. What is the competition now? TNA? Yeah, that's exactly the same.
You prove my next point I was going to give you, When compared to other stars, Shawn, FLOPS. In my opinion, HBK is nothing more, than a glorified Upper mid-carder. With compitition, Shawn just cant hang at the top. Want examples?
1.) WcW When Shawn had the title, no one watched WWE during that time, eyes were glued upon the screen of WCW, which isnt looking good for Shawn.
2.) Shawn hasnt had a title run since 2002. Your probably going to put up the arguement "He dosent need a title run, its his time to put people over." Its HHH's time to put people over, hes doing a dang good job at staying on top tho, isnt he?
I have to disagree, he has very good mic skills, and a majority of fans agree with that. From his days with the Heartbreak Hotel, to his days in DX, his promos have been great.
DX days he was being carried, a crapload by the likes of HHH (If your talking about his most recent DX run that is.) Put him toe-to-toe with a guy like Chris Jericho, on the mic, he fails, profusely hands down.
*Screams* It's completely naive to look at ratings alone and think that's the bottom of the story. You have to look at things in context here.
Not true. Ratins = Money, Money = good for business. Shawn = No ratings, No ratings = No money, No money = Bad for business.
Seriously, what are you talking about? Ig he's damn good at his job, why doesn't he deserve a post in the HOF? You're contradicting yourself.
Because, not everyone thats good at their job deserves a spot in the HOF. My mother is one of the best teachers in Hamblen County, shes recieved teacher of the year, twice. But guess what, Shes not going to make it into the HOF. Going by what you just said, shes good at her job, and damn good at it, why no hall of fame?
And here you're trying to make it look as if the HOF is full of amazing wrestlers. Do me a favour, look at some of the people who have been inducted, then tell me Shawn doesn't deserve it.
Most of them are Dead, which made them tons of money, idk what it is, but dead people attract money. (example, Eddie Gurrerro/Curt Hennings) The others are mega stars, you shouldn't need examples for that. The others held a great hold on history, and kept a little something alive (examples, The Wild Samoans, the tag team division thrived upon the for YEARS)
