**Spoiler** The Next WWE Hall of Fame Inductee is...

[klunderbunker]

This proves the theory that the HOF isn't legit. Koko has done nothing, I repeat nothing, to warrant this. On Wiki it lists the reasons people get in. Koko's reason: he held several NWA regional titles.

It's kinda funny about a year ago I commented on this youtube video. It was the one with Taker's debut as Survivor series. In the match were Taker, Bret, Dusty, Dibiase, Honky Tonk Man, Greg Valentine and Koko B. Ware. I said something like "Damn this match consisted of nothing but Hall of Famers or future Hall of Famers with the exception of Koko B Ware." Little did I know that he not only would make the Hall of fame but get in before HTM and Dibiase.

 

[NOLUBEZ]

Well it doesn't seem right that he gets inducted, the thing that really struck me as odd is the guy who's inducting him Honky Tonk Man. Seriously shouldn't the roles be reversed here and Koko inducts him....just a thought. It would make more sense but then again the world of professional wrestling doesn't really have to make sense.

 

[hotwater10]

C'mon, They question people like Undertaker and even Mysterio on this fourm...Koko never even had the Championchip.

 

[supergav67]

Could be worse.They could tell him to stay at home & just induct his parrot! Inductee;Al Snows Head ,wot a speech!!

 

[Jane]

I think the best thing coming out of this is it can give new arguments for people saying that they want people who might not deserve it into the HoF.

 

[Legendary_Undertaker]

OMG Koko B. Ware????

whats next the brooklyn Brawler and sebastion Booger?

What about Owen Hart and Randy Savage?

Goddamn you Vince!!!!

 

[Lee]

How the fuck did he even get considered, let alone in?

 

[klunderbunker]

DiBiase
Savage
Sammartino

I think that sums up the HOF in three words.

 

[Sean Valjean]

Now practically any past WWE superstar has a legit chance of getting into the hall of fame.

"Just Joe" for HoF Class of 2010

 

[Scott Free]

Hey, I'm glad it wasn't just Frankie. Did you know Frankie was the first parrot to work in pro wrestling ? A less known fact is that he became part of the booking team after Koko was released, sure, he did only do "Great idea Vince!" but he was part of the growth of the WWE. I heard a rumor that Damien might get in the HOF next. Seriously, the whole thing is getting ridiculous, are the Road Warriors in the HOF yet ? No?...but Koko B.Ware is ?...WTF ???

 

[justinsayne]

DiBiase
Savage
Sammartino

I think that sums up the HOF in three words.

Before they can induct people into the HOF they call them or their family and see if they've accepted the invitation to be inducted, if they turn it down then they don't induct them, add to that that they can't just add every major superstar right away, if they did that they'd run out of inductees for future HOF classes, so as for they three names you mentioned Dibiase will likely be inducted at some point in the future, Savage and Vince have issues with each other that need to be worked out, this is no secret, but seeing as how Bret Hart and Vince were able to work out their differences long enough for him to get inducted I think the same will likely happen to Savage with him beign a major inductee somewhere down the road, and I beleive Sammartino has been extremly critical of the WWE HOF, and may have even stated that he would turn down the invitation if Vince ever offered it to him, though I could be wrong about all that

 

[klunderbunker]

Yeah I get how the HOF works and everything. My point is that without those three, the HOF is a complete joke. If you're down to putting Koko B. Ware in, don't induct anyone.

Bruno has said he wants nothing to do with the company as a whole, which means the day he dies Vince will put him in the next year.

 

[GameOver]

Koko B Ware, wtf?
are u serious, he did next to nothing other than have a cheesy cannon fodder gimmick and sing on the second ever wrestling abulm "Piledriver"

There are countless more people that would be better suited.
where could i start?

Big Boss Man, Rick Martel, Dynamite Kid, Haku, Hacksaw Jim Duggan thats just a handfull of people from that era that were far more impactfull

 

[TakeAdooKie]

Ok, Koko may not be the best candidate, or even a good one, but they have asked worse people to be inducted...and some of them even said no! Just a day or 2 ago I read here at WZ.com that MR.T was invited but declined. I would take Koko over MR.T anyday.

 

[milenniumman8]

I could name AT LEAST 50-100 guys I'd put into the HOF before KoKo Freakin B Ware!! There are some amazing talents not in yet but this guy is? You guys mention people like Savage,Dibiase,Jake,Sammartino,Owen,Road Warriors. What about guys like Arn Anderson, Tully Blanchard, Barry Windham, Demolition, Lex Luger, The Fabulous Freebirds, Sid, Bossman, Rick Rude, Rock N Roll Express, Midnight Express, Larry Zybysko, Brian Pillman, The Rock, Goldberg, DDP, Vader, Ole Anderson, Magnum T.A., British Bulldogs, Brutus Beefcake, Tommy Rich, I could go on and on!!

I think what this all boils down to is who is willing to bend over and kiss Vincey Pooh's ass. If you don't bow down to the almighty Vince he is gonna screw you over no matter how great your career was! I always looked forward to the announcing of the HOF classes b/c it would bring guys from when I was a kid back into the spotlight for a bit, this is KoKo B. Ware shit is just a joke. Who's next, The Gobbly Gooker? The Goon? Golga? Damian Demento?

 

[kingkong317]

Personally I think Koko was put in as more of a lifetime achievement type of recognition. For me, he was a staple in the 80's and one of the greatest main enhancement type talents of all time, and probably the only one who had some good matches on ppvs even though he lost all the time.

Next to the hall: Honky Tonk Man, Owen Hart, British Bulldogs, Rick Martel, Randy Savage, Big Boss Man, Elizabeth, Ted Dibiase, U.S. Express, and Rick Rude....Just a few champions, legends, and above all memorable staples from the glory days.

 

[Bernkastel]

The WWE is scrapping the bottom of the barrel with Koko. He's just filler, there to fill the timeslot. Austin is the real draw of the ceremony, His induction could very well go an hour by itself.

 

[ZEUS]

Koko was never used as a main eventer, best case scenario a mid carder, but often a glorified jobber. That said, he was one of the best pure workers of the era, and had a great gimmick that kids loved and really got him over. He was always booked to lose, but that was because of his size, but he could work very well, and had a great following. If he was 5 inches taller and 20 pounds heavier, he would have been a multi time IC champion.

 

[atm1982]

Yes he was a mid carder...correction LOWER mid carder, but Koko was popular in the 80s. Maybe im showing my age here, but i actually remember Koko getting some big pops in his time. I also remember whole crowds flapping their arms along with him when he entered. So im guessing that while his wrestling record isnt the best, it is his personality and work ethic which is getting him inducted.

In saying all that id rather see Rick Rude or Ted Dibiase get inducted. Maybe even get Ted Sr involved with Jrs match at Wrestlemania. Id love to see that!

 

[Slowdude]

Did anyone notice on last weeks smackdown and on this weeks raw they were playing Glass Shatters by Disturbed when showing the current people being inducted (before announcing the new person).

 

[Y 2 Jake]

What's wrong with Koko B. Ware? He'll get a better reaction than Bill Watts, he's more intresting than Dory Funk and Frankie was more popular than Steamboats dragon.
