It was announced a few minutes ago that WWE has announced the 2nd inductee into the 2016 class of the WWE Hall of Fame. Just in case the title isn't enough to figure out who it is, it's the Godfather, WWE's resident "pimp" during the Attitude Era.
Now I enjoyed his various antics back in the day, never particularly cared for him as a wrestler, but he was a fun character. The problem facing WWE right now is how to incorporate a character known for coming to the ring each week with about half a dozen "hos", who were usually local strippers hired for the night, in a much more PC WWE and society.
The Godfather was a persona and nothing more but we've all seen modern fans via social media get all bent out of shape over far less controversial and provocative angles in recent years. They ignore that it's as scripted as any other show on television, bitch about it on social media and then go watch some chick get raped on the latest episode of Game of Thrones.
