He is also a racist pos.

Saving people from a fire suddenly makes people HOF worthy?

@@Rjensen2 thats not what I said. Go back and read the whole thing..saving kids from a fire definitely makes him a hero and like I said, he was one of yhe best big man in the business. Maybe even the best in his time..all that together makes him a hall of fame..

"You don't get more hall of fame worthy than that" After not going into his career beyond "one of the best big men of all time" jazz. But then again, I noticed you didn't use punctuation, so I should have realized what I was dealing with.

@@dustincongello5802 "All that together" Again, how does saving some kids from a fire add into whatever hall of fame credentials he may have?

That's what he was supposed to do

@@MightMouse2174 What wonderful logic you have. In that case, Hogan, Rock and Stone Cold are all mid because they were simply doing what they were supposed to do.

​​@@byeboppwhat a wonderful logic you have but we not talking about Hogan, Rock and Stone Cold !!! A guy who does it professionally ( Bamm Bamm ) is supposed to carry a non wrestler ( LT ) and make them look good

you do know theres alot of ex nfl guys wrestling right

He's also a hero, saving them kids from that burning building and all. God bless you Bam Bam. RIP

i once met the living legend bruno sammartino what a great guy may he rip.

@@user-jt2fw5wk7z i've met the late great bruno sammartino the late great junkyard dog along with paul orndorff big john studd along with the hulkster and many many more i worked at the phoenix air port they were all really nice guys but john studd was the nicest by far. may he rip

​@@user-jt2fw5wk7z We were just two dudes taking a flight and I didnt want to be a douche... we talked a bit more than that, about why i was taking the flight and why he was taking the flight. Told him I was at his halloween havoc match in 95 and he told me he remembered the rolled up t-shirt (which I caught pre-broadcast) that my brother threw at him. We just talked like 2 strangers that had things in common.

💯

How is that HOF worthy?

@@Rjensen2 he saved people from a burning home. The WWE has something called the Ultimate Warrior Award. Its no different from what Bam Bam did

@@terrrell7798 The Ultimate Warrior Award(as if anybody with sense would accept it) was not intended for that. And "great humans" don't abandon their own children.

@@Rjensen2 who said he abandoned his children. I don't see any reports saying he did, except you.

Was about to post this, I think he will go in and it'll revolve around a storyline too somewhere with him. The loose Canon gimmick was brief but amazing, such a shame we didn't see a healthy loose Canon pilman in the height of the attitude era, what could have been

He doesn't deserve the hof

@@AggravatedMan365 I never bought into his gimmick.

The Hollywood Blonde Brian Pillman Jr

Wasn't he in WWE for only a year?

I remember years ago, my ex wife was watching big brother, and I'd watched a few episodes with her. I told her that one dude kinda looked like psycho sid vicious, and she had no idea who that was. Turns out, it was sid's son.

Ikr, he main evented Wrestlemania twice, won the Big gold twice and was a royal rumble runner up, dude DESERVES to be in the HOF.

Sid is taking this too seriously, koko b ware & chris Von Erich are in, lol. WWE hall o fame should be a lock barring a real life scandal

@@bfg5291 He was a great athlete, I remember that guy,....Frank Eudy

Yeah I remember how ridiculously over he was, his entrances, fist bumping the fans was awesome. It’s kind of a head scratcher why Vince won’t put him in. He had those 2 appearances on raw in 2011 or 2012 I believe, so it’s anyone’s guess why he’s not in. Only thing I can think of is the arn anderson incident 🤷🏾‍♂️

It's personal

He's turned it down numerous times, because he actually thinks he has another run in him. 🤣🤣🤣

Softball Hall of Fame 😂

@geminiseason6901 lmfao😂😂guy loves his Softball cus he can hit a home Run like Barry Bonds on Steroids...he prob counts them and everything 😂😂

I remember ten or so years ago him a Scott hall we're trying to pump him for another run. The he looked like a complete stiff against heath slater. Could barely move.

What does it matter? You do know that they didn't actually win those titles, don't you?

And the only reason Jackie was in the business was because she was Jeff Jarrett's longtime mistress/girlfriend.

@@Rjensen2 I’m just basing it off the video saying that chyna is the only female winning a singles men title. Sure whatever that makes your dick stand why bother commenting on this when it’s a predetermined outcome. We all know this is just entertainment.

I'm glad someone pointed this out

@@Rjensen2Damn she was a lowkey swirler too smh

See? It doesn't matter if they ever put these people in. People like this guy will still whine about it.

He was a dangerous worker, who didn't respect his colleagues .

Truly tragic. Vader totally deserves a spot. Arguably the best big man to ever be in the ring.

@@amphetamean66X 🤣🤣🤣 He is. And if he wasn't, it's not exactly tragic.

i agree with you what good does it do to put someone in the hall of fame after their death if they can't enjoy it.

Christian will be when he retires.

Blame Martha

@@XavierGage You can't really blame her. She's a wife and a mother who never got past what happened and who could blame her! The impact it had on her life is bigger than wrestling. Can't point fingers at her.

@@jaxonjaxoff3291 I hope that's not soon though. Wrestling was taken away from him for 7 years. I hope he makes up for it and then more. Sting, Jericho and Billy Gunn are older than him and they're still going strong. I hope he keeps going for many more years.

Add Demolition to that list

When AEW has a HOF, Owen will definitely be inducted there.

I don't think even Nancy Benoit is in Hall of Fame. She has done so much for the industry since Early 90's until her unfortunate & brutal demise

I was thinking the reason Lux Luger was not in the HOF was because everyone blamed him for Miss Elizabeth untimely death which makes sense why she is not in the HOF.

Elizabeth needs to join Randy in HOF

Yeah, she was great at standing there clapping. She ruined absolutely everything the moment she opened her mouth. How is that HOF worthy?

@@Rjensen2 I agree with you but the WWE has put people in there HOF for less which is saying something.

That's why I probably will skip this vid. I like a lot of his vids but some topics he either lies or is misinformed on some topics.

Yeah I thought that myself and knew the reason before he mentioned it! I think it’s well known too. RIP Owen heart

​@terryboswell9290 even if you believe that, it doesn't mean that WWE is "snubbing" him from the HOF. His wife isn't allowing them to induct him.

​@terryboswell9290Owen accidentally killed himself when he released the harness while fixing his suit.

⁠@@eshai27still wwe’s fault for cutting corners in a obviously dangerous stunt to save seconds from this intro.

Yup

Facts!!! Break The Walls Down still one of my favorite theme songs and one of my favorite performers in WWF era

Kane is in the HOF.

Dude! Golddust! What a weirdo! And Kane!! King Kong Bundy was awesome! Ah..those were the days...

How is saving people HOF worthy?

maybe it's because he died from drugs a lot of the people on this list died from drugs not saying it's right but that's the way it is. mcmahon probably doesn't like drugs

Don’t mind Rjensen. He’s had his head up his arse for so long that nothing but the team of the finest surgeons in history will rectify that problem.

​@Rjensen2 it happened to Shad

​@@elijahallen4974no use fighting with them bc any comment I see about bam bam saving these kids they comment on it tryna preach he doesn't deserve to be..

Someone told me he is in AEW now. If that’s the case, it will be a while before he gets the WWE nod.

I feel like it's because his schedule hasn't been cleared for him to participate in the HOF, maybe next year

It's because he got his bellybutton tattoo covered up

He is busy, and has plenty of time , and most likely wants to headline the year he gets inducted.

@@yaseen9044 He was due to go in this year again but was busy filming at the time and couldn’t do it

There's time

Because he was a hack. Nothing more than a glorified jingle writer.

@Rjensen2 Nonetheless, he played an important role in the WWE's presentation for 32 years until he got replaced by CFO$. "Glorified" to whom? He made iconic themes that last for Austin, Taker, Hart, HHH, and The Shield. Talented is what I see that, in fact, a whole 3 disc set songs to back that up (eventhough he made many before). Do you know what the title of the album is?

@@GMoneyXL1969 Glorified to people such as yourself, obviously. And those themes you mentioned are very, very basic tracks. The Austin one in particular is the most basic riff imaginable. It makes CC DeVille seem like Yngwie Malmsteen.

@@GMoneyXL1969 What does it matter if I know what the albums are called?

@Rjensen2 Songs are synonymous with certain wrestlers. I'm sure they are grateful for Jim composing their music. You haven't gotten lucky for three decades. It's something that you have people like to keep you around. It may be "basic" but people still enjoy his music till this very day no matter what you or anyone else say.

He’s also only WWE Winged Eagle champion, not in Hall of Fame, every holder from Hogan to Austin is in but Sid

And first to win WWE championship on Raw

For what? Being one of the Worst champions of all time?

Chyna is in the WWE Hall of Fame but as a member of D-Generation X

@@c8a6lvinshe deserves a solo induction. She paved the way for Lita and Trish and they are who helped propel the women’s division

Demolition needs to be in too

Bret wants Owen in but his wife is holding a grudge that Owen would see as being silly

@@andrewft31You think Owen would want the guys that caused his death to profit off his name?

Right?!

The one celebrity that I will fight everyone tooth on deserving to be in the HOF is Andy Kaufman. He actually worked a pretty long program in Memphis and was part of a nationally known feud when such a thing was unheard of. And the slap itself is noteworthy in television history as a whole.

His "BAH GAWD KING!" is legendary.

He’s been in the Hall for 15 years now

Vince was never a fan of Christian, I doubt he'll make it into the HoF until Vince is completely done with the picture.

@@the2tum Vince held him down from getting the proper main event push that he deserves. But that doesn't mean he's not a Hall of Famer. I can't see anything stopping Christian from eventually being inducted. Many wrestlers that didn't contribute a fifth of what he did in WWE only got inducted! It's definitely happening eventually.

@@alaooooy7 But Vince has the ultimate say though, if he says Christian isn't worthy then that's that. I think once Vince gets 100% out of the picture, we're gonna see a good number of worthy HoFers get in.

@@the2tum Not everyone in the hall of fame was pushed to the moon by Vince! Jake Roberts is in the hall of fame and Vince never put one title on him! The fact that Christian wasn't pushed on top enough by Vince doesn't mean that Vince wouldn't want him inducted.

​@@the2tumyour so pathetic Vince actually liked Christian and actually used to praise him he really knew he was a goat,of course he is getting induced as a headliner that's a guarantee. If you asked Christian he would laugh at you if you said Vince didn't like him, honestly pathetic he gave him a job when retired for god's sake he spent 2 decades there . Maybe listen to Christian and not gossip

YES ! YES ! YES!

Gonna have to take a hard yes to that as well. 😉💯

Also Victoria, Nation Of Domination and why not RTC

You right

Christian in AEW will never happen. He'd have to retire and come back to WWE first.

Christian hasn't retired

🔵

Christian and edge tag team yes.

THIS!!

Very well said. I agree. Owen is certainly deserving to be in the Hall Of Fame but I also understand where Martha is coming from.

I think AEW should induct Owen whenever they start a HOF. They already have a memorial event in Owen’s name with Martha’s blessing, so I am sure she would oblige them if they ask her when the time comes.

It would be great if an independent Wrestling Hall of Fame was created and did inductions annual like the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame does. No "they working for the competition stuff." No "we have to worry about our image". Just "this person was a good wrestler and positively impacted professional wrestling." The biggest issue is finding a committee to do it. People like Meltzer and Cornette, who know the business and know history also seem to be kind of stubborn these days. Or you know the fans could support the independent hall of fame that already exist.

100% him not carrying the strap was a missed opportunity

Great shout. He was a big player in Wrestlings greatest era. Very deserving

Guys like Ken Shamrock, Test, or even Chris Benoit won’t ever be in the hall of fame. But should. It’s unfortunate that WWE is not giving credit where credit is due. Especially ruining big name talents when they let Brock Lesnar face Undertaker at Wrestlemania. When it should’ve been against Kane, and a dream match vs Undertaker and Sting. Or John Cena winning one or two more world titles to tie or pass Ric Flair. Then there’s the situation with WWE also ruining The Fiend into his Bray Wyatt persona, is another reason why WWE Doesn’t look at the bigger picture. If WWE wants to capture fans more they should create more meaningful ideas, instead of making things repetitive. Do people want to see something new and something that we’ve never seen before. Or Do people want to keep seeing Brock Lesnar come back? Because I’m telling you it’s a FACT nobody wants to see the same thing over & over.

If Bruno Sammartino could be inducted after hating Vince for decades by reaching an agreement then Shamrock can find a compromise to be in the WWE Hall of Fame.

Yeah I agree completely

Bundy for sure. Heyman will get in but he's still active.

@@Gamebox27 So is Rey Mysterio and he got inducted this year.

Really good shout. Victoria deserves it big time especially as she was part of that group with Trish and lita that helped put womens wrestling back on the map

After leaving in ‘09, and signing with TNA. She openly criticized and bashed the WWE. Causing, a rift between the two. But, after she had left Impact, the first time. She, again. Was asked to compare the two. At which point she stated she enjoyed her time in WWE more than TNA. She retired from full time wrestling, and just did random appearances for independent promotions. Up until a few years ago, and now she just does convention appearances. She must be on good terms now. Cause, she was seen in the wrestler section. At both Molly and Torrie’s HOF inductions. Along with Christy Hemme. But, with her recent surprise appearance at Impact, recently. It’s hard to tell.

😂😂😂

Jazz

@@huffy6192 Never say never. That seems like far less of a serious sin than throwing the women’s championship belt in the trash on the rival company’s program when the company whose belt you just threw away didn’t even know you jumped ship, which is what Alundra Blayze did, and she still got her HOF induction.

Rey Mysterio is an active wrestler and was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame.

Ivan Koloff too

From what I heard, Rick Martel isn’t interested because he has left wrestling behind completely. Considering the fact that it would be a payday for Martel, it would be nice to see him accept the accolade, get his money, and then leave it behind for good.

Owen can't because of his wife

@@hoan-pi5dx ..I know that whole story..

@@hoan-pi5dx it's perfectly understandable why she won't allow it however it's great to see Owen getting recognition through AEW.

He shouldn't be in the HOF, because his family doesn't want him in, and that's their choice to make, not ours.

I understand why she won't let them, but Owen deserves to shine one more time one more night. Give him the ending he truly deserves.

Agreed

They could even charge people would still go see it hell make a whole museum and the Hof could be the in the middle they should do it

@@DankHunt420 true

​@@DankHunt420Yep, they have that WWE warehouse where they keep all sorts of shit they have used in the past. Props, old sets, signs, old titles, everything. They even have that custom belt with the bull on it they made for the rock and never ended up using. They have videos from WWE of them checking that place out. Put that stuff in a WWE museum and have the HOF there as well, I would check it out.

The Hart family has continually supported Owen being inducted since Bret was inducted. Even when The Hart Foundation was inducted. But Owen’s wife absolutely refuses to allow his name and likeness to be inducted because of what happened in how he died.

His wife doesn't want it

I hope his widow would see things differently. No one else deserves to be in the HOF as much as Owen now.

@@Ultradude604 the wwe made her a widow and left their children without a father. After that happened they continued the pay-per-view

@@quarf53206 I am aware of all that... I knew of that as it happened... It was an accident... Owen's family got paid... I know that would never bring him back... but it is what it is... Make the best of it... Honor him

Joe Jackson was on the infamous 1919 black Sox that threw the series. Nobody from that team deserves to be in the hall. If Pete Rose won’t be put in there’s no way in hell a team that was paid to throw a World Series when baseball was really the only professional sport in America at the time. Cities lived for their teams and it was such a stain on the game. The whole kid saying “say it ain’t so joe” is referring to a kid saying that verbatim to shoeless joe Jackson after the news got out and all he could do was hang his head in shame. There have been players banned from cooperstown for way less.

@@LuckyStrike01 Joe Jackson maintained his innocence until the day he died, and the evidence against him was circumstantial. Plus he couldn't read or write and got railroaded by the White Sox and by baseball.

Completely agree. She brought a big mainstream audience with her making Wrestlemania feel truly special

Very arguably. She was an untalented flash in the pan. And she didn't last long.

@@Rjensen2She didn’t need to be to be considered in the celebrity wing.

​@@JaxPillow-qf3vm yes, 2014

Lauper was the Rock in Rock and Wrestling. If Drew Carey and Snoop are in Lauper definitely should be.

wwe doesn’t deserve to glorify someone they got killed in a fake hall of fame. thankfully his wife finally found it in her to forgive pro wrestling (NOT WWE) and give aew her blessing to continue on his legacy. as long as we as fans remember him, we don’t need him in no hall of fame.

@@gonewithgonzo8563 well that is one opinion, but I disagree and think the accident was just as much his fault as the WWE. They both should have checked the equipment before its use.

I agree. Big Show, Kane and C.M. Punk are the only three who ever held the ECW, WWE and World Hewvyweight championships, and Christian deserves that for sure as well. WWE is the only championship he is missing from that list, and it’s a real shame that was kept from him.

It's kinda weird when that's her reason 😂 like she just don't want to admit that she still have beef with WWE.

Well yes its explained in the video that she blames WWE for his death. AEW is not WWE so why would she have a problem with them.

​@@danield11711absolutely correct. I wrote this somewhere else but, I suspect when the evidence came in as to how that accident happened? Pretty sure she made up her mind. Negligence tends to make people upset.😒

@@Persephone715 also the fact that they continued the show

Weird that you don’t understand why she’s okay with people who she doesn’t believe responsible for killing her husband.

too soon. many big starts have gone into oblivion in this industry

He should end up a 2 time HoF. 1 on his own and one as part of E & C

Mickie will probably be inducted after she leaves Impact or retires.

Benoit is in the Wrestling Observer Newsletter HOF. I think we should just be happy he gets to be there and accept that a WWE nod will never happen. It would be too much bad publicity for them if they went back on that.

Jesus. What ghouls.

And Owen

@@michaelpaiva9924 I would have said him too, but I believe his wife should give her blessing.

Because of what he did to Miss Elizabeth.

@@c8a6lvin what he do

@@c8a6lvin he didn't do anything, she made her own choices.

​@@grumpywolfgaming👍

I used to disagree with Martha about this, but ever since the “Dark Side Of The Ring” episode that covered Owen’s fall, my mind has changed. I hope he will appear in some AEW video games alongside the tournament they currently host, since they have a good relationship with Martha.

Wrestling fans will never understand, id be the same way if i was her

So you want WWE to risk losing sponsors and other partners only to have a murderer in HoF ? And if you want to spread awareness of concussions there are many other wrestlers

@shivathedemonkiller964 yes. The worst thing that ever happened to The WWE was when they became a publicly traded company. They stopped taking risks, became boring and trite. Chris Benoit was undeniably a phenomenal wrestler and even his son wants to follow in the footsteps of his career. Forgiveness is a beautiful thing and it is better to focus on the good in people rather than on the evil. "Before you speak of the splinter within your neighbors eye, remove the plank from thine own eye." What Chris did was terrible but they were not the actions of a man who was sane. He was not a "monster" but a sick man who was denied the treatment he obviously needed by a company that to this day refuses to accept responsibility for their complicity in his actions. They owe it to the memories of his wife (who also deserves induction) his son and him to not only recognize his greatness but also his sickness. Ignoring him and erasing him only shows how pathetic and greedy The WWE has become. Hopefully when Vince truly steps away, whoever takes over will rectify this.

@@AdamAtrocity17 Bullshit. Plenty of wrestlers have had serious cases of CTE. They killed themselves. He murdered his wife and child. Fuck him. And GTFOH with the whole don’t judge someone because you have sin bullshit. I am not perfect, but I’ve never hurt a child let alone murder one so I’m quite comfortable saying I’m a better human being than Benoit. I don’t know what happens in the next life, but I hope Benoit is miserable wherever he is.

I get what you're saying but there's no way WWE will ever put Benoit in the HOF that incident will forever overshadow everything he has done in the wrestling business which is a real damn shame if it didn't happen there's no doubt he would have been in the HOF by now or at least soon

@@danday9697 it will never happen but I'd be happy even seeing him make it on by himself. Because you're right with or without Spike the dudleys will be the Dudley's. But he still put his body threw alot and was over when he was there.

​@walkinducks they're still active wrestlers.

Oddly, they no longer induct older guys

Gail Kim despises WWE so that will probably never happen.

Horsewomen? Who’s that? I only know of the legendary 4 horsemen

But she wasn’t truly memorable in wwe. And this is coming from a fan of her. While she is one of the greatest women wrestlers of all time, she was underutilized in WWE. Everything revolutionary she’s done was in TNA/Impact. That and also the fact that Gail is not fond of WWE
