I think its just the only way for them to have two faces interacting with each other physically. I agree that they should turn him heel, and I HOPE so badly that they do, but last night's Raw for me was an indication that he won't be. There were plenty of opportunities for him to turn heel last night and he didn't. Even in the closing moments, he didn't get physical with Bryan until Bryan did first. Hopefully I'm wrong.

I'd love to see Heyman turn on Brock at Mania and side up with Reigns.

I don't think the heel turn would happen on a Raw anyways. They'd do it at Fastlane or Mania.

I like the Undertaker just fine. But lets be honest, his in ring performance is nearly sad at this point. His character is still great, but you know that when/or if he has to get in the ring its disappointing.

I am by no means dogging on Sting, I simply was just never a big fan of his. And this move by the WWE seems like they are phishing for ratings.

I think it's more of a fitting goodbye. Sting is an icon, perhaps "The Icon" and deserves a real exit from pro wrestling. He wouldn't have gotten a fair goodbye from TNA.

Sting, while old, isn't quite as decrepit as Hogan and/or Flair at a similar age. He couldn't do an "Ironman" style match, but he'll hardly need Triple H to carry him through a 15-20 minute match.

If Rikishi is a HoFer, where's Brutus Beefcake? Where's Adrian Adonis? Where's Earthquake, Tugboat, and One Man Gang?

Seriously, no offense against Rikishi, but his biggest move was the stinkface.

Im not taking up for Rikishi, but Hogan's biggest move was a leg drop. Id much rather face that leg drop than that big ass.

It's another guy that had some animosity with WWE, but someone I think deserves a nod is "The Beast of the East" Bam Bam Bigelow. Man was big, but agile in his prime.

In RL, he once saved three kids from a fire, suffering 2nd degree burns over a large part of his body.

Sad that he's another wrestler that turned to drugs for pain relief.

More impressed by Lex body slamming Yoko.

a bigger feat probably, but the moment and set up for Hogan just makes it bigger imo. Basically, the fact that Hogan had already slammed Andre, took away from Lex slamming Yoko. They kind of set up Yoko getting slammed.

I could be wrong, but I think Bam Bam got his start in Lawler's Memphis promotion.

True, Hogan was not a great wrestler, but he put wrestling on his back and took it to amazing heights based of his character. I mean, he had his own freakin' Saturday morning cartoon. He popularized wrestling like it had never been popularized before, which alone itself is worthy of his being in the HoF. Rikishi's getting in on family name. Next year it'll probably be Umaga. Vince loves the Anoi'a family.

And while I'm on the subject of the HoF, despite the circumstances of their break up, how can you induct Macho Man and not induct Miss Elizabeth?

Due to their circumstances there's no way to induct them together. And can you imagine the backlash from inducting Miss Elizabeth? Then you also get the Benoit faction freaking out that he's not in.

Miss Elizabeth killed her own family? I must have missed that. When did that happen?

There's already a large faction every year that gripes that Benoit isn't even getting considered. Adding Miss Elizabeth to the HOF will only ratchet that faction up further. That's all I meant.

I don't see how. There's plenty of managers in the HoF. That's what she was. Nowadays they may like to call a woman manager a valet, but she was Macho's manger and was introduced as such when he entered the WWF/E.
