Hulk Hogan
This man is the biggest name in the history of professional wrestling. He was probably a household name even before "WWF" was. Therefore, no Hall of Fame is complete without Hulk Hogan. Whether you love or hate The Hulkster, and whether you agree or disagree that he gave a lot to the business, there is no denying that he belongs in the Hall.

Bret Hart
The Hitman's legacy will survive long after his career was shortened by an errant kick to the head. Bret redefined what a wrestler was, proving to Vince McMahon and the modern wrestling world that you don't need to be nearing seven feet tall and be built like a brick sh*thouse to entertain a WWF audience. The Excellence of Execution kept the technical wrestling flag flying high and paved the way for the likes of Kurt Angle and Chris Benoit to succeed today. Bret was a legend in his own time, and deserves nothing less than a place in the Hall of Fame.

I might as well throw my votes in now.

Ricky "The Dragon" Steamboat
Ricky Steamboat is one of the best pure wrestlers of all time.  He's so graceful and comfortable in the ring; wrestling is like second nature to him.  He is so good that he makes it look easy when we all know that it's not.  His classic feuds with Ric Flair, Randy Savage, Steve Austin, and Jake Roberts will not be forgotten.  His WrestleMania III match with WX Hall Of Famer Randy Savage is still considered by many to be the greatest match of all time.  

Rowdy Roddy Piper
The consummate heel!  Hot Rod was one of the original heel icons in this business.  His Piper's Pit show was one of the greatest concepts of the 1980's.  His feuds with Hulk Hogan, Jimmy Snuka, Ric Flair, and more recently Vince Russo were absolute blockbusters.  The man can hold his own against anyone.  On the mic, there is hardly a man that can go toe to toe with Hot Rod.  He's a true gem and a living legend.  Piper is without a doubt Hall Of Fame worthy.

BRET HART

A British guy once said "The Hitman's legacy will survive long after his career was shortened by an errant kick to the head. Bret redefined what a wrestler was, proving to Vince McMahon and the modern wrestling world that you don't need to be nearing seven feet tall and be built like a brick sh*thouse to entertain a WWF audience. The Excellence of Execution kept the technical wrestling flag flying high and paved the way for the likes of Kurt Angle and Chris Benoit to succeed today. Bret was a legend in his own time, and deserves nothing less than a place in the Hall of Fame."
And I agree. :ha:

RICK RUDE

Because he was the man. If you don't know him other than a DX or NWO member, look him up. Buy tapes off of Ebay. This guy was one of the best.

Hulk Hogan
Do I really need to go into detail as to why he should be here? He defined wrestling in the early 90's, even if people didn't like wrestling, they knew Hogan. He truly deserves to be a WX Hall of Famer.

Mick Foley
I know there is a huge debate as to whether Foley really did much for the business. Well I would tell that person to shut up. Foley really IS God. He revolutionised the hardcore wrestling business. IMO, it was because of Foley that ECW was a hit. Not necessarily because he was in it, but because people saw Foley's work, they wanted to see similar stuff. This man gave his whole body and soul to the business, and for what? He didn't do it for the fame, the money...he did it for us. I think Foley should definatley be in the hall of fame.
