I'm pleasantly surprised that they are still doing a class of 2021. I thought they were just going to roll over 2020 and do one class.

And a good choice to start for the class of '21. Agree???

Considering this is the 20th Anniversary of WCW's demise this year, this has a real sense of irony to it....proof that indeed Hell did indeed freeze over.

I read today (well, yesterday now) was also specifically the 20th anniversary of WCW's very last PPV. Despite Bischoff not being involved anymore near the end of WCW, it's still kinda crazy lol

It appears Batista is no longer being advertised for this year's Hall of Fame. His photo and paragraph have been removed from the page.

No clue why, maybe a scheduling issue. Also haven't heard anything about tickets so this year's induction ceremony could just be in front of the Thunderdome screens or a zoom call for all we know. Not saying Batista is big timing them, but maybe he just wants to go in another year with fans lol

There's something funny about Batista being the original headliner and the leaked inductee (one post above) swooping in and potentially taking his spot lmao

Why would Daniel Bryan be the next inductee?

He's planning to retire as a full-time wrestler after Mania.

My theory is this is their way of getting him on a legends deal so he can't sign elsewhere lol

He may get offers from AEW or NJPW that could tempt him to accept or maybe even a return to ROH as a full circle thing. If he does, it would be nice to see him go out as a wwe hall of fame!

 

A legends deal may also interest him though as he would be with wwe in some way and make occasional appearances and maybe even be a part timer wrestler. Perhaps be a coach or something at the PC or for NXT. It would also be cool to see him remain on wwe merchandise such as be a playable character in wwe games but now as a legend

We reported earlier today that WWE had removed former superstar Batista from their Hall of Fame induction page, with many wondering if the Animal not being able to attend this year’s ceremony played a factor in that decision.

According to Fightful Select, that seems to be the case as WWE has told the publication they hope to induct Batista when a full crowd can be in attendance to enjoy it, and for now have delayed his entry into the Hall of Fame. The remainder of the 2020 class, along with the new entrants from 2021, will participate in the ceremony, which will be pre-taped.

The report also addresses the Daniel Bryan situation. The Peacock service labeled Bryan as a 2021 Hall of Fame inductee, but it has been confirmed that this was just an error and there’s no indication that he will be joining this year’s class.
