[Dale]

It’s not official yet, but it is expected that “Macho Man” Randy Savage will be announced tonight on Raw as the first inductee into the WWE Hall of Fame’s Class of 2015, WWE.com has learned.

One of the most colorful characters and most popular Superstars in WWE history, fans worldwide have been clamoring for Savage’s induction since the hallowed Hall opened its doors. Even WWE Hall of Famer “Stone Cold” Steve Austin broached the topic in his must-see live podcast on WWE Network with Mr. McMahon just weeks ago. The WWE Chairman said that Savage would “definitely” take his place in the Hall of Fame, though he did not indicate when.

A former two-time WWE Champion, Intercontinental Champion and WCW Champion, the late “Macho Man” also took part in what is considered one of the greatest matches in sports-entertainment history when he battled Ricky “The Dragon Steamboat at WrestleMania III.

The 2015 WWE Hall of Fame induction ceremony takes place on Saturday March 28, the night before WrestleMania 31, at San Jose's SAP Center. Tickets for the event go on sale this Saturday at 1 p.m. ET/10 a.m. PT.

Will “Macho Man” Randy Savage take his rightful place in history and be enshrined in the WWE Hall of Fame? Tune into Monday Night Raw, live tonight at 8 p.m. ET on USA Network, to find out — plus, be sure to watch WWE Network throughout the day for updates on this major announcement!

One of the very best, and a fitting first inductee. If Macho was still around he would steal the whole show all over again. Then again he just might anyway. "OH YEAH, DIG IT!

It's all a ploy so Vince can get in the same room as Savage's daughter and slip her a revenge pork.

I don't know what is the bigger rib: Hogan being the guy to induct Savage or the lines they fed Cole to promote it from "a biter rival to an awesome friend". Pretty sure Savage hated his guts. One thing that Vince Russo said makes sense, that when you hate someone that much, even when you make up, it's not like you become best friends again. Not sure what kind of awesome friend does a Macho impersonation, soon after the guy died, to make him out to be a paranoid ass wipe. That could have been Savage, but there are certain things you don't say about your supposed friends.

Should have promoted them as bitter rivals and former allies as the Mega Powers.

Lanny Poffo picked Hogan to induct him, but what does he know, he was only his brother....WE ARE FANS....we knew him better.

Who knows. Lanny insisted for years he was protecting Randy's wishes to have pops and him included if he were to go in. That went by the wayside. Given the animosity Hulk and Randy had for years, seems like an odd choice from a personal standpoint. Maybe they made up. Hogan put out some tweet that Lanny told him things are exactly as the family and Randy want it, so we'll have to take his word until Lanny has something to say about that.
