It's almost that time, so let's see what your classes are using the following guideline.

- Celeb
- Tag Team/Stable
- Diva
- On Air Personality (Manager/Interviewer/GM)
- Superstar
- Headliner

Mine is as followed:

Celeb: Mayweather as it appears they won't ever get Mr. T to do it, and he's by fat the most influential celeb they have had with Trump already going in.

Tag Team/Stable: I'm going nWo as this was WCW country and it seems like if Flair goes in twice so should Hogan quite easily. I have them narrowly beating out the Outlaws.

Diva: I'm going Lita. Trish went in last year and this seems a good place for Lita to go in. She narrowly beats out Sable and Terri for me.

On Air Personality: Teddy Long, the first black wwf ref, a pioneer manager, longest running sd gm of all time, easy choice.

Superstar: We usually get one mid carder who wasn't a headliner but can be remembered like Perfect, ware, and the like. I'm going DDP here personally.

Headliner: The Great One. The biggest wrestlemania of all time, first one to kick off the network, and to me it should be headlined by the most transcendent star ever ... The Peoples Champ, The Rock.

Can't think of a Celeb other than Mayweather so i'll agree with ya on that one

DX as a group would be my stable/tag... as long as they get the whole group

Diva- Yeah Lita should get it, Terri would be choice 2...... wonder if they'd ever induct Woman??

Non wrestler- Paul Heyman ( I know it's not gonna happen, I just want it to)

Superstar- Rick Rude... NEEDS to be in there, Vince has forgiven people for far worse than what Rude did when he showed up on Nitro... this is LONG overdue

Headliner- Randy Savage.. recent interviews with Lanny Poffo lead me to believe that WWE is going to induct Mach with or without the family's consent.... He is the biggest glaring omission from the Hall

Savage and Owen should be but I'm not sure they will be. I guess Warrior could go in as well. I would probably stick with Rock just because its rare to get an open schedule for him

I would prefer Mr. T, I love Mayweather, but to me he should go in before Floyd. I just have to think he's said no or something because the celeb win wouldn't even exist if he hadn't played such a huge role in manias cross over to Hollywood acceptance. If he's not going in to me its Floyd because well he came and worked for them at a time they were deep in shit with Benoit and helped pull them out publicly.

I thought about Heyman too, but part of me wants Heyman to be inducted in California to piss on the grave of xpw. Really want Teddy to be recognized.

Forgot about Rude. Just gave it to DDP because its WCW country and he is vastly underrated IMO.

Another guy I'd think about Shane O Mac for the midcarder or personality slot. He has so many moments that will be remembered. And I doubt Vince puts himself in while he's alive or that Steph places herself, so Shane would be good

Celeb- Think we'll get the guy we don't really want. Be that Fred Durst or David Arquette I think they'll try and keep a bigger name back until they feel they need it. With it being 30 I think they'll feel thats a big enough draw. I just expect left field here.

Tag Team/Stable - I'd go New Age Outlaws probably. Maybe the smoking guns Perhaps the Hollys this one is a bit harder unless they go pre 90s
Diva - They'll attempt Lita you might get Ivy. If you're expecting Savage than you should probably expect Miss Elizabeth here too.
On Air Personality - Paul Bearer maybe redo Captain Lou as the pre 04 stuff seems to not be acknowledged really? Bill Alfonso maybe but I mean how many of these people aren't in a position somehwere WWE wouldn't want to use them at the moment, or haven't already been done as a wrestler?
Superstar - Jake Roberts/ Lance Storm/ Jericho plenty viable names here. Could be Ken Shamrock
Headliner - If the Rock is at Mania he'll be inducted if he's not I'd think this could go to DDP. Not sure we'll get a Savage. I really expect someone of yesteryear filing this spot though.

Celeb - Kevin Federline (best heel in last century IMO, him and Edge got Cena over as a face)

Tag team - Oh? You didn't know? YO ASS BETTA CALLL SOMEBODEHHHHHHHHHHHH

Diva - Don't pay too much attention to women wrestling so dunno who is considered a 'legend'. Hell, Stacy Keibler, because shes the hottest.

On air personality - Shane McMahon. I know thats bending the rules a bit as he has wrestled a lot, but been involved in some of the biggest moments in company history should cover that.

Superstar - Jake Snake, the greatest of all time, the most brilliant comeback since Jesus.

Headliner - Ultimate Warrior, purely because I'm biased, he's one of my faves and I want to see him go off script and start McMahon bashing.

Still think it's too early for Rock to be inducted. And they don't need a big headliner if they can get Savage or Warrior in this year. They can hold him off for a couple years. I still want to see Owen inducted, and this year it is possible. Lita should go in for sure if Trish got inducted last year. Dynamite Kid is another that should go in. The Fabulous FreeBirds for Team/Stable but I'm pretty sure DX is going in this year. Wasn't it like "confirmed" a couple months ago? Paul Bearer needs in too.

Bearer will go in for sure. As for all the other guys you all have listed, Jake DA GOAT Roberts is the only one that I'd really like to see this year.

totally forgot about Paul Bearer... that's a lock..... someone mentioned Miss Elizabeth before, is she not in?? if not then I could totally see them doing Liz and Mach at the same time, as they should..... gotta give @SAIYANS props for bringing up Shane O'Mac, dude definitely deserves to be in there... the shit he did still baffles me... "I'm rich as shit, I'm set for life, and I'm still gonna throw myself off a 30 ft structure cause it'll make for good tv" G.O.A.T!

Celeb: I thought Lauper was already in. If not, this one is (or should be) a lock.
Tag Team: The Outlaws, most definitely.
Diva: Lita
On Air: Toni Schieovani ( I know I didn't spell that one right)
Superstar: ROB! VAN! DAM!
Headliner: Seriously, if it's anyone except The Undertaker, I will be very, very upset.

Celeb: Ali, should happen sooner than later we don't have much time to introduce the G.O.A.T.
Team/Stable: Freebirds/nWo
Diva: Lita
Non-Wrestling: I'd like T-Lo to get his due.

Headliner: Macho or Warrior to just get them out of the way so people can shut the fuck up about them not being in already.

Not if he is still behind the announce booth. It's not like the phasing out of Jim Ross HOF induction.

King got in without being phased out
