Backlund, Foley and Booker not getting inducted on TV

[Stopspot]

This year's one-hour WWE Hall of Fame special will air next Tuesday, April 9 at 10:00 p.m. ET on the USA Network. Dave Meltzer noted on last night's episode of Wrestling Observer Radio that only the inductions of Bruno Sammartino, Trish Stratus and Donald Trump would be televised.
Here is the updated 2013 Hall of Fame class and their inductors:

* Bruno Sammartino, inducted by Arnold Schwarzenegger

* Trish Stratus, inducted by Stephanie McMahon

* Donald Trump (TBA)

* Mick Foley, inducted by Terry Funk

* Bob Backlund, inducted by Maria Menounos

* Booker T, expected to be inducted by Stevie Ray

Foley getting screwed by the E again? Wasn't he originally supposed to headline this class? Now he's not even getting inducted on TV.

Trump on TV over Foley? ity2:

Hopefully just dirtsheet bullshit.

 

[GrammarNazi82]

What they said. Hoping this is just typically bad Meltzer / dirtsheet reporting and nothing more. Would be a shame for Foley's induction to not even air.

(Cute sidenote: On Twitter Foley has been saying that he's invited Santa Claus to the HOF.)

This is a bunch of bull. Everyone in this class except Trump deserves to br on TV.

Trump over Foley and Booker T?

Fuck that shit...

 

[Laura]

Wow, that sucks. Foley deserves recognition more than anyone on that list. Well, aside from Sammartino. But Trump? Ugh.

Backlund off TV? :bury:

 

[CM Punk]

People are still mad about Trump? ity2:

 

[Cloud]

Wtf? Utter joke if true.

 

[Swift]

Lol if this is true.

Hope that's not the case, beyond lame for Foley and Booker if so.
