There has been a rumor in recent weeks that Carlos Colon would be inducted into the 2012 WWE Hall of Fame class over Wrestlemania weekend. Colon was interviewed by Noticel in PR and said it would be an honor for him to be inducted and be there with the likes of Pedro Morales but nothing was confirmed.

Would you like to see Carlos inducted in the HoF this year?

If yes, who could induct him?

I wouldn't mind Carlito returning Defiant. I wouldn't mind Carlos getting inducted, like Scott said, Primo and Epico should be the ones to induct him.

I think that Carlos Colon should be inducted, it'd be another good addition and there's a lot of empty spots I'm assuming. If guys like Drew Carey can get into the HoF, why not Carlos?

Who should induct him: Primo and Epico, and maybe a one off appearance at the Hall of Fame or a return to the WWE by Carlito.

I'd go Carlito here but Primo & Epico would be great

Epico & Primo should be nowhere near a Hall of Fame ceremony. Carlito is still the bigger name, gotta bring him in.

However as much as Carlos Colon deserves it he didn't wrestle much for the promotions WWE owns footage of which hurts him.

I agree with HomeMalone. I don´t see Epico & Primo inducting Carlos. Best opinion would be Carlito.

I'll have to third what HomeMalone said. I don't think Primo & Epico should induct him, just because they're related to him. Neither are well known names to the point they'll be able to induct their father/uncle into the HoF. Even Carlito inducting him is pushing it.

I'm surprised that he's being considered as I didn't think he had even wrestled for WWE or WCW or something that WWE has footage for, like HomeMalone also said. I don't have any problem with him being in the HoF if the WWE want him in there.

The details are a tad sketchy, but I believe I read that Carlos said he would be willing to allow the WWE to use footage from his promotion on the WWE Network, so I see no reason why they can't use it should he be inducted into the HOF.

As far as him being inducted goes, I know absolutely zero about him other than he's apparently treated like a god down in Puerto Rico after listening to Carlito on the AOW podcast.

So you support him being supported based on what I know but you don't want him voted because you don't know him?

If you're talking to me then I have zero idea what you're on about. I'm neither for or against him going into the HOF because like I mentioned I know absolutely nothing about him other than he's a huge deal down in PR

Would be good to see him going into the HOF, was a big deal back in the day and WWC used to be huge. WWE have done it before where they induct promoters that had successful territories. Primo and Epico would induct him and maybe Carlos can work out a deal to get Carlito back into the company as well.

Why not have all three induct him and give a mini speech on what he meant to them?

That would be good but I see WWE focussing more on Primo and Epico inducting him since they work for WWE and Carlito doesn't. If WWE bring back Carlito then I see him playing a role in the induction, no doubt he will be there on the night anyway I just doubt that he will be involved in the induction.
