I think Sammartino had some issues with Vince Jr., as he keeps refusing being inducted into the HoF because he doesn't like the path wrestling has taken. Backlund I have no idea why he's not there, I heard some rumors that he wanted one more run so he refused the induction but I don't think that's legit.

He's better than Drew Carey, Pete Rose, and Koko B Ware

Of all the reasons to hate on the WWE HOF the celebrity thing is the weakest. It's not like anyone considers them to be legitimate HOF'rs, and the celeb portion of the HOF is a separate entity. It's a publicity stunt by WWE, nothing more.

The WWE HOF has made plenty of awful inductions and has dozens of head scratching snubs, no need to harp on the celebrity thing anymore than the average mark already does.

I understand that, I have no problem with the celebrity wing if they have contributed to wrestling. Cindi Lauper, for example, love her or hate her, brought a fuck ton of publicity and main stream attention to the WWF. The two I mentioned really didn't do anything. I also threw in Koko, he had what, maybe a couple of tag team championship reigns? Owen held numerous belts, and was in one of the main events at a WM.

Celebrity should NOT be in the WWE HOF! The only one I would think putting in would be the guy that they put in last year Mike Tyson just b/c he help in way get Stone Cold over with the feud going into WM14 with HBK and also help get WWE over WCW alltoly.

Drew Carey and Pete Rose brought attention to the WWE. Rose I know for certain because every year he was at Mania he was all over ESPN.

koko b ware is mos def a lame ass jobber though.

Martha needs to get over herself yeah its tragic Owen Hart died the way he did but its seriously madness her continuing to hold this grudge over WWE. It was a terrible accident and she needs to move on and let Owen's legacy be celebrated by being in the hall of fame
