WS Pro Wrestling Hall of Fame Discussion Thread

[Hoss]

The Road to WrestleMania upon us once again, which also means it's the Road to the Wrestling Smarks Pro Wrestling Hall of Fame. Time to start contemplating who you folks want to add to our esteemed institution.

If you wanna check out the current inductees, click here: https://wrestlingsmarks.com/threads...o-wrestling-hall-of-fame.110178/#post-1543601

We're gonna continue with 5 inductees this year and I'll announce soon when nominations open up. In the meantime, discuss who you think should go in this year. Also, I'm considering lower the number of inductees for future years from 5 to 3. How would people feel about that?

 

[Alexa]

[King Kota]

Dusty Rhodes, Eric B. Brian Pillman, Owen Hart, Jim Ross, HHH,

@Hoss what are the pre-requirements

 

[Canadian Dragon]

basically I just want to know if

Spoiler

jay briscoe

is eligible

 

[Chris]

Spoiler

jay briscoe

is eligible

He would be but I'm more fuzzy on if we could do Briscoes as a team since Mark doesn't meet the age or retirement requirement. I would say yes bc the team is can't be active with Jay gone and also to further my case...TEW will induct tag teams to HOFs when only one retires even if the other is still active, but it's EC's call

 

[Hoss]

It's a definite yes on me for Jay as well as The Briscoes, if only on the basis that (grim as it may be) the tag team is effectively retired.

 

[Canadian Dragon]

appreciate the prompt response, good sir

Well that’s depressing

 

[Canadian Dragon]

Well on that note, vote for The Briscoes !

 

[Hoss]

Well that’s depressing

Yeah but it is what it is

Just to refresh everyone on the rules and such:

The nomination process will be handled in two phases.

- Phase one: Each and every member of this forum may send a list in to me of 10 acts they want to nominate for the Hall of fame. You will order your lists 1-10, with whoever your first pick is getting 10 points, the second choice getting 9 points, and so on down the list. The top 10 nominees in terms of points will be finalists for the induction.

- Phase two: The 10 finalists will be announced. You will then be asked to choose 5 of the finalists, and just like the first phase, you will list them 1-5 in order of who you want to give the most points to. The 5 top point getters will be the inductees of that year's Hall of Fame.

- You may nominate anyone who has ever been a part of the business. Wrestlers, tag teams, stables, managers, announcers, promoters, referees... they're all up for nomination. Wrestlers must be at least 42 years old or semi-retired to be eligible.

- Tag teams and stables do count as one pick, so if you wish to nominate The Road Warriors, The Four Horsemen, The Steiner Brothers or whatever, they will only take up one spot on your list. You do not have to list them individually, although of course you can also list members of groups individually if you deem them worthy of induction. So, for example, you may nominate both Evolution and Triple H

- You can absolutely campaign publicly for people you want to see inducted, but please do not reveal your full lists in the thread.




I'd prefer if everyone hold off on lists though, at least until I have a new thread for this year's festivities made.
