I recently saw a tweet by Mick Foley in which he called for a certain reality show host to be removed from the WWE Hall of Fame. That made me think about what a mess the WWE Hall of Fame really is: Drew Carey, Snoop Dogg, Torrie Wilson, Koko B. Ware, etc. What are these people doing in the Hall of Fame? It seems that everyone who has done anything for WWE and manages to stay in Vince's good graces gets a spot eventually, which drags down the overall prestige of the Hall of Fame induction in my opinion.
To contrast take a look at the Impact/TNA Hall of Fame:
2012 - Sting
2013 - Kurt Angle
2014: Team 3D (The Dudley Boyz)
2015 - Jeff Jarrett & Earl Hebner
2016: Gail Kim
2018: Abyss
2020: Ken Shamrock
Just one of two inductions per year and they'll even skip a year if they don't have a person that meets the requirements. When your name gets added to that list that's a sign that the company really values you and that you were of great importance to them.
Are there any other (better?) pro-wrestling Hall of Fames out there?
