I think it’s worth saying that she has denied this in very strong terms. 

But the big question.... Was she enjoying the sun and roller skating while debunking the claims??

A real victim of the newsletter pervs.

"The oak like Total Package" is one I remember Fin coming out, in reference to how good Macho Man had been dragging a good match out of him. Mind you it doesn't help when other wrestlers routinely slag him off. Even nice guy Ricky Steamboat once said in a shoot that it was like working with a lamppost.

Disgraceful? Off the top of my head they've got Stacy Keibler, Queen Sharmell and Torrie Wilson in there fairly recently, so is putting Michelle in there disgraceful?

Well equally as bad at least! Someone else named a few others that could go in ahead such as Liz, Victoria, Bull Nakano, Cyndi Lauper etc but yeh I get it not all are on the WWE gravy train and there's a spot to fill, so step up Mrs. Mc Cool!

Bull Nakano

She went in last year.

Looks like there's a new category with the 'Immortal Moment' award. 

The inaugral this year is Hart vs Austin from WM13

Not a bad idea I suppose, although I'm sure it's going to get kinda predictable. 

What's the bet we get DX rock up to WCW in a jeep next year?

Might have been a great idea if they started it 30 years ago. Surely they can’t do one moment a year?

 

[Chili]

Is it named after Hogan or is that just named coincidence. Am I right they've ditched The Warrior award? Scrap the dead nutter named award and do one naked after the racist. Two shoes covered in dog shit.

There's so much shite in the Hall of Fame that for me it's lost all credibility anyway.

 

Sorry to dredge an old post but this topic has slipped my radar for some reason. 

Are you saying that none of the people going in now has the credibility of Vince McMahon's driver? It's a high bar you set TKOos.

Ugh, he wasn't just a driver. Generally though, the Hall of Fame is mostly bollocks, but I get it'll mean something to people with a love of the art but also no pension plans and mostly no health insurance etc

He also ran buildings for them etc. It's nothing massive I just think he did more than drive a rich fella about and stuff.

Not much more. My point was though that TKOos feels that the Hall Of Fame had lost credibility. When Driving with Dudley went in the other inductees were Arnold Skaaland, Bobo Brazil, Buddy Rogers, Chief Jay Strongbow, Freddie Blassie and Gorilla Monsoon. His presence insured that there was no credibility from the start, yet TKOos feels that the HOF has lost credibility. What sad times we live in.

It never had any credibility really, it wasn't launched because Andre carked it. It was launched because WCW were doing one and the mad sex pest saw his arse about it. There's nothing sad about it, it's lunatics getting their flowers and a ring a lot of them pawn off because they physically wrecked, or in Steve Austin's case, gave to his brother.

[Lion_of_the_Midlands]

I'm sad for TKOos not for any of the other charlatans.

I might have missed a bit here, why are you sad for TKO?
