I don't see the nWo being inducted this year or ever really, Hogan is already a HOF member. Kevin Nash I would consider in a few years, he is a multple time WWE and World Heavyweight Champion. Scott Hall is a sad case. He should be there but I'm not sure he's accomplished enough just based on his tag team accomplishments.

Everyone fully expects Savage to be named this year. I wouldn't be shocked if he wasn't but WWE really doesn't need bad publicity right now and they'd get huge flak for this. They'll probably save this announcement for last. Miss Elizabeth should be inducted. They inducted Sunny last year...Elizabeth should follow suit.
 
I read something about a month ago regarding him but can't remember now what it was. I'm pretty sure he is still under TNA contract.

How is Kane/Cena great? It feels awkward and forced to me and an obvious attempt to turn Cena heel which may back fire given the crowd responses. I heard them cheering John tonight for the first time in...well a long time.

Kane's all Kaney and Cena's all self-doubty. Ryder looks squashy. I get entertainment out of it. It's Kaney Kane.

Well at least one person gets something out if I guess. Ryder's always been squashy until he won the US Title.

Quite right too. So you don't enjoy this Kane/Cena feud at all? Its most obvious function is teasing for a Cena heel turn, but we're getting good Kaney Kane and action and stuff. No doubt they'll have a heck of a match when it comes to it. And I like his new face choke move. It's keeping me interested at least.
 
I don't mind the Cena/Kane thing cause it keeps SuperCENA away from the WWE title for now at least. :lol:
 
^^His "face choke move" as you put it, is basically Mick Foley's old mandible claw. I already stated in previous posts that Kane's function is to turn Cena heel which makes no sense whatsoever given they've very little to zero history together. Kane should have gone after Henry for putting him out but obviously Henry's injury has most likely prevented it. What's with the goofy "Kaney Kane" comment?

Another very good point. It's a real breath of fresh air to not have Cena or Orton (or, to be honest, Edge) hogging the titles.

It's not the mandible claw at all. The idea behind that was the hand going in the mouth and pressing into the area under the tongue. The face choke is just squishing up yer face and breathing outlets. As for Kaney Kane, he's being dominant and feared. For years he's often teetered on the edge of just being the Big Red Jobber, and now he's back in a manner of how he debuted, that of a seemingly unbeatable monster. The mask helps too. At the same time though, he's being talky and psychological like unmasked Kane was good at. He's as Kaney as he's ever been.
 
I would disagree with you. He's the same Kane has he has been for the last two or three years just with the mask back on. As I said a few pages ago...I see at least one match between Cena and Kane, probably at Royal Rumble with MAYBE a rematch at the following PPV.
 
He's dominant. He's got Cena on the worry, and considering no one's had Cena's shoulders cleanly on the mat for three since that Raw match with HBK (I think that's the last time), having Cena acting worried and choking him out week after week is about an dominant as it gets. Mind you, Kane did look strong beating Under-Methuselah-Taker in straight sets during his WHC reign. Still, he's presented as someone to be feared as it was when he debuted - his first proper match IIRC was a squash of Mankind.
 
^ However TNA being the idiots they are would not mention that Flair appeared on a WWE show.
Of course Flair might only show up if he knew he was getting paid.
Accepting the HOF award for the original four hoursmen are Dean Malenko and Steve McMichael.
 
You know, I kind of miss Mongo sometimes. I don't know why.

I've really, really been enjoying the Cena/Kane feud. There's actually something sort-of different going on with Cena's character right now, and Kane is really bringing that out of him.

Ryder is remaining the weird comedy relief in this whole thing, and I think he's maintaining his popularity just fine through that.

It'd be nice if Flair showed up at the HoF. It'd be nice if Flair just went back to WWE in any capacity.
