Basic Info
Started in 1993 with the induction of the late Andre the Giant, the Hall honors retired WWE and non-WWE personalities who have made significant contributions to professional wrestling.From 1997 to 2003, there were no Hall of Fame inductees, but the ceremony was revived in 2004 for the 20th anniversary of WrestleMania. The Hall of Fame ceremony has since been held every year before the pay-per-view event.
-
Criticism
Some have criticized the legitimacy of the WWE Hall of Fame because WWE owner Vince McMahon has the final say over who gets inducted and who doesn't.Although wrestlers like Randy Savage or Ultimate Warrior were popular 1980s stars and possibly deserve induction, their personal problems with McMahon would make such a consideration impossible for the time being.

WWE decided to stick the Hall Of Fame smack in the middle so I either miss the end of ROH or possibly the start of DGUSA, very annoying

WWE.com announced that Hall Of Fame is at 4pm. This means it will be over in time for the DGUSA Saturday night show. Tix on sale Thursday.
