Is anyone else kind of disappointed with the inductees of the Hall of Fame 2008 so far?
I'm not trying to start any fights and I'm not arguing that these people don't deserve it but really, other than Ric Flair so far, I'm not that excited about the speeches we will be hearing.
I guess I'm looking for a little more sizzle. Steamboat, Legion of Doom, Jake the Snake, Rick Rude, Ted DiBiase, etc.
I can't be the only one who feels this way. Anyone else?

No, not really. But British Bulldog Davey "Boy" Smith and Owen Hart should be inductees as Hall of Fame, then that would be prefect!

I still think Jake "The Snake" Roberts should be inducted.

Eh.
It surely doesn't have the starpower of the HOF from the past 2 years, but I think it'll be a fun night. I'm not looking forward to it as much as I did for WM22's, but it should be decent.

I still think Jake "The Snake" Roberts should be inducted. I agree. Do it now when he is fresh out of rehab and sober. That way his story has a happy ending and you don't have to worry about what condition he may show up in.

So far all that has been announced this year that that are any good are Flair and Mae Young. It doesn't compare to the last couple years with Hogan, Bret, Heenan, Okerlaund, and others. The Briscoes should have been saved for next year since we already have Rocky Johnson and Peter Maivia.

Jake the Snake doesn't belong in the Hall of Fame.

There are a lot of actual deserving people this year.

Boo hoo, all you kids are just crying because most of these guys were stars before you were born. The fact is The Briscoes, and the guys from their era were twice as talented as anyone from the post-Hogan era.

Jake the Snake doesn't belong in the Hall of Fame. Bull Shiz. If Pete Rose and The Fridge are in...Jake the Snake should be in.

They should just induct 1 guy per year. That way, it would be more meaningful to be in the HOF.

They need to space out who they induct in the HOF to keep the fans interest going each year they have these events. If all the names mentioned like the British Bulldogs, LOD, Owen, Big Bossman, Jake, Million Dollar Man, Rick Rude, Pillman, Steamboat were inducted at once...what incentive would anybody have to keep watching the HOF ceremonies.

I think it isn't too bad so far. As Jeremy of Jakks would say, you have to include the B-D list, you can't always have too many A list in one year, or else you won't have anybody to look forward to in years to come

i was thinking that this year is awful when they announced the briscos...now i have nothing against briscoes but i mean use some names instead of flair that people actually know(bulldog, road warriors, pillman, roberts..ect)
so far you got some old tag team, and old woman that strips everytime shes on tv, rocks family and flair
