    Jacqueline is already in. Plenty of ladies from the 80's and 90's are left who are actually worthy of an induction, unlike Keibler.

    She was only known for grinding and showing off her legs. Couldn't wrestle worth shit. Guess all those bj's to Vince paid off.

    Eh, she's more qualified than the Bella's. None of them should be in there. Hell, Torrie Wilson shouldn't be in there either. Is Trish Stratus in? She actually deserves it.

    Yeah, they NEVER mention Jazz, IMO surprisingly so. Wendi Richter gets name-dropped more than her. Not sure if there’s bad blood there or something, or possibly with her husband Rodney Mack/Redd Dogg.

    Although she’s not a wrestler, I guess Stacy deserves it just because of her impact in getting wrestling noticed by the mainstream, both in WCW and WWE.
    They’re running out of viable options though. We’ll know they’re really scraping the bottom of the barrel when they start inducting people like Tori or Nidia.

    Couldnt remember. I mean when Luna Vachon was inducted into the legacy wing rather than a regular inductee then it's a sign that not many more 80s ladies will see a regular induction

    Some female wrestlers who should be in the HOF. Judy Martin, Leilani Kai, Princess Victoria, The Jumping Bomb Angels (they stole the show at the 1st ever Survivor Series) Bull Nakano and Velvet McIntrye. Unlike all of McMahon and Russo's bimbos these women could actually wrestle.

    Reports spreading about Bray Wyatt walking out due to creative issues, but another report says he’s resting injuries before WM. If he really did walk out, seems stupid to do it right before the WM payday.

    YES to this.
    I was going to mention the Jumping Bomb Angels in my last post but forgot. Their time in WWF came before I started watching, but I went back to check out their matches and their style was WAAAAAY beyond the typical women’s matches US fans had grown accustomed to (through Moolah’s school, which apparently had a monopoly on US women’s wrestling for decades).

    Chyna deserves to get her own induction into the hall, not as a part of DX.

    Mickie James should be in, but she's still currently wrestling, I think.

    If Stacy Keibler gets in, Kelly Kelly should get in. She wasn't great, but at least she actually wrestled and contributed something more than just her body.

    Not sure why Victoria isn't in the hall. There's probably some dispute or bad blood going on.

    How Sable isn't in is beyond me. There must be some dispute going on there as well.

    I expect to see Alicia Fox inducted at some point in the near future. Met her at SDCC a couple of times and she was amazing for both.

    I actually met all of these women sans Keibler (who I hope to meet someday) and they were all great! Out of all of them, Chyna was the most sweet and genuine. She was especially kind to my wife who knew absolutely nothing about wrestling. RIP

    That was a fun opening segment for Dynamite. Almost 4 years in the making, this should be good

    Yeah Sable is persona non grata more or less last I knew. She doesn't come around despite Brock being semi active there. Not saying its impossible. Bret, Bruno, and warrior prove that but...yeah

    Man, that ending to Dynamite was painful. If any episode needed an overrun, it was tonight with that group in the ring. I know it'll end up on Twitter or maybe the AEW Youtube channel but still

    Never, ever bring cake near a ring. You just know it's not going to get eaten. Of the three that challenged, I'm only a fan of Darby but I don't think he's ready to be the top guy yet. I see MJF being champion for quite some time.

    Aside from the opening segment, I'm surprised to be saying that I think the ladies stole the show last night. The Outcasts story is moving along in a somewhat predictable, but interesting direction. Nice to see some established and newer AEW originals teaming together. I actually popped a bit for Riho and I'm usually meh with her.

    Taya showing up to challenge Jade was expected, but still very cool to see. I like Jade, but she needs some work on her in-ring skills. Someone with the size and skill of Taya could definitely help Jade in that respect and can make a feud between the two believable. They're both beasts athletically, so this could be a really good run.

    So TK announced on Twitter than Stu is All Elite (again). Cool turn of events. Kinda funny that he's the first guy to officially leave AEW and then come back.

    Reports are that Triple H is working on cleaning up Vince’s “last mess” which is the Undisputed Title, and is planning on a way to split the belts again by SummerSlam

    Ugh. Not this shit yet again! I've never liked the whole "brand extension".
