He was really good friends with Bret Hart.
They put Warrior in, and Macho's in. No one missing can be as big of a surprise.

Does Paige have some kind of dirt on someone really high up in the company? Because it's really random that every single Women's storyline dating from the day she showed up has revolved around Paige. They even called up all of their promising prospects started running more than one women's match a nigh and we're still revolving around Paige.

Bret Hart would, and Steve Austin, and Paul Heyman, and a few others as well. Heyman would be the most relevanr, however.
And uhm, the amount of roid freaks in the HOF is just insane.
Fair enough, that's a good guy to have for a speech, probably.
Just as someone who wasn't around for that time, Warrior and Macho were big big names and there was definitely money and interest in putting them in the HoF. Rude, I dunno.

Dudes, let's be real: everyone on the roster is on steroids right now. I wouldn't be surprised if even Kevin Owens was on steroids.
Fact : Paige is the only second generation superstar where WWE fans (not wrestling fans, WWE fans) have to wikipedia her parents after hearing about it, and then search the internet for one of her mom's matches. Yet, I still think that is a big reason she is so over in the company.

Considering Koko B Ware is in there who did fuck all ever aside from have a bird and sing, while Rude actually was in world title matches and key storylines of the day, yes.
The one man band is all natural, bay-bay
Maybe it's based of off internet hits.

That's kind of self-fulfilling when you only run storylines revolving around Paige.
I think most of us liked Paige when she came up, but good god is she overexposed at this point. I think we legit had Paige v. AJ for an entire year and the only reason it stopped is because AJ quit the company.
whoa whoa there friend
Two easy internet armchair theories:
1. They only put so many deceased folks in each year
2. Vince is mad about him being on Raw and Nitro on the same night
Have you never heard Austin, Heyman, Scott Steiner, or Hart talk about Rude? It was the exact same thing.
The only difference is Rude thought HBK was a cunt and Flair was shit.

Perfect also has a bunch of matches I remember and I don't remember all that much about Rick Rude other than that one time he hit on Cheryl Roberts.
hmmm, who else thinks that and is also not in the HoF?

I think it's still a thing. Hunter will patch it up.
I think Vince views burying the hatchet as making them work for you thus giving you the power to screw them again or you get to make money at their expense.
It proves that you have power over them and that you are higher than them.

As far as I can tell, they resolved the lawsuit in the mid 2000s and Ax had a Legends contract for a while a few years back so I doubt it

Rude also had an awesome feud with Ultimate Warrior in WWF.
But his absolute pinnacle is WCW after. It was apparently Rude showing WWF that they dropped the ball with him. MANY amazing matches and feuds followed that made his WWF run look just plain bad by comparison. His match with Ricky Steamboat at Beach Blast 1992 in particular is one of the most underrated matches ever, IMO. In general, his mic work and wrestling ability just increased massively, which is saying something.
Also, Rude was famous for showing up on WCW and WWF in one night. That's very memorable to me.
Rick Rude was in one of the greatest matches of all time with Ricky Steamboat
I don't remember a single A+ Mr. Perfect matches. A lot of B+ but nothing on the level of Rude/Steamboat

The thing I remember most about the '93 King of the Ring Hart/Perfect match isn't any of the specific in-ring action (it's good), but Earl Hebner randomly hurdle-jumping over the wrestlers while Hart had Perfect in a figure four.

Like I can't figure out why he didn't just go around them - he almost hits Curt in the head when he jumps for no reason.
Well, that's unfair as the Internet is almost entirely made up of pages.

I still can't figure out how the Bushwackers are in the WWE Hall of Fame but Demolition aren't.
I mean, at the rate WWE inducts people you'd think pretty much anyone you even vaguely remember would be in their dumb hall of fame.
Bushwhackers were really good pre-Bushwhackers and are in there for their pre-WWF work, for sure.
Bret. The Rock also didn't like Shawn.
Vader, Demolition, Steiners (who probably will never get in because they dislike Triple H), Earthquake, Lex Luger, and Bam Bam also not in. Only Bam Bam and Earthquake are deceased of those guys. Can throw in British Bulldog, too.

These NWA shows are so good. Lots of long wrestling matches a lot of people wouldn't like. Schiavone is doing commentary solo. Arn Anderson and Tully Blanchard, separately, are over as fuck and people love them, but Schiavone pretends they're not getting chants.
Really great shows, hot crowds, and some of the finest promos came from that time. I can't recommend it enough. Watched the unveiling of the first Crockett Cup seeds for the teams and the venue, and it felt like a huge deal. Lots of dream teams in it, too:
Arn Anderson and Tully Blanchard
Giant Baba and Tiger Mask
The Barbarian and Baron Von Raschke
The Batten Twins (Bart and Brad)
Black Bart and Jimmy Garvin
Dino Bravo and Rick Martel
Bill Dundee and Buddy Landel
The Fabulous Ones (Steve Keirn and Stan Lane)
The Fantastics (Bobby Fulton and Tommy Rogers)
Manny Fernandez and Jimmy Valiant
Ronnie Garvin and Magnum T.A.
Chavo and Hector Guerrero
Sam Houston and Nelson Royal
The Italian Stallion and Koko Ware
Bobby Jaggers and Mike Miller
Wahoo McDaniel and Mark Youngblood
The Midnight Express (Dennis Condrey and Bobby Eaton)
D.J. Peterson and Brett Wayne
The Road Warriors (Animal and Hawk)
The Rock 'n' Roll Express (Robert Gibson and Ricky Morton)
The Russian Team (Ivan and Nikita Koloff)
Buzz Sawyer and Rick Steiner
The Sheepherders (Butch Miller and Luke Williams)
Terry Taylor and Steve Williams
All in all, I love this content. The promos are the best thing. People in their prime, doing their thing, with whatever character they wanted to be. Loving it.

I totally want to really put my head down and do the 1000 Matches in 2016 challenge this upcoming year. I dropped the ball HARD this year, was a couple hundred in and then moving and shit got my shit all fucked up and I lost my love for wrestling. For like, a couple months.
