10 People You Should Support For WWE Hall Of Fame Class 2016

It's time that Owen Hart was honoured by WWE, but he's not alone...

With each passing year, focus grows stronger on the WWE Hall Of Fame. Officially introduced in 1993, mainly to honour the late, great Andre The Giant (who had passed away just months before), the then-WWF proceeded to hold ceremonies on the same weekend as the King Of The Ring in 1994 and 1995. A one-off event just before the 1996 Survivor Series was the last wrestling fans would see of the Hall Of Fame for close to 8 years, before it came back for good the night before WrestleMania XX in 2004. Nowadays, the WWE Hall Of Fame is a WrestleMania tradition, and the whole week of festivities the company line up for their biggest show of the calendar year simply wouldn't feel complete without it. The idea of an internal Hall Of Fame has been bashed by many, including 2004 inductee 'Superstar' Billy Graham, but on the whole, people get excited by the prospect of seeing their favourite performers be honoured in such a fashion. WrestleMania 32 will take place on April 3rd, 2016 from the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, and attention has already turned to exactly who will be entered into the WWE Hall Of Fame Class Of 2016. There are some big names yet to be inducted, and listed here are just some of the most notable that fans should be hoping to see honoured.
