The 'Celebrity Wing' of WWE's Hall of Fame rightly draws criticism from those wrestling fans who forget or pretend the whole institution is not an entirely arbitrary farce. The main complaint is that a group of so-called 'stars' with only incidental association with the business heavily undermine the prestige of the Hall, not to mention diminishing the esteem of those already deservedly inducted.

That's not to say some of the glitterati littering the alumni haven't made a significant contribution to the industry. Mike Tyson reinvigorated WWE and helped turn Steve Austin into a megastar. Without Mr T, it's eminently possible WrestleMania would not have broke through mainstream barriers.

Drew Carey?

He ran away from Kane in order to promote his upcoming stand-up PPV. Cheers for that, Drew.

Benjamin was born in 1987, and is still not dead. He variously enjoys classical music, old-school adventure games (they're not dead), and walks on the beach (albeit short - asthma, you know). He's currently trying to compile a comprehensive history of video game music, yet denies accusations that he purposefully targets niche audiences. He's often wrong about these things.
