Millions of wrestling fans would love to see Owen Hart be inducted into WWE's Hall Of Fame, or become a bonus character in some video game produced by the company. Although his family don't speak on the latter in the documentary, they do conclusively dismiss the HOF.

Martha, Oje and Athena agree that Owen will never get inducted.

They'd rather his legacy lived on though The Owen Hart Foundation. Oje reaffirmed his mother's wishes by saying he couldn't watch on as WWE put his dad's name "on some silver" and pretended to care. Athena, who has always blamed wrestling for taking her father away, backed that up by saying it wouldn't be tasteful.

There you go then. Unless something dramatically changes someday, Owen will never see induction into WWE's Hall Of Fame. It's something Bret Hart has spoken about (he's for it), but Martha, Oje and Athena are determined that it won't happen.
