Wrestling fans worldwide were delighted when it was announced that 'Macho Man' Randy Savage would finally be inducted into the WWE Hall Of Fame the night before Wrestlemania 31. It's been a long time coming, and top of the wish list for many a wrestling devotee, but news that Hulk Hogan was to be the one inducting Savage did turn some heads. There's been a lot of beef reported over the years between Hogan and Savage - at one time friends, the pair had been at loggerheads for years, supposedly never mending their fences before the latter would sadly pass away in 2011. Speaking out on the subject, Savage's brother, Lanny Poffo has admirably endorsed Hogan as the man who should induct his family member. Incredibly, Poffo said that he sees a nobody when he looks in the mirror, except for when he remembers working for a few months with Hogan, the man who helped make him a star. Expressing his gratitude towards Hulkamania for feeding his family, Poffo said he'd like Hogan to get closure from speaking about Savage at the Hall Of Fame.
