20 Most Overdue WWE Hall Of Fame Inductions

6. Vader

The Man They Call Vader paved a path of destruction through WCW that anybody not named Goldberg could hope to rival. Vader was the consummate monster heel, crushing every babyface challenger in his path en route to 3 WCW World Championships, and a total of 5 in All Japan and New Japan. He had a few memorable moments in his WWE run - like slapping that Kuwaiti Geraldo - but the HOF-worthy parts of his career definitely happened elsewhere.

Why He Isn't In: Vader's WWE career was very flat, and the big man was unable to replicate the success he'd had elsewhere. That said, he does pop up as a WWE Legend© from time to time, and underwhelming WWE follow-ups to stellar WCW careers could only keep Sting and DDP out for so long.
