8 Celebrities Who Deserve A Place In WWE Hall Of Fame
7. Muhammad Ali
Some stars are destined to shine brighter than others, and that's been seen in multiple sports as legends of the business end up transcending the bounds of their medium. Michael Jordan, Babe Ruth and David Beckham are great examples, but there might be none better than Muhammad Ali.
The legendary boxer was an instrumental piece of popular culture, and his charismatic personality combined with his mighty fists made him a star. This was something that translated to wrestling incredibly well, as could be seen with his massive marquee match-up against Antonio Inoki, which would lay the groundworks for the rise of MMA.
He also spent some memorable time with WWF, notably making an appearance at the first-ever WrestleMania, where he acted as the special guest referee for the main event.
The late, great Ali was a once in a lifetime figure. While his legacy is hardly short of accolades, it seems fitting to place his name into the HOF as he played a vital role in the inaugural WrestleMania, which helped establish the event's legitimacy.
