Boxing and wrestling go hand in hand - as was probably clear from the previous entry. While Ali undoubtedly deserves credit, he's not the only boxer who has had a solid connection to the company. Many fighters have stepped foot inside the wrestling ring, including Ali and Tyson Fury, but one particularly notable showcase event had to be Floyd Mayweather's No-DQ match against The Big Show at WrestleMania XXIV.

Floyd 'Money' Mayweather certainly lives up to his namesake, as whatever he touches turns to gold. This is why his cross-promotional work in WWE was such a big deal. It brought the company a tonne of good press and felt like a genuinely glorious moment for the sport. The match itself was one hell of a spectacle. While it wasn't a technically sound wrestling performance, it was a flawless special event that remains a memorable part of WrestleMania history.

It's impossible to argue that he doesn't deserve a place in the HOF as his prolific time with the company worked wonders for them, and he actually holds a WrestleMania victory under his belt. Which other celebrity Hall of Famers can say the same?
