Then: Some younger fans in attendance for the 2001 Rumble probs didn't have a clue who The Honky Tonk Man was. They watched as the 80s star cut a promo on Kane then took a guitar shot before being thrown out. Thanks for the memories, Honky?

Now: The Honky Tonk Man has had a bit of a strange relationship with WWE over the years. Sometimes, they seem to love one another. Other times, not so much, but he did get inducted into the Hall Of Fame before 'Mania 35 in 2019.

Honky appeared for everyone from ROH to Lucha Underground before getting the HOF nod.
