These names were requested by yours truly. Mainly because I was curious to see what their opening prices would be.
Here's what I asked for and the odds that were applied.
Damien Demento 100/1 - I was thinking of wrestlers based in New York and surrounding areas and Demento was one of the names that I thought of! I was curious to see what he would be installed at. They didn't fail me by immediately placing him as the rank outsider.
Raven 80/1 - Another wrestler based on the east coast (unless he is living somewhere else). I doubt he'll be considered as he had recently tried to file lawsuits against the company.
Cyndi Lauper 66/1 - I was thinking of celebrities who are associated with New York and the first WrestleMania considering it's the thirty-fifth Mania. Lauper came to mind.
X-Pac 50/1 - Along with Triple H, Sean Waltman is the only other member of The Clique who hasn't been inducted. Unlikely to be the last inductee, but was intrigued to see what his price would have been.
Christian 50/1 - I requested Christian because there has been that running joke about him not having been inducted yet. Like Waltman, I don't think he would pass as a main inductee, but I was keen to see what price he would have been given.
Linda McMahon 25/1 - Like Vince, I don't think Linda McMahon will be inducted in her lifetime. I was curious to see how far off her price would be to Vince's opening odds of 20/1.
Brooklyn Brawler 25/1 - An highly unlikely main inductee, but has a better chance than Damien Demento because of his long tenure and other roles he worked for with WWE.
Bam Bam Bigelow 20/1 - Bigelow was one of the names that was rumoured to be in the running for this year's class. WWE has never had a posthumous headline inductee. Here's a controversial take, but - based on how their WWE careers contrast - Bigelow has a better chance of main eventing WWE's Hall of Fame than the current third-favourite, Vader. Any other Hall of Fame and it would be the other way around.
Muhammad Ali 5/1 - With Muhammad Ali being a part of the first WrestleMania, I really could see him being one day added as part of the celebrity wing.
New World Order 2/1 - I am sure that, one day, the New World Order will be inducted into the Hall of Fame. The three main stars - Kevin Nash, Scott Hall and Hulk Hogan - have all been inducted singly, so it is only a matter of time. It wouldn't surprise me if Hogan's return to WWE leads to an nWo induction.
