“There were none. In 2019, I don’t think there were any then either. Jerry Lawler was out there hosting like you normally would, and then it would go to a video package. It was almost like the video package was the induction.”

The Hall of Fame ceremony this year is one of the most stacked in the promotion’s history. With two classes going in on the same night, this was a huge event.

The class of 2020 includes:

The New World Order (nWo), (“Hollywood” Hulk Hogan, Kevin Nash, Scott Hall, and Sean Waltman), The Bella Twins (Brie Bella and Nikki Bella), John “Bradshaw” Layfield,The British Bulldog and Jushin “Thunder” Liger.

William Shatner was announced as an inductee into the Celebrity Wing of the Hall of Fame as part of the Class of 2020 instead of 2021 because he was originally intended to be inducted in 2020.

Batista was also scheduled to be a part of this class but had to withdraw citing previous obligations.

The class of 2021 features:

Molly Holly, Eric Bischoff, Kane, The Great Khali and Rob Van Dam (RVD)
