Earlier this week, the popular Attitude Era for WWE.
With storytelling becoming even more paramount in the world of professional wrestling, this decision from WWE makes total sense. Not saying it hasn't always been a staple of the business, but it has become even more prevalent over the past decade. Generally, the WWE HoF has been used to highlight all the best wrestlers in the company's history. This decision will help solve a glaring issue with the HoF once and for all.
Historical Moments Will Solve a Huge Issue With the WWE Hall of Fame
WWE Is Running Out of Wrestlers to Induct
It can be argued that WWE has been running out of HoF-worthy people to induct. To separate themselves from other professional sports, WWE pivoted and ultimately made the right decision. Over the past years, we've seen some superstars inducted that aren't that recognizable to their audience. Just like Hall of Fames in every professional sport, the candidates can become slim pickings. Luckily for WWE, they've got other avenues they can throw against a wall to see if it sticks.
10 Amazing WWE Moments We Want to See in the New "Immortal Moments" Hall of Fame Slot
The "Immortal Moments" are a new feature of WWE's Hall of Fame, and here are 10 we want to see introduced in the years.
Every person who devoted their life to professional wrestling for decades is worth ing for fans. However, a Hall of Fame is meant to highlight those performers and athletes who have reached the pinnacle of success in the business, and some names inducted in recent years, while a nice treat to hardcore wrestling historians, may have raised some eyebrows. There is also an issue of replication: many wrestlers, including Triple H, have or will be inducted twice, usually as part of a faction or tag team and then a singles star.
With this "Immortal Moments" being a first-of-its-kind induction, it also opens an entire new discussion for the fans. It creates the dialog of what other "Immortal Moments" also deserve to be considered. It also finds a new way to highlight some of the greatest wrestlers of all time. It is great to celebrate the history of professional wrestling and not just the wrestlers themselves. For example, John Cena's recent heel turn could bring up some of the best heel turns as possible inductions. Best matches, most memorable championship victories, best returns, etc. With all the new opportunities it creates, it provides the Hall of Fame with some much-needed breathing room for years to come.
