Hulk Hogan appeared on Bubba The Love Sponge show on Sirius Radio the other day when he allegedly received a phone call from Vince McMahon’s secretary discussing the 2007 WWE Hall of Fame. Anyways, Hogan placed her on speaker phone while she read off the names in contention:
The Von Erichs
Ultimate Warrior
The Original Sheik
Ric Flair
Mr. Fuji
Nick Bockwinkel
Muhammed Ali
Mr. T
Mike Tyson
Howard Finkel
Jim Ross
Ken Patera
King Curtis
Ted DiBiase
Jake “The Snake” Roberts
Honky Tonk Man
Randy Savage
Dusty Rhodes
Dick Ebersol (NBC Executive responsible for creation of Saturday Night’s Main Event)
The Wild Samoans
Big Boss Man
Bob Backlund
Rick Rude
The Bushwhackers
Rocky Johnson
The Brooklyn Brawler
Afterwards she seemed a bit shocked when Hogan informed her she was on the air. Anyways, that could very well be the rough list for possible inductees this year. Of course it will be dwindled down quite a bit beforehand.
