Since the creation of the WWE Hall of Fame, there’s been one glaring error: Macho Man Randy Savage isn’t in it.
Macho Man is inarguably one of the most famous, important, popular and accomplished men to ever step foot in a WWE ring — or any ring, for that matter — and his exclusion has caused years of rumors, speculation and accusation. We’ll probably never know exactly what took WWE so long to rebuild that bridge and honor the man, but according to sources that ends tonight. Macho Man Randy Savage is finally going into the WWE Hall of Fame, and the announcement is expected to be made on tonight’s episode of Raw.
Sources tell us … the WWE is expected to make the official announcement on “Raw” tonight.
It’s unclear why the WWE has waited so long to enshrine Savage, who passed away in 2011 — especially since he’s one of the most famous wrestlers of all time.
In fact, Stone Cold Steve Austin even confronted Vince McMahon about it last month — with Vince promising Savage would be inducted in the near future.
Now, McMahon is proving he’s a man of his word — we’re told the official induction ceremony will go down in Santa Clara, CA the day before WrestleMania 31.
Thank you.
Now to get excited about the Hall of Fame tribute video. They’ll have to work hard to beat the Coldplay video they put together when he passed.
