Early Predictions for WWE Hall of Fame Class of 2012 and Why

Below are the predictions I think will be inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame Class of 2012 and why I think he/she/they will be inducted. Leave comments on whom you think will be inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame Class of 2012.

#1 (Head of the Class): The Rock
Why? It will be in his hometown of Miami, Florida and he has done everything there was to do in the business, such as win the WWE Championship on seven separate occasions, as well as other titles, such as the WCW World Heavyweight Championship, WWE Intercontinental Championship, WWE World Tag Team Titles, and the 2000 Royal Rumble Match. The Rock inducted his father, Rocky Johnson, and his late grandfather, "High Chief" Peter Maivia, and now it'll be The Rock's turn to be inducted into the Hall of Fame to acknoweldge his outstanding achievements.

#2: Trish Stratus
Why? She has done everything she possibly can do as a diva and is possibly and argueably the best diva to step foot and ever grace a professional wrestling ring. A former multiple time WWE Women's Champion (whom won the title more than anyone has ever done) and also won the WWE Hardcore Championship, which she is one of four divas to ever do, along with Terri Runnels, Bobcat, and Mighty Molly (Molly Holly). She is also the current trainer of Tough Enough, which could be a sign of being inducted into the Hall of Fame next year from Miami and she has done feuds with numerous divas, such as Jazz, Victoria, Lita, Christy Hemme, Mickie James, Molly Holly, Gail Kim, and now currently with Michelle McCool and Layla, with Vickie Guerrero being thrown into the mix. Trish deserves the honor of becoming Immortal with an induction into the WWE Hall of Fame Class of 2012.

#3: Dean Malenko
Why? Argueably the best in ring technician. Although he is not that great on the mic to deliver a promo, he still makes up for it in the ring with his wrestling ability. He is from Tampa, Florida, same state as Wrestlemania 28 and next year's Hall of Fame, which could be a give in for him being inducted into the Hall of Fame Class of 2012. Dean has won the WWE Light Heavyweight Championship, as well as the WCW Cruiserweight Championship, and does deserve the recognition in the company's honorable class of Immortals since he gives his dues to the company currently as a road agent. Dean was best known for his stint with Eddie Guerrero, Chris Benoit, and Perry Saturn, along with their manager being Terri Runnels, as The Radicalz, and is also known for his love interest in a storyline with Lita, and also being called The Ladies Man. Dean does deserve this honor and I'm sure in his home state of Florida that he'll be getting the privledge to become legendary.

#4: The Brain Busters
Why? The Brain Busters, consisting of Arn Anderson and Tully Blanchard, were rumored to be inducted into this year's Hall of Fame, but I think he should be inducted next year since they obviously weren't this year. Arn Anderson, most notable for his run with The 4 Horsemen, along with Ric Flair, and his brief stint with Undertaker in 2002 when he feuded with Ric Flair. The Brain Busters are a legendary tag team and deserve to be inducted into this prestigous class as they are simply a legendary team that long deserve a Hall of Fame induction.

#5: Dick Slater
Why? With it being in Miami, Florida, why not induct Dick Slater? He's a legendary professional wrestling from Florida that had a brief stint in Florida and it'll be a good addition to the Hall of Fame for the Class of 2012. I think, even though he didn't do much in the WWE in the 1980s, he did make an impact in Mid South Wrestling and Florida that deserves an induction into the Hall of Fame next year in Florida.

#6: Jake "the snake" Roberts
Why? A legendary athlete to say the least. With his snake, Damien, Jake "the snake" Roberts did a lot in the WWE, like rivalring with Undertaker, "Macho Man" Randy Savage, Andre the Giant, Rick "the model" Martel, Stone Cold Steve Austin, and "Ravishing" Rick Rude. Roberts was in the Finals of the 1996 King of the Ring Tournament that was won by Stone Cold Steve Austin. Jake "the snake" Roberts does deserve to be inducted into the Hall of Fame, but time will tell if his destiny of legendary status is next year or in a different year of the future.

#7: The Honky Tonk Man
Why? The longest reigning WWE Intercontinental Champion does deserve to be inducted into the Hall of Fame. The cousin of Hall of Fame, Jerry "the king" Lawler, does deserve to be in the Hall of Fame since he is argueably the greatest WWE Intercontinental Champion of all time. The Honky Tonk Man, also known for his feud with The Ultimate Warrior and his manager being the loud mouth with a megaphone, Jimmy Hart, is the Elvis Presley of the WWE, which means he does deserve to be inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame Class of 2012.

#8: Hercules
Why? Had a brief stint in the WWE and is also from Florida, Tampa to be exact. Hercules was such a powerhouse, known with his managers of Bobby "the brain" Heenan, Sir Oliver Humperdink, Harley Race, Jim Cornette, Skandor Akbar, and Slick. Such a great talent that passed away and deserves to be acknowledged for his skills, whether he was a jobber or not.

#9: Harvey Wippleman
Why? The only man to win the WWE Women's Championship and a legendary manager that currently resides from Florida. He managed a ton of superstars, including Big Bully Busick, Cactus Jack, The Masked Maurador, Don Bass, Sid Justice, The Warlord, Glenn Kulka, Ray Candy, Steve Bradley, Eli the Eliminator, Jeff Gaylord, Wild Samoan Sika, The Giant Gonzalez, Kamala, Adam Bomb, Mr. Hughes, Kwang, Brian Armstrong, The Brooklyn Brawler, Jack "the stretcher" Hart, Bertha Faye, The Fabulous Moolah, Big Bubba Rogers, Baldo, "Irish Assassin" Mick Tierney, Big Bill Tabb, Tony Falk, Goliath, Rude Dog, The Scorpion, King Cobra, Sgt. Major Gary Lang, Rick Link, Phil Hickerson, Earthquake Ferris, Rob Noxious, Ken Raper, Frankie Lancaster, Pat Rose, Lou Fabiano, Buddy Wayne, Mike Samples, Pat Hutchinson, Jim Ryder, Bronx Bull, Bronx Bomber, The Louisiana Assassins, Bob Owen, Carl Fergie, Gary Young, Tony Anthony, Alan Steele, and he also managed tag teams and factions, such as The Stud Stable, The Harris Brothers, The Assassins, Rock 'n' Roll RPMs, Badd Company, The Moondogs, Eddie and Doug Gilbert, Well Dunn, The Batten Twins, and The Kelly Twins. With that long list of clients he managed, he deserves a Hall of Fame slot next year from his home state of Florida.

#10: "Macho Man" Randy Savage
Why? Why? I should say why not? The legendary athlete from Saraota, Florida, the home state of the Hall of Fame Class of 2012 Induction Ceremony and Wrestlemania 28 and a former WWE Champion, former WCW World Heavyweight Champion, former WWE World Tag Team Champion, and a former WWE Intercontinental Champion, along with being a winner of a King of the Ring Tournament. Managed by the lovely Miss Elizabeth, and also known for his team with Hulk Hogan as The Mega Powers and his rivalries with Hulk Hogan, "Million $ Man" Ted DiBiase, Andre the Giant, Jesse "the body" Ventura, Haku, Lex Luger, Bret "Hitman" Hart, The Ultimate Warrior, Jake "the snake" Roberts, The Junkyard Dog, Dusty Rhodes, and The Sensational Sherri, since she managed him and then dumped him like a bad habit. The Hall of Fame won't ever be complete with "Macho Man" being inducted.
