They will put up an episode of Mid-South Wrestling sometime next month for Black History Month, with a show headlined by Junkyard Dog vs. King Kong Bundy. -

Jesse's commentary has been removed from individual matches on WWE's recent home video releases so it's possible he stirred that pot up again. Plus, considering that Chris Kyle has been in the news again because of American Sniper doing so well at the Box Office, I'm not sure they'd want to risk giving Jesse TV time for fear that it might hurt their relationship with the USO.

An Owen Hart-Eddie Guerrero program in that era of WWE would have been equally entertaining outside the ring as it was in. Don't forget Kurt Angle, who I think was in one of Owen's last matches.

I can see why it's good to put Cena with Rusev. Make the fans feel like communists if they boo Cena.
I know they've done cropping on stuff before, but that's more like for clips for documentaries (it's all over the Flair one for example). They've never done that for full shows, which is more important imo.
That would be kind of awesome, but who knows if Jesse is cool with Vince anymore or not.
Kane broke Shawn Michaels' record of most eliminations.
Technical question, did they start filming in 4K or in a higher resolution than before? Once the live feed kicked in, it looked pretty great from what I could see.
And we're pretty much stuck with those bars, because you can't upgrade VHS like you can film. Unless they decide to crop them, in which case it would all look pretty terrible (they do a bit of this already on their shows like Countdown).
Arnold Schwarzenegger to be inducted into the celebrity wing.
I'd like to think this is His long-delayed response to Vince's challenge
All I've got to say is this. At least DDP was eliminated on camera.
Had he never been fired (for something as stupid as he was fired for btw) he could have become a huge draw. Imagine how useful and effective he could have been for the WCW side during the NWO angle. It's almost sad if you think about the great matches he had with Austin and Rude, and the hot angle he had going with Fuller and his stable of guys (until Hulkamania ran afoot that is), and then just a few years later seeing him do the gay heel act to Ahmed Johnson and The Ultimate Warrior. It's a small consolation now that he's doing so well with his brother, and from what I've seen some of that old fire he had is still there.
They just added a new card to the "Old School" section, the 1/23/84 MSG show.
The best match of WrestleMania III was Can-Am Connection/Orton & Muraco.
Wouldn't they have a lot of AWA footage and maybe some MSG footage?
Demolition was a Vince creation so they have a better chance than anyone to get in.
I think at the time of the Confidential thing, McMahon still could have been sore about Lex going to WCW behind his back. I think Luger got into his good graces again only recently, he was invited to the last WM in Atlanta which would have been in 2011, presumably right before they hired him as a wellness counselor. I don't know if that necessarily will mean he's HOF material, as I don't think his legacy has been celebrated too much. Even on the "Legends of Wrestling" programs, the panelists had at best, a lukewarm view of his in-ring work.
In this internet age, you can't erase stuff like this. In a matter of a few minutes anyone can access to videos of Chyna getting fucked by two (or more) guys. So yeah. There's no way she's getting in, if only because of this. And quite frankly, Chyna sucked back then too. Okay, maybe the Hall of Fame is out, but in general reference to her relationship with the company, I can see how possibly time could be a healer in that situation. Then again I did just glance her Twitter and she put up a rather negative response to something Stephanie said about the wellness program. So maybe not.
As far as I'm concerned, Bruno getting in has made anything possible. It's a small one but I'd say she has a chance of getting in. Triple H did say some positive things about how she got over in his official WWE doc from a few years ago. Maybe when her porn career is long forgotten and everyone's a little older and mellower it could happen.
So, Randy's the first one to be announced. Guessing more announcements to come the closer we get to WrestleMania. Let the speculation on who else gets in begin.
Savage/Steamboat at IV could have been a good angle for the PPV audience too. They could have had backstage segments with Dibiase trying to buy Steamboat off and letting it play into the match a little, too.
