      I never knew that Dusty had another son by the name of Cody. I can't wait for the HOF on Saturday night, this thing has always been great to watch.

          I would assume Austin would induct JR.

            I saw a couple of his matches (He works in OVW), he was their champ not too long ago although I think it only lasted for one show.

            I'm gonna download some more OVW TV though.

              Wade Boggs is inducting my favorite wrestler. I guess they wanted Larry Henning to accept for his son. Wade Boggs...I can't believe there wasn't anyone else to induct Henning.

                What's the connection between Wade Boggs and Henning?

                  I was going to go to the ceremony on the off-chance that they'd induct Steamboat and Savage... both deserving and perfect timing for the return of Wrestlemania to Detroit. I'm bummed.

                  Maybe next year, Steamer...

                    The only thing I can remember is when Perfect did a vignette showing how great he was at everything. There was one where he kept on hitting homeruns one after another at a ballpark and I believe Boggs was in that vignette.

                      I didn't know that, very cool. He must be very young than not to have been in the business earlier.

                      I think Boggs is a horrible decision to induct Curt, it should have been his father or one of his long time buddies in the business.

                      I feel the same with Jerry Lawler, what business does Shatner have inducting him? I just get so sick of dumb things like that. Jerry has such a storied past in Memphis, that they could have had someone better than Shattner. It's the Wrestling HOF, the WWE treats this like a media spectacle where their inducting celebrities or vice versa. I don't think MLB or NFL does that to their HOF legends.

                        I'm gonna be there with a few of my friends for the show as well as wrestlemania. My buddy is the biggest Perfect fan on the planet. He went to Minnesota I believe and has a picture of his gravesite and a copy of the eulogy. He also went to the high school where Perfect and Rude attended. He spoke with the librarian trying to buy the yearbook but she wouldn't sell it. He also has the jacket which has Mr. Perfect on the back with some sort of shiny stones on it...hope you know what I'm talking about. Anyway, it should be a great time.

                            Yeah my buddy's kind of a Perfect fanatic. He was really mad that he didn't get that yearbook.
