Celebrity Obituaries and Passings

[The Octopus]

King Kong Bundy was my favorite heel back in the 1980s.

R.I.P

King Kong Bundy.

Another person you'd think would be in the HOF by now but alas...at least we got Kid Rock...?

RIP to a legend

Wait....Kid Rock over KK Bundy? This guy wrestled Andre the Giant and Hulk Hogan in the very beginning of the WrestlManias and got glossed over for that tarded kid pebbles.....SMDH.

[UltramanGoji]

That's the WWE HOF for ya. Legends like Bundy, Vader, and others are glossed over in favor of easy picking mainstream celebrities like Snoop Dogg and Kid Rock.

At least they're slightly rectifying a mistake this year with Chyna's induction as part of D-Generation X but still, she should've been in there ages ago. Same for Owen Hart but that's more his widow's doing than WWE.

To be entirely fair, a lot of that was her own doing. First, she wrongly accused Triple H of raping her, then after that was proven false, she trashed WWE whenever she could. The Chris Benoit debacle comes to mind.

dang , was really hoping to see him back in action again.. but alas.

I just hate to see old wrestlers that should be put in the HOF pass away before even given the chance to be a part of it. Its just so infuriating and sad.

I sincerely hope you're not comparing Chyna's issues to Chris Benoit murdering his fucking wife and child.

And trashing WWE clearly isn't a problem since the freakin' Honky Tonky Man is getting in this year.

There's certain other things Chyna has done that probably wouldn't be the best for all the younger fans who look her up to learn more about her.

You act like guys like Ric Flair or Jimmy Snuka, people WWE still parade around and talk about warmly, are paragons of virtue. Hell, Steve Austin's my favorite of all time and even he isn't spotless when it comes to stuff like that.

I haven't heard Snuka in years. Has Ric Flair or Steve Austin done similar stunts as Chyna?

No, I think not. But some are questionable to be honest.

[UltramanGoji]

Austin was arrested for beating his wife back in the early 2000's and Ric Flair has had numerous run-ins with alcohol and drug abuse plus a smidgen of racism allegations from Teddy Long. And of course, you can't ignore the hot dog skinned elephant in the room that is Hulk Hogan.

Point is, it's a little unfair to say Chyna shouldn't have been in because of her troubled past that kids can easily look up via the Internet because a number of HOFers and potential inductees have shady pasts too. Chyna deserves to be in for her accomplishments in WWE and the wrestling world. It's not a Benoit situation and to compare it to that is just silly.

Never have I agreed with you more....racism, drug abuse, domestic violence, porn ventures, done by wrestlers of days past and new. She fought alongside the men when few ventured into it. Won championships and endured ridicule of possibly being a man and all that crap. It is very unfair to say she doesnt deserve to be there. She earned it plain and simple and should be regarded just as much as the HOF'mers there.

No. I'm just pointing out how her attacking the WWE at it's low point when many other has-been's/never were's did the same thing hurt her chances of getting into the WWE earlier then what should have been.

He was lookin' kinda rough, the last few years. Those Hollywood types tend to indulge in illicit substances far more than the average bear...
