Today, the WWE has announced their second inductee to the 2013 Hall of Fame Class. Former two time WWE World Heavyweight Champion; Bob Backlund is taking his rightful place in the Hall. His first World Title reign lasted a whopping six years, and he headlined countless main events in the fabled Madison Square Gardens. Backlund was a technical marvel, and he bested challenger after challenger. He lost the belt to the Iron Sheik in December of 1983, and was barely a factor in the then named WWF after, as Hulk Hogan took the belt from the Sheik and the Vince McMahon owned fed, moved in a different direction.

Backlund would go into semi-retirement to return in 1992. His first few months provided few highlights, but a heel turn led to a second reign, and a psychotic personality that fit into what wrestling became. Backlund would again ease back into semi-retirement, and has allegedly been approached by the WWE to enter the Hall of Fame for years. We are glad to see that he has accepted, and like the first inductee announced (Mick Foley) it is only fitting to see him inducted in Madison Square Gardens.

Bob Backlund was ranked #4 on our list and along with Foley (#7) makes two of our top ten to be selected for this year. He will remain on our list until we revise it shortly after Wrestlemania. We congratulate Bob Backlund on this well-deserved accolade.
Baseball lost a legend today. Stan “The Man” Musial passed away this evening at the age of 92. In this era of tearing down athletes (whether justified or not), the amount of negative words around Musial appears to be zero. As talented as he was classy, Musial spent his entire 22 year with the St. Louis Cardinals where he won three MVPs and three World Series.

Musial was one of those rare players who can be considered among the best players in Baseball history without generating much of a counter argument. Along with the accolades mentioned earlier, Musial won seven batting titles and finished his career with a .331 career batting average. He matched this keen batting eye, with power as he belted 475 career home runs.

Stan Musial’s number was the first retired by the St. Louis Cardinals, and he remains to this day, the man considered to be the greatest player ever for that storied franchise.   We tip our caps tonight to Musial, and wish we would see someone like that again. Not only could Baseball use him, but the entire sporting world.
Well, you have seen us grow our site with the addition of existing Hockey Hall of Fame inductees. We have done the first four classes, so we move to the Class of 1952 who comprises:

Bill Cook

Dickie Boon

Mickey MacKay

Moose Goheen

Moose Johnson

Nels Stewart

It was reported today on WWE.com that the “Hardcore Legend”, Mick Foley will be inducted to the WWE Hall of Fame this year. Foley was the first name announced to this year’s class which many people expect to be a loaded one as it will be held in the “Mecca of Sports Entertainment”, Madison Square Gardens in New York City.

Foley has often told the story of hitchhiking to the Gardens to see the Steel Cage Match between Jimmy “Superfly” Snuka and “The Magnficent” Muraco and for him to be inducted to the Hall of Fame in that facility has to generate a special feeling for the former three time WWE World Heavyweight Champion.

Under the personas of Cactus Jack, Mankind, Dude Love and his own given name, Foley had his greatest success in the Vince McMahon owned company, and his recent return to the organization felt like a homecoming for many of his fans.

We had the pleasure of interviewing Mick while he was still TNA and asked him whether he would accept an invite to the WWE HOF. He responded that he would, and we are very happy to see that this came to fruition.

Mick Foley is ranked #7 on our Notinhalloffame WWE list. For now, we will not take him off and will revise our respective list after Wrestlemania. We congratulate Mick for his latest achievement. It is well earned!
