Earl Hebner to the TNA Hall of Fame

Does this Hall of Fame really matter?

It seems like every time we mention that the TNA wrestling promotion inducts a new member to their Hall of Fame, we openly have to ask just how much longer the promotion will last.  With their current deal on Destination America coming to an end, we ask that question even louder as they announced that referee, Earl Hebner will be their latest inductee to their Hall.

Hebner joined TNA in 2006 after he and his brother Dave were let go by the WWE following selling WWE merchandise without the organization’s permission.  In TNA, Hebner would resume his role as a referee and would occasionally be part of on-screen angles, much like he was in the WWE.

While Earl Hebner is going into the TNA Hall of Fame, he is (and always will be) best known for his work with the WWE, where he was the senior referee for years and was brought in for his first match as the “evil twin” referee of Dave Hebner during the Hulk Hogan VS Andre the Giant match on network TV in 1988. 

Hebner joins Kurt Angle, The Dudley Boys, Sting and Jeff Jarrett into the TNA Hall of Fame.

He will become the second inductee to the Hall this year.  The ceremony will take place on October 3, on a house show in Salem, Virginia, Hebner’s home state.
