It was announced today on WWE.Com that Jim Cornette will be the inductor for the Rock and Roll Express’s WWE Hall of Fame induction.

On his podcast, Cornette stated that he would be honored to induct the tag team but he speculated that due to comments he has made about the world’s biggest wrestling promotion after he was fired over a decade ago that he would never be invited.  We think that he must be pleasantly surprised by this news.

Cornette was the long time manager of the Midnight Express, comprising “Beautiful” Bobby Eaton, “Loverboy” Dennis Condrey and later “Sweet” Stan Lane, and it was team that feuded with the Rock and Roll Express for years and over differing promotions.  It is near impossible to think of Ricky Morton and Robert Gibson without imagining Cornette holding a tennis racket berating the fan favorites. 

With Cornette appearing on WWE TV again, perhaps this could lead to an eventual induction for Cornette himself, who we feel is very deserving. 

He is currently ranked #23 by us on our Notinhalloffame.com WWE HOF list.

I think we can all agree that the WWE Hall of Fame ceremony just became a lot more interesting!
It is a very sad day in the world of Rock and Roll.

The legendary Chuck Berry, considered by many to be one of the pioneers of Rock and Roll music, if not the father of the genre, passed away at the age of 90 today. 

Berry was at the forefront of accelerating R&B to what would become contemporary Rock and Roll music.  Berry would also incorporate the fast pace of rockabilly to his sound and as such, helped to create a sonic blueprint that appealed to both Black and White America and if there were a Mount Rushmore of Rock and Roll, Chuck Berry would be on it. 

Berry did not have a number one hit in the 1950’s, but the hits he had of “Maybelline”, “Johnny B. Goode” and “Roll Over Beethoven” are staples of the genre.  Berry wasn’t a political singer, nor did he ever try to be.  This was a man who looked to perfect the rock party sound and as such has been cited as a major influence to many rock stars who followed.

Fittingly, Chuck Berry was a member of the inaugural class of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1986.

We don’t know about the rest of you but tonight we are going to rock ourselves to sleep to the music of Chuck Berry.

You will be missed!

Dwight Howard, the Atlanta Hawks’ Center was asked recently by ESPN as to whether he is a Basketball Hall of Famer.  He was pretty confident in his answer:

“No doubt. It’s kind of got swept under the rug because the perception of all the things that happened in Orlando. All of the media stuff. If you look at basketball itself, and I don’t ever talk about myself, but winning three Defensive Player of the Year trophies has never been done. Leading the league in rebounding six straight years. All that kind of stuff, I think that deserves it.”

Howard isn’t wrong.  Based on who is already in the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame, the big man should be able to get in.  This isn’t a knock against Howard, but the bar is a little lower for Springfield than it is for Cooperstown. 

Howard’s star has certainly fallen since the wishy-washy way he left Orlando and his ineffective runs in both Los Angeles and Houston.  He is certainly not the player he once was, but at one point Howard was without question the dominant Center in the NBA and was named to First Team All-NBA Selection five times.  That alone makes him a Hall of Famer whether he wins a ring or not…which he still has time to do!



With Wrestlemania only a few weeks away, the WWE Hall of Fame is naturally closing in.  As such, some of the inductors have been announced for this year’s inductees. 

Ricky “The Dragon” Steamboat had already been named the inductor for the late “Ravishing” Rick Rude, and today it has made known John Cena will be indicting Kurt Angle and Ron Simmons and John Bradshaw Layfield will be inducting Teddy Long.

Cena is an excellent choice.  His first televised match was against Angle, and in later feuds with the former Olympic Gold Medalist, Cena would become legitimized in the eyes of many WWE fans. 

Teddy Long once managed Ron Simmons when he was one half of Doom with Butch Reed in WCW.  Simmons and Layfield teamed together as the A.P.A. in the WWE and though they had no on screen relationship with Long on WWE television, they are all backstage friends.

We here at Notinhalloffame.com are looking forward to what we think should be entertaining speeches from this group of presenters.
