What was a charitable move by the McMahon family in offering her a job and an on screen role following the death of her husband, Eddie Guerrero resulted in what would become one of the biggest non-wrestling heels of all time.

Although Matt Hardy and Jeff Hardy would go on to have solo careers with varying degrees of success, we can’t help but think that if the innovators from Cameron, North Carolina ever get inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame, it will be as the Hardy Boys tag team; which is how many wrestling fans (including us) still think of them as. In the WWE they were incredibly successful and as long as they keep their personal matters above water in the latter half of their career, they should eventually get in.

We don’t think we will see that many more appearances on television of Stephanie McMahon, but the “Billionaire Princess” was a featured performer in the late Attitude Era, and though she was overexposed, her character was a decent one, and still is well remembered. As she is a top executive in the company, her role in the WWE will likely continue for decades. We will likely rank her soon.

The WWE was often criticized for not utilizing the skills of Shelton Benjamin to greater use, as he was easily amongst the greatest athletes the organization ever had. We are still hoping to see the Gold Standard return to the WWE, but if he does, we can only hope to see him used in a better role. If he never does return, did he do enough to be considered a serious WWE Hall of Fame contender? It looks bleak at the moment.
