Long before she set foot in the WWE, Jackie Moore was kicking ass and taking names fighting more men than women in the USWA.  Jacqueline had proved herself to be a top flight wrestler and finally received her due on the national stage competing for WCW.  She wouldn’t stay there long, and she would soon join the WWE roster giving Sable a credible opponent.  She was tough and sexy and had a passion for wrestling.  She was recently released from TNA and likely has completed in her last match.  As the first African American Woman of note in wrestling, she may not make the Hall of Fame, but she established a very impressive footnote for herself.

He was wild, crazy looking and with a thick Argentine accent, Pampero Firpo stood out in what was a very colorful crowd.  Firpo had a natural look of a heel, and wrestled in a style that would predate the Hardcore scene that would popularize wresting later.  Despite his crazy look, Firpo did have a natural charisma that allowed him to have a very successful face run against the Sheik in the Detroit area.  Firpo also popularized the elongated “Ohhhh Yeahhhhh” phrase long before Randy Savage, though if those two words can’t get the Macho Man in, we don’t think it will do much for Firpo.

Tiger Jeet Singh came to Canada penniless from his native India, but he certainly had plans to change that.  With wrestling becoming his meal ticket, Singh would become a star in the Toronto territory and cement himself as the top heel in the region.  Singh would find his real fortune in Japan, where he carved out a name for himself as the wild sword wielding grappler who terrorized fans.  He would get wins over Inoki in Japan and Canek in Mexico in his prime.  Singh has promoted cards all over the world and truly is a star internationally, but he did have limited exposure to the WWE Universe.  That will likely be the primary reason to exclude him from the Hall.

Two Nature Boys in Professional Wrestling seems like a lot, but three seems like overkill.  The third “Nature Boy” was Buddy Landel, who was a talented wrestler who struggled to escape mid card status.  Occasionally, promoters would let his talent prevail and trust him to headline cards and grant him championships, but Landel was deemed unreliable overall and despite his great skill set, he was difficult to trust.  Landel did make the WWE as part of a talent exchange with SMW, but his time there is hardly indicative of a Hall of Fame career.
