Wendi Richter

We thought hell froze over when Bret Hart got inducted, but the when the recipient of the “New York City Screwjob” got inducted we wondered if Hell collapsed.  Considering that Wendi Richter’s last appearance in a WWE ring was losing the Women’s Title to the Fabulous Moolah (which she was not scheduled to do) and her subsequent departure from the company, it would be difficult to think that anyone thought she was going to go to the Hall of Fame.  We are glad that she did get inducted, because for those who don’t remember, Wendi Richter was one of the most popular wrestlers (male or female) in the WWE in 1985 and was herself a huge part of the Rock and Wrestling Wars.  She deserves to be in primarily for her work in 1984 and 1985 alone.
