5 legends we want to see in the WWE HOF

Sting will be inducted into the WW HOF this yearSting has already been announced as the first inductee to the 2016 class of the WWE HOF. Sting is indeed a legendary figure and his exploits with WCW surely warrants an entry into the overall Pro Wrestling Hall of Fame, but his exploits within the WWE hasn’t been stellar.While the man who has wrestled two matches in the company and wasn’t booked to win in any of them will be inducted into the HOF in March, there are many others who are conspicuous by their absence in the HOF list.This slideshow takes a look at those wrestlers, many of them who should have been inducted long back.

#5 Daniel Bryan

An early retirement

This list begins with the most obvious choice from the moment he announced his retirement from the WWE, Daniel Bryan. True, Bryan might have spent just about five years with the company, but his impact cannot be understated.

The man has won every title in the WWE – the Heavyweight, Intercontinental, United States, Tag team championships – you name it, Bryan has won it. But more important than that, he was the most over superstar ever since the old days when the Rock and Stone Cold used to electrify the crowd.

WWE might have missed a huge opportunity to cash in on his popularity by foolishly booking him poorly during the majority of his tenure. Even the show featuring his retirement failed to rise to the level that a similar episode involving Edge five years prior did.

But Bryan will be remembered as a true WWE legend for how well he connected with the fans and how his popularity forced the company to alter the main event of WrestleMania. Put him in the HOF already!!
