5 WWE Superstars who rejected a Hall of Fame induction
The Hall of Fame has become an annual tradition in WWE over the past few decades, and some of the most iconic names in the business have been added to the class.
Each year WWE includes a female superstar, a tag team, a celebrity, and a number of legends who deserve to be immortalized alongside the most elite in the history of the company.
Whilst many current and former WWE Superstars strive to be part of the WWE Hall of Fame, there are others who have rejected the opportunity.
Several former stars have made it clear that they are not interested in taking their place in the company's Hall of Fame. You can watch the video as well.

Scott Steiner had quite the career in both WWE and WCW, but it appears that he is another superstar who has been quite outspoken about the Hall of Fame.
The former tag team champion has become well-known for being rather outspoken and opinionated, something that was confirmed when he opened up about the Hall of Fame back in 2018.
The former star unleashed quite the rant about the company as part of an interview on the Sitting Ringside podcast and how fake the Hall of Fame was.
“First off, where in the f**k is the Hall Of Fame? How can you be in the Hall Of Fame if it doesn’t exist? It exists in Vince’s mind. Do I give a f**k if I rent space in Vince’s mind? F**k no, I don’t give a f**k what he thinks. So, I don’t care if I’m in the Hall Of Fame because it’s a f**king joke because it don’t exist." H/T via Cagesideseats.com
In a later interview with WrestlingInc, Steiner was able to elaborate on his previous comments.
“so sick of talking about it [Hall Of Fame] because it is so stupid. People take it so seriously. Some guys really just mark out for themselves and think of how great it is. It is freaking fake”
Steiner is currently still active at the age of 59 and is signed to National Wrestling Alliance.
Steiner made a surprise return to the company back in December 2019 and has become an in-ring talent for NWA over the past two years.
