spman 0 Report post Posted March 21, 2005 As we all know, the last time Nikolai Volkoff was seen in the WWF, Todd Pettingil found him homeless, sleeping on the streets of New York. Any chance they'll have him show up at the HOF in tatterd clothing and continue his homeless gimmick? I mean what else is he gonna talk about in regards to his WWF run? Jobbing to everybody on the roster? Sure, he was somewhat of a bigger name in the late 60's and 70's, but even today, the guy is rememberd as little more then a punchline to a couple of jokes, so why not just capitalize on that?

Guest Shadow Report post Posted March 21, 2005 the really interesting thing for me is who introduces Hogan? Ed Leslie or Brooke? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MillenniumMan831 0 Report post Posted March 21, 2005 Definitely Brooke. If Ed didn't look like shit, I'd say there might be an argument there but if isn't Brooke, it'll be Jimmy Hart. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest LooneyTune Report post Posted March 21, 2005 Clearly they will have to have Hassan introduce Iron Shiek. Little problem: The Iron Sheik is from IRAN, the enemy country of IRAQ, the country we hate and are "at war" with. Of course, that didn't stop WWE from pretending he was Iraw as Col. Mustafa but, still that wouldn't make much sense. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Downhome 0 Report post Posted March 21, 2005 I think we'll see Hassan at the HoF thing. We have Hogan's part being televised that night, so I think they are actually going to have an angle play out on that program, where Hassan shows up, and challenges Hogan to a match for the next night at WrestleMania. Having Hogan's induction televised is the perfect opportunity for them to set up that match, which could get quite a few more people to order the big show the following night.

MarvinisaLunatic 0 Report post Posted March 21, 2005 First of all, I just thought of how dumb it would be if they called the RKO the Orton Kutter.."Bah gawd Orton just gave him the OK!" Â Next, I fully expect the Soviet Anthem from Volkoff, Bob Orton to have the cast on and for Jimmy Hart to do his speech through a megaphone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest LooneyTune Report post Posted March 21, 2005 I want to see Hogan beat everyone up and Piper to give a coked out rant of a speech too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Shadow Report post Posted March 21, 2005 There's not a doubt that Orton's gonna be inducted by Randy and Orton will do a spot where he takes his jacket off but has problems and reveals the cast and goes "Damn Arm Injury". and the crowd will laugh and he smiles and gives his speech and likely puts randy over as a "great son that any father will be proud of and win or lose tomorow night, I'll be smiling and happy for him". Â The next night, Orton loses to Undertaker and Bob is ringside with other HOFer's for that segment and comes over the guardrail and helps randy up and boom~! RKO on daddy.

AlaskanHero 0 Report post Posted March 21, 2005 I want to see Randy Orton run in during someone's speech and RKO everyone there. The inductees, the presenters, Vince, any people watching, everyone there. Then when everyone is out cold and he's standing over their fallen bodies, he does his pose while his theme music plays. Â I would find that very entertaining. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vyce 0 Report post Posted March 21, 2005 Or that pimp tuxedo shirt DiBiase made him wear. THAT would be gold. Fuck, DiBiase should just be the one to give Volkoff's introduction speech. Â I normally don't give a shit about this HoF bullshit, but if DiBiase were to show up, in Million $ Man character, and talk about how he still owned Volkoff, etc, I might actually be tempted to buy whatever crummy DVD of this thing they happen to slap together.

Adam 0 Report post Posted March 21, 2005 Well technically Hussan is an 'Arab American' - he has never specified which Arab country his heritige comes from. So he could still introduce The Iron Sheik. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Notice no US flag along with the Soviet flag...or the "Property Of The Million Dollar Man" outfit. Â THis was 1992 Volkoff brought back to 2001. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest dreamer420 Report post Posted March 21, 2005 The Fall Of Fame ceremonies aren't for playing out gimmicks and angles. It is for wrestlers to be themselves, and make fun of all the stupid shit promoters made them do over time. Although at the same time I would love to see the Brown Suit brought out for this occasion.
