WRESTLING RUMORS: WWE Changes WrestleMania Plans, Possible New Main Event

New plan! We are less than three weeks away from WrestleMania 39, which will feature some of the biggest WWE matches of the year.

The Less The Merrier: WWE Reportedly Making A Change For This Year’s Hall Of Fame Class

Still works. We are coming up on WrestleMania weekend and that means it is time for a lot of things to start coming together.

There is no word on how many names will be included in the induction ceremony, which is set for March 31. There is one big..

Of Course: 60 Year Old WWE Legend Inducts Himself Into Hall Of Fame, Accuses Miz Of Theft

It’s part of his thing. There are certain wrestlers who become popular with the fans for one reason or another, but in some cases their popularity rises after they hang up their boots. It can be rather interesting to see what a wrestler comes up once their career is over. This is certainly true with a former WWE star, who now thinks that his gimmick has been stolen by someone who came along later. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: BREAKING: WWE Possibly NXT Women’s Title, New Champion To Be Crowned Former WWE star Virgil has taken to Instagram, announcing that he has been inducted into the WWE Hall Of Fame. He thanked his favorite opponents in the business, including names such as Andre the Giant, Randy Savage and Bret Hart, along with the “million dollar dandy El Dandy”. Finally, Virgil thanked Damage CTRL for allowing him to be their hero and accused the Miz of stealing his gimmick. There is nothing to suggest that WWE has inducted Virgil into the Hall Of Fame.
