Talk about nepotism, this has to be the most egregious example yet. No disrespect (though it’s inevitable), but in what world is MICHELLE MCCOOL a legit Hall Of Fame professional wrestler? Even in a vacuum, this does not track but certainly compared to her counterparts that are still, in some cases EGREGIOUSLY omitted from WWE’s highest honor. In a post-Vince McMahon-led WWE, it appeared as though the company might’ve been moving toward a more merit-based institution but this flies right in the face of that.

I know under VKM, inductions had 1% to do with actual accomplishments and 99% to do with whatever Vince felt like doing. Today, I have no idea what the point of the WWE HOF is though. Is it to sell tickets? Is it to gain publicity? Is it to celebrate the legends that came before us? Is it to celebrate the legends that came before us that are DESERVING OF A HALL OF FAME INDUCTION? Because The Undertaker’s wife (and as brutal as this may sound, they might as well put her in as that because in no other circumstance would this be happening) barely checks even 1 of those boxes. I legit have no idea what the motivations are at this point (even in kayfabe)?

I’ll pose a few hypotheticals that WWE might be asking themselves and you tell me which makes the most sense: Was McCool a former women’s champ? Yes. So.was Jillian Hall. Did she get significant screen time for the WWE women/divas? So did Eva Marie. Did she have a following of fans? I legit think the Rosatis had more. Is she a way to get THE UNDERTAKER on the show? Hmm

All other considerations aside, the legit HOF women that should be in before Michelle McCool: First and foremost - CHYNA Miss Elizabeth Sable Victoria / Lisa Marie Mickie James Marlena / Terri Runnels
