I'd say they both played a big part in legitimising Women's wrestling when they were active in the WWE.

Oh yeah no doubt. I didnt mean to take away from Trish. ..I just felt lita deserved it first...having come along first...

I screamed loudly.

She was really one of the few legitimate choices left, it was a farce they tried getting Kiebler back to get in but "settled" for Lita.

Trish better induct her, they should have inducted each other.

In all it's a really good HOF so far.

Tag Team (Demolition)
Cyndi Lauper
Legit Midcarder (from the 80's or 90's) - Rick Martel/Rick Rude

and it could be the best ever.

She's probably next in line for the celebrity wing, she played a big role in the first ever Mania. Her or Mr T will get in!

She deserves it, but I don't agree she deserved it before Trish. They were both popular but I think Trish in the end made more of an impact, but lets face it both were always going to end up in there just for how good they are so everyone's a winner!

Good for her, but I still think Chyna should already be in there. She was a MEGA STAR. Yes looking back now she was shabby in the ring and on the mic but she had a brilliant presence and a huge following.

First woman in the rumble.
First woman to legit mix it up with the guys.
First woman IC Champion.
Original DX member.
Amazing feuds with Y2J, Right to Censor, Jeff Jarrett etc.

Just because she does porn and hates Trips/Steph, tut tut.

Also I'd love to see Alundra/Madusa in their one day too, she was huge. & Luna Vachon for sheer contribution to the biz.

But Kelly ****ing Kelly will get inducted before the GOAT diva

I personally feel that Jacqueline and Ivory should have been inducted before Trish and Lita, but I suppose I'm biased towards them both since they're my favourite female wrestlers of all time.

I like Lita and Trish but I think it's unfair to say that they changed women's wrestling. I understand why they were inducted since their fan bases are huge, but in terms of talent Jacqueline and Ivory are amazing,

Ivory is one of if not THE best female heel the 'E have ever had. Her RTC era promos were something special. She could get heat from just blinking!

Is that the original Demolition of Ax and Smash and not Crush who came along later to replace Ax?

Happy to see Rick Rude in there, I'd like to see Randy Savage in, it's a disgrace he already isn't really. And The Ultimate Warrior, maybe not the best technical wrestler but played a big part along with Hogan and Savage in the early days of Vince's vision for how wrestling was going to go.

She suited RTC so well, but I loved Ivory just before that she she feuded with Mae Young and The Fabulous Moolah :laugh:

Her hardcore match with Tori will always stick out in my mind as well, bitch was crazy. :love:

Oh this is just who I'd like to see fit in, none of those have been made official yet, Cyndi probably will be :laugh:

But yes it'd have to be the original Demolition that goes in. <3.

Oh and Lita/Trish are the golden divas of the millenium, as much as I like Ivory myself, it was inevitable Trish/Lita would be in first, and yes, Chyna will sadly never be in, unless DX go in all together and they allow her in with them, I don't know her current stance on Steph/Hunter, she doesn't like to say on twitter.

Ultimate Warrior was announced for this year weren't he?
Savage will never be in unless his brother allows it but his bro is standing firm as he said Randy's wishes were for his whole family to be inducted together

Ivory, Jacqueline, Molly Holly and Victoria will all hopefully go in the WWE HOF in the next few years.

I agree about Chyna too sadly. I did like her a lot and a lot of her SL's, but outside issues will stop her from ever going in.

A person who I feel should be considered in years to come is Mickie James, oh my gosh she was amazing and I loved her work with Trish and Lita and all the over storylines/divas she worked with. I think even though she's left TNA maybe her ties to that company will prevent her from going in sadly?

Sable is worthy too, very popular and sexy in her era and she's married to Brock Lesnar, the WWE will want to keep him sweet.

Still hoping one day she's inducted. She should have won the title at least 2/3 times but Sable being the bitch she was back then refused to drop it to her, "forgetting" to bring her belt to shows where she'd lose it etc.

Luna Vachon (yes, one of THE Vachons): She had great feuds with Sherri, Madusa and Sable, managed Bam Bam Bigelow, Gangrel (her then husband), Tommy Dreamer, Goldust (in Goldust's best 'era' imo as "The Artist Formerly Known As...", HBK amongst many others. Was in the 'E, WCW and ECW (competing in cage matches against Raven/Stevie Richards). She was an incredible wrestler and was just awesome. Promos, "look" etc... R.I.P. Luna.

And I disliked Michelle McCool a lot, but concede that she worked hard and had talent, but the main factor if she ever went in is how timed her getting with Undertaker was at the time she was getting a lot of attention.

Hope Michelle doesn't get in though and I always thought Layla was better than her anyway- Controversial opinion alert.

Lol at some people saying Ivory and Jacqueline deserved it more then Trish and Lita, no one got reactions like Trish Heel or Face.. Remember WM when she made one of the greatest heel turns ever and she also made one of the best face turns ever at Mania just a few years before that, constantly involved in massive story lines throughout her career with Y2J, Christian, Angle, HHH, Vince.. Not to mention the amazing matches she has been involved in against Victoria in the no DQ match and Unforgiven 06 against Lita, Ivory and Jacqueline are not even in the same league, all I remember Jacqueline for is being APA's little lacky

Well I'm not denying the fact that they had the best reactions and are possibly the most popular divas WWE will ever have, but Ivory and Jacqueline wrestled far better than Lita and Trish for me. And that's a good enough reason for them to be in the hall of fame.

It's all a matter of opinion :laugh:

Novo
14-02-2014, 05:01 PM
You can have your opinion but most people and the Wwe will disagree with you, Ivory had a great character but she wasn't all that talented in the ring and Jacqueline was used mainly as a manager then a wrestler, Trish and Lita are known for having the best matches of the early 00s not Ivory or Jacqueline

Black Dagger
14-02-2014, 05:59 PM
Trish and Lita were always the bigger names and had the biggest women's feud of all time and probably had the best American based female match-up as well when they main evented RAW, the only one that comes close for me is Amazing Kong & Gail Kim.

As good as Ivory and Jacqueline were, they aren't going to get 'THAT RING' and a chance to produce a 45 minute speech.

(I'd sort of like a triple whammy Hardy Boyz/Trish induction for Lita but with Jeff in TNA and Matt probably scoffing his face or punching his wife, I doubt that will happen)

Alf

Should be an interesting night, looking forward to see what kind of reception the Warrior gets, I expect there will be a lot of boo's, but I was a Warrior back in the day so I'm chuffed for him, what ever people think of him he was one of the all time great characters of WWF/WWE.

About time, definitely the embodiment of female empowerment and individuality in WWE in the new millennium. Yeah Chyna did it all before her but she was never in it to represent women, she was in it to represent herself; the storylines Chyna had were very much geared towards being a novelty act (i.e. being female and wrestling men for titles that had only ever been contested by men) - Lita, and Trish, were the real stars of women's wrestling and I'm glad Lita's been acknowledged for that.

Lita is amazing and this is so deserved, I used to watch wresting when my brother was into it and I fell in love with Lita and Trish, I'll always remember Lita doing stunts like taking finishers (believably) off of massive stars and her teaming up with the Hardys.

I agree Chyna should be in there but I think Lita and Trish made women's wrestling more than just filler, I wish the WWE had kept on that track and kept bringing in genuinely talented and beautiful girls in who could mix it up with the boys.
