WWE Hall of Fame Inductors Revealed
The inductors have been named for the 2025 WWE Hall of Fame, including The Undertaker and Shawn Michaels.
One of the big events during WWE’s upcoming WrestleMania 41 takeover in Las Vegas is the Hall of Fame ceremony that will take place on Friday, April 18th.
This year’s Hall of Fame ceremony will take place at the Fontainebleau Las Vegas at 1 A.M. ET, which is 10 P.M. locally in Las Vegas, about two hours after SmackDown ends.
A graphic was shown during WWE SmackDown in Seattle that revealed who will be inducting this year’s Hall of Fame honorees.
* WWE Chief Content Officer Paul “Triple H” Levesque will be inducted by Shawn Michaels. When Michaels was inducted in 2011, Triple H was his inductor.
* Lex Luger will be inducted by Diamond Dallas Page.
* Michelle McCool will be inducted by The Undertaker, who is married to McCool.
* Immortal Moment: Bret Hart vs. Steve Austin from WrestleMania 13 will be inducted by CM Punk, who is a huge fan of both men, and the match took place in Chicago, which is Punk’s hometown.
* The Natural Disasters (Earthquake & Typhoon) will also be inducted in the Hall of Fame, but nobody appeared on the graphic with them. Perhaps WWE is likely working on it in terms of who will induct them.
There will also be Legacy wing inductees at the Hall of Fame: Kamala, Dory Funk Sr. and Ivan Koloff.
Lex Luger Wanted Sting To Induct Him Into WWE Hall Of Fame
One of the stories going into this year’s WWE Hall of Fame ceremony was whether the Hall of Famer Sting would be there to induct Lex Luger. Sting has a contract with AEW even though he stopped wrestling a year ago, so if Sting were to appear at the Hall of Fame for his good friend Luger then AEW would need to approve it.
While speaking to Bill Apter of Sportskeeda, Lex Luger once again reiterated that he would like Sting to be with him at the WWE Hall of Fame ceremony.
“Yeah, they were asking me about who could induct me and have an inductor or an introducer, whatever they call them. And I said, obviously, DDP has been working with me so much in the past. I’m so thankful. I’d love for him to be out there.
But I go, man, my dream would be — have you ever had a twofur? Two guys out there for somebody?’ They can kind of spot me. So if I try walking and I start to fall, I can have my two best buddies spot me on my shoulders. There’s your money shot. Sting on one side of me, and Dallas on the other, making sure I don’t fall while I’m up there.
I’m a brevity speaker. So I’ll only be up there for a few minutes speaking from the heart, but with gratitude and thanks. But to have both those guys there, I ran it by WWE guys, Triple H’s right-hand man, ‘Oh, I know what you’re gonna ask. Well, I have to run that up the flag pole. But, man, I don’t know.’ I haven’t had an answer back on that.
Obviously, maybe selfishly, I think it’d be great for the fans, too. I mean, I just think it would be a classy thing to allow him up there.
Now WWE may allow them up there, but he’d also have to have permission from Tony Khan and AEW. So there’s a lot of moving parts there. But ideally, obviously, I would love to see both of those guys up there with me. That would be huge for me, and I think it would be special for the fans.”
Based on the graphic shown on WWE SmackDown, it appears that Sting likely won’t be there to induct Luger, but DDP will be there to support his friend.
