All seems a bit too recent for my liking.

All Time Greats:

Hackenschmidt
Assirati
Garfield

Notice how first names are not necessary with the true greats. That's a sure sign.

From the modern era:

Kendo Nagasaki
Mick McManus
Masambula

From the recently deceased:

Les Kellett
The Great Bartelli
Mal Kirk (anyone who dies in the ring deserves a special mention)

Visiting stars:

John Guil Don
Quasimodo
Georges Gordienko

Unsung Heroes:

Sid Cooper
John Naylor
Andy Robin

Special services to Wrestling:

Mr Joe D'Orazio
Ray Plunkett
Kent Walton

and in time-honoured fashion, last up it's tag-team-time:

The Hells Angels
The Black Diamonds
The Royals

Now, we've got seven categories here, just like the seven weight classses.

All we need now are Commonwealth, European and even Southern Area Halls of Fame!

OK I stayed out of this because I didn't really see the point - as asked previously, what is a Hall of Fame?

Anglo Italian has given a bit of order to this, so I'm inspired to join in, but not inspired to be creative so I'll follow his format:

All Time Greats:
Hackenschmidt - the man who brought wrestling into the modern era
Assirati - arguably Britain's best ever heavyweight
Jack Pye - because he became a household name without television

Modern Era:
Billy Robinson
George Kidd
Mick McManus

Recently Deceased:
Count Bartelli
Pat Roach
Bill Joyce

Visiting Stars:
Lou Thesz
Peter Maivia
Billy Two Rivers

Unsung Heroes:
Alan Wood
Peter Preston
Eric Taylor

Special Services:
Billy Riley
Kent Walton

Tag Teams:
The Royal Brothers
McManus & Logan
Alan Dennison & Sid Cooper

had Dynamite as number one on my list!!!!

Sorry Sax I stand corrected.

No Melvin - you don't have to be dead to be enshrined into (for example) the NFL Hall Of Hame, simply retired for 5 years.


Thanks, mate

Tag Teams:
The Royal Brothers
McManus & Logan
Alan Dennison & Sid Cooper

Good list, mate, but if you have the Dirty Dennisons you've surely got to consider Barnes and Street?

And I always though Finlay and Murphy were a good latter-day team in the McManus/Logan mould.

l am willing to accept emails and organise a Hall of fame - what do others think ?

So, top, are we going anywhere with this? You've had lots of suggestions, mostly in a disorderly array. Do you want to bring some order to this? We await your further instructions.
