It is time to pay the final respect to the head honcho of WWE. Vince McMahon ran the WWE for four decades and the company really thrived under his reign. McMahon was the guy who tried to do a little extra for the business, from getting his head shaved to being buried under an exploding stage. Now the big question is, will this legend receive the appropriate farewell that he deserves?
Vince McMahon’s sudden retirement from the WWE has been creating a lot of buzz for a while. WWE had started an investigation on McMahon based on the allegations of him paying hush money to former female employees for sexual misconduct. In addition, the company is trying to avoid establishing any relations with the former chairperson as the investigation continues.

The rumors of Vince McMahon getting inducted into the Hall of Fame class of 2023 came out a couple of days ago. The U.S. Sun claimed that an insider opened up about the possibility of McMahon being in the Hall of Fame. “There are discussions about how to pay tribute to his achievements of turning the small town wrestling biz into a global business venture.”
The news spread like wildfire on amazon. Netizens have their own verdict on the rumor and Twitter doesn’t stop anyone from displaying their feelings as well.
Fans reacted to the news of Vince McMahon being inducted into the Hall of Fame
The WWE fandom had mixed reactions to the news. Some appreciated the idea of the former CEO’s induction, while others opposed it.
As usual, people started giving their own thoughts on the matter.
He owns the most successful wrestling company on history, he's made some sketchy business decisions and had some affairs but he's earned his spot on the HoF.

And rightfully so.
Wrestling wouldn't exist as we know it without vince mcmahon.

In some people’s opinion, Mr. McMahon truly deserves the honor, as pro wrestling wouldn’t be the same without his contribution.
Not that he doesn't deserve it on merit, but maybe wait until he's done being investigated…

It'll never happen but would be epic if he had all the top stars over the years as a part of his induction at the HOF

One fan said it would be epic to see all the WWE superstars recruited by Vince McMahon giving him the lifetime achievement honor.
He does deserve it if we are talking about it “pro wrestling and sports entertainment” wise but I guess it’s way too early. Maybe in 3-5 years? Idk

Some suggested that the company must wait a couple of years before inducting Vinny Mac into the HoF.

The company even avoided wishing the former chairperson on his 77th birthday last month. In all likelihood, if the event happens, it will surely be the biggest news in pro wrestling for days.
