This year's WWE Hall of Fame ceremony takes place tonight (Sat., April 6, 2013) at Madison Square Garden in New York, and features the following class of inductees, quite possibly the deepest in history: Bruno Sammartino, Bob Backlund, Mick Foley, Booker T, Trish Stratus, and Donald Trump. The above photo is a sneak peek at the stage set up, courtesy of Stephanie McMahon's Twitter. Nice and simple, unlike the WrestleMania 29 stage set up inside MetLife Stadium in New Jersey. Like it?
King Kong Bundy Twitter teased his fans that he would be the next name announced for the 2013 WWE Hall of Fame. "Sounds like someone listened to the #Bundyholics regarding my Hall of Fame. Huge announcement tomorrow night #FIVE." Photo: John Mena UPDATE: Phenomenal troll job by Bundy, who was announced for the Pro Wrestling Report Hall of Fame on April 5 in New York. He used WWE to draw a few extra eyeballs to an event that has no affiliation whatsoever to WWE. Well played.
