Couldn't be more deserving, greatest wrestler I've ever seen live or on TV. Though I've not seen (or hardly seen) the work of greats like Buddy Rogers, Ray Stevens, Harley Race + many others, IMO HBK is the most innovative, charismatic and talented worker definitely of the 90's-2000's, complete legend.

You think Taz could beat Rick Steiner in a shoot? Damn! The only fight on that list that would be Angle vs Shamrock. Imagine those two in UFC in their prime. Would be an epic.
Also well done to Shawn on getting his HoF induction. Sean Waltman's twitter says the rest of the Kliq will be there in attendance for his induction.

Yeah, might be wrong but I just get the impression that Taz was a seriously tough guy during his peak years in ECW. Definitely, Angle obviously is a legitimate hardman, + Shamrock always came across as the type of bloke who could explode and destroy someone at any minute.
Sweet, that will be so cool. All the Kliq members (not inc Justin Credible, if he ever actually was a member) deserve to go in it at some point, be awesome when Hall & Nash get their induction.

Hey a few wrestling games supposedly on the horizon in the next few months - WWE All-Stars (similar I believe to Legends of Wrestlemania but is has a mix of current stars & legends, + looks really arcade-style), Lucha Libre, + (I think / hope) a new TNA game.

Taz may be a tough guy, but Rick Steiner is one of the baddest dudes on the planet. The guy is huge and strong. Apparently his hands are like catchers mitts. Have a look at some of the shoot interviews around there from some of the guys around in the early 90s in WCW/WWF when the steiners were about. They were stiff as hell. If I had a choice i'd fight Taz every day.
I reckon a Kliq reunion at the end of the Sheamus vs Triple H match at Wrestlemania would be awesome. When was the last time all 5 members were in the ring together? Or even in the same company?

Ive never bought into the hype of Shawn Michaels. He is awful on the mic to such an extent that HHH carried him during DX and spent most of his career not willing to put people over. It was only during the twilight of his career that he started to put people over. In ring, hes no better than the likes of christian.

You're kidding right?
