Last night's WWE Hall of Fame was seen as a disappointment to many, especially those there live. For the first time the company enforced strict time constraints giving 2 and a half minutes for the inductor and 5 minutes for the inductee. There was even a huge digital clock that counted down each person, causing poor people like Howard Finkel to rush like crazy.

The main problem here is that WWE wants the show to air on the USA Network in the one hour format, but if it goes long it gives the editors a hell of a job to get all of the important bits. In previous years they've edited it after the fact, but this year the live show itself was only just over 2 hours long.

There was also the usual problem with disrespectful fans dressing like they are on the beach and catcalling the wrestlers.

WWE will need to make the decision next year whether to continue in this format or negotiate a later slot for USA.
