On a related note, The Observer reports that WWE Hall of Famer Bret Hart is hoping that The Hart Foundation will be inducted into the Hall, mainly so Jim "The Anvil" Neidhart will be honored as he's currently battling significant health issues. Apparently there is concern that if the induction doesn't come now, Neidhart may not be able to enjoy it and perform in front of the crowd. It was also noted that the induction would mean a lot to the father of Natalya at this stage of his life. Bret and Jim previously teamed as The Hart Foundation but the group later had a run with Bret, Neidhart, Owen Hart, Brian Pillman and The British Bulldog as members.

Other rumored names for this year's induction ceremony include The Dudley Boyz, Ivory and the late Bam Bam Bigelow, plus Kid Rock going into the Celebrity Wing. Those names have not been confirmed but there's been speculation on WWE possibly announcing The Dudleys in the next few weeks, perhaps at the RAW 25th Anniversary as where they will be appearing live.
