AEW Star Champions the Solo Hall of Fame Journey Inspired by WWE Legends

2 Min Read

Several AEW stars and wrestling veterans are advocating for two WWE Hall of Famers to receive individual induction, calling the decision straightforward. Sean Waltman, who was inducted in 2019 and 2020 as part of D-Generation X and NWO, is notably the only multi-class Hall of Famer without a solo induction.

Jeff Jarrett from AEW highlighted the need to address this on his My World Podcast, praising Waltman’s wrestling career across WWE and WCW. Jarrett emphasized Waltman’s impact from his early days facing Jerry Lynn to his various successful personas, including Syxx in the NWO, arguing the contributions clearly justify solo recognition.

The multi-time WWE Hall of Fame list includes stars like Booker T, Triple H, Kevin Nash, Scott Hall, Shawn Michaels, Ric Flair, Bret Hart, and Hulk Hogan, all inducted both individually and as part of teams or stables. Bret Hart was also set for a 2025 induction for his iconic WrestleMania 13 match against Stone Cold Steve Austin. Waltman has previously hinted at the possibility of further matches, indicating ongoing relevance.

Fan Take: This push for solo inductions spotlights AEW’s respect for wrestling history and its stars, bridging past legacies with the present. For AEW fans, it underscores the company’s commitment to honoring wrestling pioneers, which helps elevate the sport’s prestige and fan appreciation across generations.
