SPOILER: This Week's WWE HOF Announcement is...

Scheduled to be announced for the WWE 2015 Hall of Fame Class tomorrow on Raw will be Madusa, who held the WWF, WCW and AWA Women's championship.

As Alundra Blayze, WWE built their women's division around her in the early 1990s. When she was released from the company and retained possession of the belt, she returned to WCW during the height of the Monday Night War and in one of the more famous moments of the war, dropped the WWF title into a trash can on live TV.

While the announcement will come as a surprise, it fits the mold of WWE reaching out to estranged talents and putting old controversies to bed via the Hall of Fame, as seen in recent years with Bruno Sammartino and The Ultimate Warrior. Note from Mike: There's no word as who will induct her, but personally, I would love to see Paul Heyman do the honors as they worked closely in WCW with Madusa a big part of The Dangerous Alliance era, specifically with Rick Rude.

I'm not a fan of this one, either. It feels like they're putting her in because of this self-imposed quote that you need one woman. She's just not a Hall of Famer IMO.

And that's not even considering that she took a complete dump on the Women's Title, which may have had something to do with how Bret was treated on his way out.
Reality TV is faker than "fake" wrestling!

let's be honest, WWE itself has taken bigger dumps over that title, for all i know she made it seem like it was worth something.

It definitely had something to do with the Bret thing.

Also, with the belt, Vince could have still tried to do Women's wrestling with real wrestlers if he wanted. With the way she shat on it, he didn't have any choice but to go the "women as T&A" route.

Not before that point, though. This was (IMO) the major impetus for the way Women's wrestling was treated in WWE for years afterwards.
