The current WWE Hall of Fame logo, which has been used since the 2008 induction ceremony.

The WWE Hall of Fame is a hall of fame for professional wrestlers maintained by WWE. It was officially created on the February 1, 1993 episode of the then-World Wrestling Federation's (WWF)[1] Monday Night Raw television program.[2] On this episode, the sole induction of WWF alumnus André the Giant, who had died five days prior (January 27, 1993), was announced; his death was the reason for the creation of the Hall of Fame.[2][3]

In 2004, WWE relaunched the Hall of Fame to coincide with the twentieth WrestleMania.[4] This ceremony, like its predecessors, was not broadcast on television; however, it was released on DVD on June 1, 2004.[5] Beginning with the 2005 ceremony, WWE broadcast the final few inductions into the Hall of Fame on Spike TV (2005)[6] and on the USA Network (2006[7]–present[8]); these were aired on tape delay. The first inductions were broadcast on WWE's official website. The 2008 edition of the Hall of Fame was broadcast live on the USA Network.[8] Since 2005, the Hall of Fame ceremony has been packaged as part of that year's WrestleMania DVD release.[9] Although a building has never been built to represent the Hall of Fame, WWE has looked into constructing a facility for the Hall of Fame. In 2008, Shane McMahon, then-Executive Vice President of Global Media of WWE, stated that WWE had been storing wrestling memorabilia in a warehouse for years, with all items categorized and dated in case a facility is created.[10]

Induction into the Hall of Fame is dependent upon whether the candidate is on good terms with WWE. Former WWE employees who often criticize WWE or currently work with a different promotion have not been inducted.[11] Others, such as Bruno Sammartino, the longest-reigning WWE Champion in the title's history, have refused to be inducted, despite having been asked several times.[12] However, Sammartino has stated he would consider going into the Hall of Fame but would need to see more change from WWE.[13]

As of 2011, there have been a total of 97 inductees: 79 members inducted individually, six tag teams and one wrestling family.[14] Fifteen of the individual inductees have been inducted posthumously.[15]
