Here is your fight size update following the 2024 WWE Hall of Fame ceremony.
Below are highlights from the event and a quick recap of the notable moments from the evening.
- The Undertaker inducted Muhammad Ali into the celebrity wing of the Hall of Fame. Unlike recent appearances, Undertaker came out to his traditional theme song with his traditional purple lighting. Fans can check out a video of Undertaker inducting Ali above.
- The Rock Presented With The People's Championship By Muhammad Ali's Widow Lonnie
- Mike Rotunda and Barry Windham, the US Express, were inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame this year. They were inducted by Mike's children Taylor Rotunda, better known as Bo Dallas, and Mika Rotunda. The Rotunda family paid tribute to Bray Wyatt, Windham Rotunda, who sadly passed away in 2023.
- Paul Heyman's speech was exactly what you would expect from Paul Heyman in Philadelphia. It was vulgar, and inspiring, and made sure to set the stage for future Paul Heyman moments. During his speech, Heman mentioned Brock Lesnar, said he would always be a Paul Levesque guy and called attention to Stephanie McMahon, who was sitting alongside Triple H. Stephanie was wearing an ECW cap, similar to what she would wear during the days of the alliance in 2001 when she was the on-camera owner of ECW.
