WWEAlongside Eudy, McMahon, Styles, and Demolition (Bill “Ax” Eadie and Barry “Smash” Darsow), WWE has announced Dennis Rodman, Bad News Brown, and Hogan vs. Andre as members of its 2026 Hall of Fame class. For JBL, the inclusion of Demolition, former WWE World Tag Team Champions, is particularly exciting.
“It’s a heck of a class,” JBL said. “And I see those Demolition guys a lot. I knew Barry a little bit when I first started. Barry Darsow when I started. Didn’t know Bill [Eadie] except for I met him in the last few years. Really good guys, and I’m very happy for those guys. Those are good dudes. They deserve to be in there. You know, there’s a little animosity going on with some lawsuits that have gone back and forth. Now that’s kind of water on the bridge, so I’m glad they’re going in.”
Hogan vs. Andre from WrestleMania 3 serves as this year’s “Immortal Moment,” especially given Hogan’s aforementioned slam to Andre in the match. Elsewhere, Rodman will enter the celebrity wing of the Hall of Fame, while Bad News Brown will receive a posthumous induction like Eudy. Styles’ respective honor comes just months after he retired from in-ring competition at the 2026 Royal Rumble. McMahon, in addition to her in-ring contributions, is known as the former WWE Chairwoman and Co-CEO.
The 2026 Hall of Fame ceremony will emanate from Dolby Live at Park MGM in Las Vegas on Friday, April 17 at 9pm PT. The WrestleMania 42 go-home episode of “WWE SmackDown” will precede it.
