Nominations For The 2024 LOP/WH Hall of Fame Induction Class
Wrestling fans worldwide,
For the eleventh consecutive year, we at WrestlingHeadlines.com are continuing our annual tradition of inducting a new class into the LOP/WH Hall of Fame.
The LOP/WH Hall of Fame consists of professional wrestlers and professional wrestling matches that you, the readers of LOP/WH, nominate and vote on. Across WrestleMania Week, special “induction” columns dedicated to each inductee will be posted as part of our “LOP/WH Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony,” a week-long celebration of wrestling’s past.
LOP/WH Hall Of Fame Nomination Information
We would like you to nominate one male singles wrestler, one female singles wrestler, one tag team or faction, one wrestling personality, and a predominantly mid-card singles wrestler. Nominations are also open this year for all-time great wrestling matches
This year’s nomination round will begin on Tuesday, March 12 and close on Saturday, March 16 at 11:59PM EST. You can nominate by clicking on the Google form link OR leaving a comment in the comment section.
At that time, nominations will be compiled and an official “Hall of Fame” ballot will be put together for readers to vote on in order to decide the final LOP/WH Hall of Fame Class of 2024.
Please read the following carefully and then follow the link to access the official nominations form.
Eligibility Criteria
1) A singles nominee must be at least 3 years removed from his / her last singles match at the time of nomination – round up for someone who is on the cusp of the 3 year cutoff.
2) The above cut off applies only to a major promotion. For the purposes of this Hall of Fame, independent promotions will NOT be considered at this time. Suggested promotions to choose from include WWE, WCW-NWA (all major regions), AWA, and ECW (for its influence and popularity). You may also nominate someone from an international promotion such as New Japan or AAA.
3) Matches nominated must be from at least 5 years ago to allow for thorough and proper historical perspective to be gained and the test of time to be passed. *Note that these matches can include active superstars*
4) Wrestlers in factions or tag teams will be considered separate from their singles nominations, so if you want to nominate The Shield, for instance, then go right ahead, as even though Reigns, Ambrose & Rollins are not eligible for singles inductions, The Shield has been defunct for several years.
5) Predominantly Mid-card wrestler is an expression open to interpretation, but think of this category as the place for everyone from talents who never rose above Intercontinental or United States (or Cruiserweight, etc.) Title level to those who may have won a recognized World Championship but who never really achieved the consistency necessary to change their perception to that of a main event talent.
6) Any previously inducted singles male wrestler will not be considered, regardless of whether or not they were inducted in the Mid-card category.
Please refer to the Hall of Fame list below to avoid repeat nominations.
Thank you and we look forward to your participation in continuing to make this a great yearly tradition.
