WOR: WON Hall of Fame ballot with Mike Tenay (Part 1)
Wrestling Observer Radio with Dave Meltzer and myself, Garrett Gonzales is back. Joining us to discuss the Wrestling Observer Hall of Fame ballot is someone who is actually on the ballot, Mike Tenay. This is part one of our discussion.
We open up the show talking more about Harold Meij leaving New Japan. We then discuss some of the COVID-19 issues WWE is dealing with before then talking about AEW Dynamite’s one year anniversary.
We then look at the candidates who were close to being elected to the Wrestling Observer Hall of Fame last year but just missed, the candidates who need to get 50% of the votes in order to not be dropped from the ballot, and the new and returning candidates. We’ll tackle all of the categories in part two.
