Every fan knows that with WrestleMania season comes the annual Hall of Fame induction ceremony, but WrestleMania season was a little different this year due to the coronavirus pandemic.
WrestleMania was moved to the Performance Center in Orlando, and the Hall of Fame induction ceremony was postponed.
There were rumors that the company hoped to hold the ceremony during SummerSlam week, but WWE also had high hopes that SummerSlam would take place with actual fans in attendance, and that didn’t happen.
Now WrestleVotes is reporting that the expectation is WWE will be running shows without fans until at least November.
The current plan is to push the 2020 class back to 2021, and have the induction ceremony take place sometime around WrestleMania 37.
Batista, JBL, The Bella Twins, Jushin Thunder Liger, The British Bulldog and the NWO have all been confirmed for the class.
WWE’s plan regarding the 2020 Hall of Fame was to do it at a corresponding PPV once fans returned, ideally SummerSlam. That obviously didn’t happen. With no fans until November at the earliest, the plan is now to induct the 2020 class as the class of 2021 during WrestleMania 37.
