WWE Hall Of Famer ‘Doesn’t Understand’ Not Being Invited To The Undertaker’s Hall Of Fame Induction

WWE

The Undertaker is one of the most iconic wrestlers in the history of the industry, so it’s hard to even imagine a time where he was an unknown prospect in wrestling.

Fast forward 40 years, and Mark Calaway is now rightfully in the WWE Hall of Fame, being inducted back in 2022, but one WWE Hall of Famer had issue with not being invited.

Speaking to Sportskeeda, WWE Hall of Famer Sgt. Slaughter discussed discovering Calaway early in his career, as well as calling it a ‘slap in the face’ that he wasn’t invited to his Hall of Fame induction.

He said:

“I found Mark Calaway in a box of tapes. As a lot of people know, my back was hurt. I had to go work in the office… I had all these tapes and boxes and envelopes and pictures and letters from wannabe wrestlers and managers and valets and announcers. I said to Vince, ‘You gotta see this guy,’ [Vince] said, ‘Well, I’ve never heard of him, so bring him in.’

“Guess who he didn’t invite to his Hall of Fame? Me, Sgt Slaughter, the guy that found him. Can you imagine not being invited? I should have been in the front row. That was a slap in the face right there, I really don’t understand it.”

Sgt Slaughter recently got involved in a war of words with WWE’s Lacey Evans, with Slaughter claiming he doesn’t watch the show due to Lacey being featured.
