Boletín informativo del Wrestling Observer Salón de la fama

El Salón de la Fama del Wrestling Observer Newsletter ( WON ) es un salón de la fama de la lucha libre profesional y las artes marciales mixtas (MMA) que reconoce a las personas que hacen contribuciones significativas a sus profesiones. Fue fundado en 1996 por Dave Meltzer , editor de WON . Al igual que muchos otros salones de la fama de la lucha libre, como los salones de la fama de la WWE , TNA , ROH y WCW , el Salón de la Fama de WON no está contenido en un edificio, y no hay ceremonias de inducciones más allá de una documentación biográfica muy detallada de su carrera en el boletín. Los inducidos incluyen luchadores/combatientes, gerentes , promotores , entrenadores y comentaristas . En ocasiones selectas, se han incluido grupos, ya sean equipos de etiqueta , tríos o cuartetos, en lugar de los miembros individuales del grupo. Esto ocurrió por primera vez en 1996, cuando The Fabulous Kangaroos y The Road Warriors ingresaron al salón. Los Fabulous Freebirds , The Midnight Express , The Rock 'n' Roll Express , The Assassins , The Holy Demon Army , The Sharpe Brothers , Los Misioneros de la Muerte y Los Brazos , entre otros, también ingresaron como grupos. Ocasionalmente, familias enteras de luchadores han sido incluidas en el salón. Esto ocurrió por primera vez en 1996 cuando The Dusek Family ingresó al salón; en 2022, el equipo familiar de cinco hombres de Los Villanos fue incluido.

A partir de 2022, se hizo posible que un luchador sea incluido en el Salón de la Fama varias veces, al igual que los incluidos en el Salón de la Fama del Rock and Roll . Hasta ahora, cinco personas han logrado este doble honor: Toshiaki Kawada , Villano III , Antonino Rocca , Jack Brisco y Jackie Sato . Cada uno es incluido como artista individual y miembro de un equipo (Kawada como parte de Holy Demon Army , Villano III como parte de Los Villanos, Rocca como parte de Rocca and Perez, Jack Brisco como parte de Brisco Brothers y Jackie Sato como parte de Beauty Pair).

Meltzer comenzó el Salón de la Fama eligiendo una lista de 122 inducidos inaugurales en 1996. Desde entonces, luchadores del pasado y del presente, otros empleados en la industria de la lucha libre profesional y periodistas e historiadores de lucha libre han sido seleccionados por Meltzer para emitir votos secretos para determinar los grupos anuales de inducidos. Los criterios de votación incluyen el tiempo dedicado a la lucha libre, la importancia histórica, la capacidad de atraer espectadores y la habilidad de lucha libre. [1] Los inducidos deben tener al menos 15 años de experiencia o ser mayores de 35 años y tener 10 años de experiencia. Para obtener la membresía en el salón, los potenciales inducidos deben recibir el 60% de apoyo en las boletas de su región geográfica. [2] Cualquier persona que obtenga menos del 10% de los votos es eliminada de la boleta. Si una persona no es incluida 15 años después de haber sido incluida en la boleta, debe obtener el 50% de los votos o ser eliminada. [3] Hay 255 incluidos, incluidos los equipos múltiples, tríos y establos.

En 2008, se llevó a cabo una votación revocatoria para preguntar si Chris Benoit , quien había sido incluido en el Salón en 2003 y había matado a su esposa e hijo antes de suicidarse en junio de 2007, debía permanecer en el Salón. Para que Benoit fuera destituido, Meltzer exigió que el 60% de los votantes estuviera de acuerdo con la propuesta. [4] Aunque la mayoría votó a favor de la destitución de Benoit, solo representaron el 53,6% de los votos, cifra inferior a la requerida. Benoit sigue en la lista de incluidos. [5]
