When Daniel Bryan announced his retirement earlier this month there was immediately talk among fans about how he should be inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame this year in Dallas.
For what it’s worth, it was noted on Wrestling Observer Live by Bryan Alvarez that he heard Bryan could be going in this year with Sting and The Godfather.
It’s very possible WWE saves Bryan’s induction for another year as they may feel Sting is big enough for this year’s class and they could get more out of Bryan going in another year.

Monday night on RAW The Godfather was officially announced as a 2016 Inductee into the WWE Hall of Fame.
The Godfather, real name Charles Wright, made a name for himself during WWE’s beloved Attitude Era as an eccentric and charismatic ladies man who always brought with him a train of beautiful women to the ring.”The Godfather’s unique persona and lovely ladies were a key ingredient in giving WWE, and the Attitude Era specifically, a very distinct flavor and feel,” the company said in a statement.”From his colorful outfits, to memorable theme song, entourage of gorgeous ladies and hard-hitting offense, The Godfather never failed to make an impression.”
Wright is best known for his tenure with the World Wrestling Federation throughout the 1990s and early 2000s, where he performed under the ring names Sir Charles, Papa Shango, Kama, Kama Mustafa, The Godfather, and The Goodfather. He also was known as The Soultaker in the United States Wrestling Association in the Memphis Wrestling area.
Wright is a two-time USWA Unified World Heavyweight Champion, a one-time WWE Intercontinental Champion, and a one-time WWE Tag Team Champion (with Bull Buchanan).

As seen on last night’s RAW ,the first-ever Vincent J. McMahon Legacy of Excellence Award was given to Stephanie McMahon.
RAW opened with Vince McMahon coming to the ring to present the award. Vince talked about how his family has presented sports entertainment for more than 100 years and then introduced Stephanie. He talked about how proud he is of her, how she was born into the business and how she is like his father. Stephanie went to read a statement until she was interrupted by brother Shane McMahon, making his WWE return.
This led to Shane asking for control of Monday Night RAW, saying he and Vince made a deal years ago that kept Shane involved after Vince “messed up” the company and Shane came to the rescue. After tension with Stephanie McMahon, Vince agreed to give Shane control of RAW if Shane can win 1 match – against The Undertaker inside Hell In a Cell at WrestleMania 32.
Shane McMahon expresses his gratitude to the WWE Universe at the Joe Louis Arena in Detroit after his return to Raw:

John Cena seemed to hint at a match with The Undertaker at WrestleMania by posting a photo of Taker on his Instagram account.
Cena underwent shoulder surgery in early January. The normal recovery time for the surgery is around six months, which would put his return in July, however Cena has been known to return way earlier from surgeries than expected. Cena posted on Twitter this morning that he’s been “putting in twelve hours a day for the past six weeks to try and defy science.”
Cena spoke with FOX Sports at the Daytona 500 yesterday and said that he would make the show if he was physically able.
“As far as me participating in WrestleMania 32, the Magic 8-Ball says ‘ask again later,'” Cena joked. “It would be personally unfortunate for me to miss WrestleMania, but if I can’t perform, it would be unfortunate for the people watching WrestleMania to see me suffer through something that isn’t worthy of the event. I take a very unselfish approach to my job and what I do because people spend their hard-earned money to enjoy what we do, and our goal is to deliver the best show possible. If I can contribute to that, great. If I can’t then, it not helping any of fans … we’ll see how it works.”

As seen at last night’s WWE FastLane pay-per-view, there was no angle setting up the expected Brock Lesnar vs. Bray Wyatt match at WrestleMania 32. The Wyatts only appearance at the show was in their loss to Ryback, The Big Show and Kane.
Wrestling Inc.’s Sean Ross Sapp speculated on last night’s live edition of the Wrestling Inc. podcast that it appeared as if Lesnar is now facing Dean Ambrose at WrestleMania. While both Vince Russo and myself felt that Ambrose has not been booked strong enough for a match against Lesnar at the big event, Dave Meltzer noted on last night’s episode of Wrestling Observer Radio that Lesnar vs. Ambrose is now indeed the match at ‘Mania.
According to Meltzer, the original plan was for Bray Wyatt to interfere in the WWE Fastlane pay-per-view main event, however that was changed and Wyatt vs. Lesnar is no longer happening.
