The World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) Hall of Fame is a hall of fame for professional wrestlers maintained by WWE. The WWE Hall of Fame was created in 1993 for the inaugural induction of André the Giant, who died in January of that year. For his induction, no ceremony was held, instead a video recollection was shown on WWF Superstars to indicate his posthumous induction. After 1993, ceremonies were held for the inductions of a class, or group, of wrestlers the night before and in the same city as that year's WrestleMania; they also featured high profile wrestling personalities inducting them, as their participation in the ceremony is highly publicized. Wrestlers were inducted into the Hall of Fame until 1996, when the process was not used again until 2004. After eight years of dormancy, WWE reinstated the process. As of 2008, there have been a total of 68 inductees, with 60 members inducted individually and four tag teams inducted.[1] Thirteen of the inductees have been inducted posthumously.[2] Induction is dependent upon whether the candidate is on good terms with WWE, and former WWE wrestlers who often criticize WWE or currently work with a different promotion have not been inducted.[3] Others, such as Bruno Sammartino are alienated from the promotion and refuse to be inducted, despite having been asked several times.[4] Inductees
