Several mainstream media outlets, including TMZ, have picked up on the news of WWE likely announcing “Macho Man” Randy Savage for the 2015 WWE Hall of Fame on tonight’s RAW.
It was originally reported last week that WWE would be announcing the first 2015 Hall of Famer during the first week of February but plans were changed to help with ticket sales. PWInsider reports that on Friday, the script for tonight’s RAW listed a segment for the first 2015 Hall of Fame announcement but apparently didn’t list a name.
WWE’s social media accounts have already made several Savage-related posts and he’s been trending worldwide since WWE’s first tease this afternoon.
