Why the long wait for the Gorilla? I thought he was already in it?

Gorilla was inducted into WWF's HOF in 1994.

The HOF mentioned above is a different entity.

That's what I thought. I too thought Gorilla was already inducted. If not, will Heenan induct him?

Heenan would be a great candidate this time around, but I honestly don't know what kind of current physical state "The Brain" is in.

He should have been in this HOF years ago too.

If Ross inducted Gino in 1994, why the hell are they inducting him again?? That's the question I have.

I see. I thought it was WWE HOF they inducted him in in 1994. In that case, I hope he gets a good induction but like Mont said, I wonder who will do it because we don't know the health status of Bobby Heenan.
