#7 'Hacksaw' Jim Duggan

Although he won the first Royal Rumble, is he really worthy of the Hall of Fame?
Although he won the first Royal Rumble, is he really worthy of the Hall of Fame?

'Hacksaw' Jim Duggan had a simple gimmick but one that he played perfectly throughout his career.

Duggan never captured any gold in the WWF and captured mid-card gold in WCW twice. He was never a main-event guy or one who had matches which the fans would rave about.

But since he was a memorable, over-the-top goofy character, he's remembered fondly by fans who grew up with him.

Like many pro wrestlers, he had a cup of tea in the NFL but was released by the Atlanta Falcons due to nagging knee issues.

When Duggan was in a match in the WWF, it was usually as the least important member of a team, like with Hulk Hogan, or as someone defending the honor of the USA.

While he was a kid-friendly wrestler who may have officially won the first Royal Rumble, the exploits of his career don't seem worthy of a HOF induction.
