Eddie Gilbert didn't last long in the WWE, but went on to be a huge star in other promotions.

He was the victor in one of the most famous 'teacher vs. student' feuds of all time when he bested Jerry the King Lawler to win the AWA championship. He founded Hot Stuff international, where he would mentor such future stars as Sting.

Gilbert was also known for having one of the best minds for the wrestling business and was always willing to help other performers fine-tune their ring psychology. Eddie was well-loved and well-respected by his peers, though he did behave erratically at times due to substance abuse issues.

Eddie Gilbert is a true legend in wrestling and deserves to be in the Hall of Fame.
