#3. Former WWE Superstar Buff Bagwell

Buff Bagwell was part of the New World Order during his time in WCW, but when WWE looked to bring the group back after purchasing the company, Bagwell wasn't part of the team.

Bagwell's stint with WWE began and ended in 2001, so it makes sense that the former star isn't open to being added to the Hall of Fame.

As part of a recent appearance on the Who The Fook Are These Guys podcast, Bagwell revealed that he was offered the chance to go into the Hall of Fame with the NWO but turned it down.

They actually called me to do the, you know, to do the Hall of Fame thing. I was like, I’ll be honest, I said “I don’t want to be part of a group in the Hall of Fame, I don’t want to be like Brett Farve getting a ring because of the Green Bay Packers," he said. [H/T Ringsidenews]

The NWO was added to the WWE Hall of Fame in 2020, with Hulk Hogan, X-Pac, Kevin Nash, and Scott Hall all receiving the honor.
