The WWE Hall of Fame ceremony is an event fans look forward to every year. It's undoubtedly a moment to celebrate icons and their contributions to the business of professional wrestling both inside and outside the squared circle.

The 2020 and 2021 WWE Hall of Fame inductions were not live events attended by fans due to the Covid-19 pandemic related restrictions. They were taped together at the WWE Thunderdome and telecasted before WrestleMania 37. It remains to be seen what WWE has in store for the 2022 ceremony.

With that being said, Vince McMahon's promotion will definitely look to put together a big card for a possible list of inductees for the upcoming event. Here's a look at six early predictions for the WWE Hall of Fame Class of 2022:

#6 WWE Legend - Miss Elizabeth

Miss Elizabeth was one of the most famous female personalities in the WWE between 1985 to 1992. She is best known for being the on-screen manager and real-life spouse of Randy Savage.

She also managed the team of Hulk Hogan and the Macho Man known as The Mega Powers in the late 80s. At the time, there were various storylines built for the Mega Powers with Miss Elizabeth being at the center of them all. There were some memorable feuds with greats like Jake "The Snake" Roberts and Ric Flair.

Her contributions in WCW are also noteworthy in the late 90s as part of the nWO again managing Hogan and Savage. Having been so pivotal in WWE during her time, Miss Elizabeth would be a great option for the 2022 Hall of Fame Class.


#5 WWE celebrity inductee - Bad Bunny

Bad Bunny played an instrumental role at WrestleMania 37. The Puerto Rican rapper, singer-songwriter and actor made guest appearances in WWE prior to the mega event. During that time he began a feud with The Miz and John Morrison which saw them battle at The Grandest Stage of Them All in a tag team bout.

Bad Bunny was joined by Damian Priest as their team defeated Miz and Morrison. Apart from this victory, he also won the 24/7 Championship when he pinned Akira Tozawa. Having carved a success story in his short stint in WWE, Bad Bunny could definitely be considered to be inducted in the celebrity wing.

#4 WWE Legend - Owen Hart

Owen Hart was one of the most technically astute wrestlers to ever step foot in a WWE ring. Coming from the reputed Hart Family, it was no surprise The King of Harts soared to great heights in this business, both in singles as well as tag team competition.

Owen was a former two-time Intercontinental Champion, a one-time European Champion, and a four-time WWF World Tag Team Champion, as well as the 1994 WWF King of the Ring.

With such laurels to speak of, he could be a worthy candidate to be inducted into the 2022 Hall of Fame Class.


#3 WWE Legend - William Regal

William Regal has undoubtedly been a force to be reckoned with both inside and outside the ring. The British superstar joined WWE in 2000 and became a two-time Intercontinental Champion, five-time Hardcore Champion, four-time European Champion, and four-time World Tag Team Champion. Apart from these accolades, he also won the prestigious King of the Ring Tournament in 2008.

He currently works as the General Manager of NXT 2.0 and 205 Live. Behind the scenes, he's also WWE's Director of Talent Development and Head of Global Recruiting. Certainly a worthy contender for the 2022 Hall of Fame induction.

#2 WWE Legend - Lex Luger

Lex Luger was a brute force in the WWE ring, famous for successfully body slamming the late Yokozuna in a challenge he won in 1993. Although he did not win any major championships in WWE, he was a joint winner of the 1994 Royal Rumble with WWE Hall of Famer Bret Hart.

Outside of WWE, Lex Luger tasted immense success in WCW, becoming a two-time WCW World Heavyweight Champion as well as a two-time WCW World Television Champion.

In addition to this, Luger was one of the few guys who stood up to the famous nWO faction in the late 90s when they were on a dominant run. His achievements are definitely praise-worthy, making him a potential inductee into the 2022 Hall of Fame Class.


#1 WWE Legend - The Undertaker

The headline induction is a big ticket item in the Hall of Fame ceremony and there is no candidate more deserving than The Undertaker. For the last three decades, The Phenom has been entertaining fans with an unparalleled passion.

A 25-2 WrestleMania record along with seven reigns as world champion as well as being a seven-time Tag Team Champion are feats worthy of every praise. Apart from this, The Deadman's loyalty towards WWE and Vince McMahon speaks volumes of his sheer commitment, dedication, and hard work.

The Undertaker's retirement ceremony at Survivor Series 2020 happened with no fans present in the arena. Hence it's only befitting that his Hall of Fame induction should happen in front of a live crowd in his home state of Texas, which is also the venue for WrestleMania 38.
