WWE Hall of Fame 2019: All Confirmed Inductees

#4. The Honky Tonk Man

Cool, Cockey, Bad

While Hulkamania was running wild, there was always The Honky Tonk Man. In terms of musical acts, WWE Superstars like Elias, Jeff Jarret and others can thank Honky Tonk Man for laying the groundwork for their success.

It's interesting to note the Honky Tonk Man only won the WWE Intercontinental Championship once, it still was a memorable one. Moreover, he still has the record for the longest reign with the IC title for 454 days. He lost in even memorable fashion to The Ultimate Warrior in 31 seconds.

While Honky Tonk Man never enjoyed the same success he had in WWE in the 1980s, he returned to the WWE In 1997 in a managerial role as well as a commentator. Weirdly enough, he was also a catalyst for joining Bad Ass Billy Gunn and Road Dogg Jesse James as the New Age Outlaws.
