KoKo is another one that found his way into the Hall of Fame based purely on the fact that he was once a fan favourite, and even that was short-lived.

For a span of maybe five years, Koko B. Ware was one of the most loved Superstars by WWE fans. A lot of his popularity could be attributed to the fact that he made his entrance with a huge, colourful bird on his shoulder. The beautiful macaw named Frankie was as much a part of Wares gimmick as he was himself.

Koko eventually formed a tag team with Owen Hart called High Energy, but it was short-lived and left much to be desired. The bottom line is Koko’s WWE career was nothing to write home about. While he was certainly loved and adored by fans, he simply never accomplished anything worth mentioning while with the company. The vast majority of Koko’s accolades came before his time with WWE, when he was working in the Memphis area.

Jonathan, a big fan of Bray Wyatt, would like to see the latter's brother, Bo Dallas, continue his legacy as Uncle Howdy. If he were to work on the storyline, Jonathan would book the return of Erick Rowan as Howdy’s muscle. He thinks it would be a great way to honor the former Universal Champion.
