What's the story?
Many wrestling legends have supported the Team Davey Boy Smith campaign to induct The British Bulldog into the WWE Hall of Fame. Such legends as Mark Henry, Bret "The Hitman" Hart, Booker T and many more. Daily Star in the U.K also has a campaign for The British Bulldog and was recently backed by former WWE Champion, Christian. Others stars such as Pete Dunne and Drew McIntyre have shown support for Daily Star's petition for The Bulldog to go into The WWE HOF as well.

New Champs in WWE! More RIGHT HERE
The British Bulldog passed away in 2002. His list of accomplishments speaks for itself. His achievements in WWE include the following, 1-time Intercontinental Champion, 2-time European Champion, 2-time Hardcore Champion, as well as 2-time Tag Team Champion.
The heart of the matter
Christian recently spoke with The Daily Star Online on Davey Boy Smith. When he asked if Bulldog should be inducted into the Hall of Fame, Christian said: “Yeah, for sure.” He went on: “Obviously he had a great career, and I was a huge British Bulldogs fan as a tag team, and I was a huge fan when he was a singles wrestler. I think he really was the face in WWE of being a British wrestler. As far as that goes, I think he should be [in the Hall of Fame].”
What's next?
Only time will tell if WWE will put The British Bulldog into the Hall of Fame. If WWE chooses to put him in, they can put him in quite a few ways. He can go in individually, as a tag team with Dynamite Kid, or Owen Hart as well as with the faction, The Hart Foundation. Unforuntanley, without Martha's permission for Owen to be inducted, we may also have to wait for The British Bulldog as well. You can support The Daily Star's Petition here
