Hall of Fame class of 2013 gets honored tonight in Madison Square Garden

Live tonight from Madison Square Garden, WWE will present probably the most star-studded Hall of Fame of all time.

Headlining the show will be the man who many believe would never accept the invitation – the living legend and longest reigning WWE champion ever Bruno Sammartino. He will be inducted by former California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger.

Mick Foley will join the all time greats this year, being the first person announced for this year’s Hall of Fame ceremony. He promised an epic speech and fans fought to have his speech appear on the HOF broadcast on USA Network next Tuesday. He will be inducted by his longtime friend and former tag team partner Terry Funk.

One of the greatest – if just not the greatest – WWE Divas of all time will also be honored at tonight’s show. The former seven time Women’s champion Trish Stratus will join the Hall of Fame after she gets inducted by WWE executive Stephanie McMahon.

Former five time, five time, five time, five time, five time, WCW champion Booker T will add Hall of Famer to his resumé tonight with his brother and former Harlem Heat tag team partner Stevie Ray inducting him.

One of the longest reigning WWE champions Bob Backlund also joins the class of 2013 and many believe he should have been there already by now. TV host, actress, and longtime friend of Backlund Maria Menounos will be inducting Backlund.

And last and certainly not least, the newest member in the celebrity wing of the WWE Hall of Fame will be Donald Trump. Trump, who hosted WrestleMania IV and V and his Trump Plaza in Atlantic City, will be inducted by his friend and WWE Chairman and CEO Vince McMahon.
