Who do you think goes in this year? I think:
Goldberg or The Rock Diamond Dallas Page (He has a DVD out soon) British Bulldog/British Bulldogs (Because of the UK Tournament) Chyna (If they are willing) / Mickey James if not a Diva from around 2002 Billy Kidman/Jamie Noble or some Cruiserweight from 2002
Celebrity Wing and Warrior Award - Who knows
Other than Undertaker, Cena, Jericho and Kurt Angle, there aren't many headliners left

I'd add Bryan Daniel to the list of headliners in the future. HHH as well someday.
Hell, I half expect Stephanie McMahon to be a headliner some day.

Remember they're in Florida so there will have to be some sort of local connection.
I could totally see Dean Malenko getting in. He's from the area and was a top cruiserweight star when the division actually meant something.
Maybe the Dudleys for a tag, and why not Sable so Brock has to attend the ceremony.

I'd like Bulldog going in, either by himself or the team as they could get Dynamite to actually accept if he's willing. You could maybe do Kevin Sullivan as he had a big run in Florida.

Kevin Sullivan. Funny thing is they'll probably induct him as The Taskmaster just to fuck with him.

Malenko would be great, Jericho can induct him.

Goldberg to headline. DDP is rumored heavily, I'm happy for that. Vader maybe. New age outlaws perhaps or X-Pac for Kliq nepotism I'd go with Mayweather for celeb. And Lillian Garcia's father for his lost battle against cancer.

And Lillian Garcia's father for his lost battle against cancer. All fair choices and all probable Hall of Famers within the next few years. I think Goldberg (for this year) will depend on his status in relation to the title picture at Mania. If he's fighting for the strap, you don't want to imply so heavily that it's the end of the road for him. I also think you could induct DX as a whole... though I do love the idea of Flair staying as the only two-time Hall of Famer. But if the Outlaws or Waltman get in, do you think they'll be totally shocked when the rest of the Kliq comes out to surprise them after their speech? I've also seen some Davey Boy Smith rumors, he's deserving and it would make sense given all of the UK stuff going on. Selfishly, it's just another reminder to me that Owen Hart - my favorite of all-time - isn't in. I also agree with others about the Dudleys, Malenko and Sullivan - all deserving, though none of them are particularly interesting selections to me. How about Bischoff?

Muhammad Ali... just thought of this now because I had assumed he was already in. Either celebrity induction or Warrior Award.

good call on Ali.
Rick Rude and Christian are apparently rumored for this year.

Also heard that William Regal is scheduled to go in that year. Natural Disasters could be the tag team inductees this year as well.

Rude is overdue in my opinion. Christian's an interesting choice, I'd say he's definitely deserving but is not a first pick to me. If they don't put in Bryan then I'd go with Christian in terms of a recent wrestler going in.

Rumors about a lot of guys who have passed away between Rude, Davey Boy, Earthquake... I know WWE doesn't like to do too many of those in one year unless they can sneak one in as part of a group (Road Warrior Hawk, Terry Gordy).
To fill out the numbers, I would guess guys like Mike Rotunda, Fit Finlay, Terry Taylor and JBL have probably spent a few years on the "if we need an extra guy" list.
