1993 SEMI-FINAL RESULTS: Thank you for your participation in the Pro Football Hall of Fame Revisited Project.

Last January, the Baseball Hall of Fame announced the Class of 2026, and for us at Notinhalloffame.com, this means it is time to revise the list of those to consider for the Hall. At present, it is a work in progress, as we have multiple projects underway (including prepping the ballot for the 2026 United States Athletic Hall of Fame), but we are also slowly working on the Baseball Hall revision. Our revisions take into account the following: Removing those who were inducted and including those who are now eligible. Taking in your votes and comments and adjusting accordingly. Simple,…

It was announced today that Sid Eudy will be inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame. Competing throughout the late 1980s to the early 2000s, Sid Eudy wrestled mainly in WWE and WCW, where he won numerous titles and headlined many pay-per-view events.
