As we look ahead to the WWE Hall of Fame Class of 2025, fans are already buzzing about which wrestling legends will be honored next. Each year,
WWE inducts some great wrestlers to celebrate their significant contributions to the company. The Hall of Fame ceremony not only brings back cherished stars but also highlights their remarkable legacies and achievements throughout their careers.
In 2024, the Hall of Fame welcomed Paul Heyman, Bull Nakano, Thunderbolt Patterson, Lia Maivia, and The U.S.
Express, with Muhammad Ali joining the Celebrity Wing. As we look forward to the 2025 inductees, it's exciting to consider which new legends will join this esteemed group.

1. Bray Wyatt
Best of Bray Wyatt: WWE Playlist
Bray Wyatt passed away in August 2023, leaving many fans hoping his legacy would be honored in the WWE Hall of Fame the following year, but that did not happen. Instead, the 2024 class featured Bray’s father, Mike Rotunda (known as IRS), and his uncle, Barry Windham, both of whom paid tribute to him during their induction speeches.
Now, with the Wyatt Six consistently honoring Bray in their appearances on WWE TV, it seems we may be getting closer to
Bray Wyatt receiving his rightful place in the Hall of Fame. Let’s hope to see Bray inducted in 2025.
2. Dave Bautista
Batista Bombs - WWE Top 10
Former WWE superstar
Dave Bautista was originally set for induction in 2020, but it was postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Fans have been eagerly waiting for Bautista’s entry into the WWE Hall of Fame ever since. He definitely deserves this honor, as his star power could easily make him the main attraction of any class.
However, whether he gets inducted in 2025 depends on Bautista's busy Hollywood schedule, which is why he didn’t go in 2023 when many fans expected him to. Bautista has recently mentioned his desire to be inducted and hopes it will happen someday. Let’s hope 2025 will be the year we finally see our beloved Bautista in the WWE Hall of Fame!
3. The Hardy Boyz

The Hardy Brothers left AEW earlier this year, and it seems likely that Matt and Jeff Hardy will return to WWE soon. Recently, they attended a WWE event and revealed that they had filmed some video content for the company. Let’s hope this leads to their induction into the Hall of Fame in 2025!
Their recent meeting with WWE suggests they are making a comeback, though it’s still unclear whether they will return as in-ring competitors or in another role. The Hardys are arguably the most popular tag team in WWE history, known for their fearless wrestling styles and incredible stunts. One thing is certain they deserve a spot in the WWE Hall of Fame.
4. Sycho Sid
On August 26, 2024, Sid Eudy, better known as Sycho Sid, passed away at the age of 63. He was one of the most impressive characters of the 90s in both WWE and WCW, known for his unforgettable presence and action-packed performances.
Sid won many titles in WWE and WCW and achieved huge heights in his career. Many fans wished to see Sid inducted into the Hall of Fame while he was still alive, and his absence from it has been puzzling over the years. Someone who made such a strong impact in the wrestling world deserves to be honored, so let’s hope he receives that recognition in 2025.
5. Umaga

Umaga made a significant impact in WWE with a memorable character that fans still cherish, even 15 years after his tragic passing in 2009. He impressed audiences with his surprising speed and his powerful presence.
Umaga was an iconic figure from a well-known wrestling Anoa’i family. His contributions to the wrestling world are noteworthy, and his brother, WWE Hall of Famer Rikishi, has been advocating for his induction into the Hall of Fame.
Recently, it was rumored that Umaga’s son, Zilla Fatu, is set to make his debut in WWE. This could be a sign that WWE is considering honoring the legend Umaga in the Hall of Fame in 2025. Let’s hope for the best for our beloved Umaga!
