During WrestleMania 42 weekend, WWE will present the Hall of Fame class of 2026 with a star studded lineup of talent being inducted.
Alongside AJ Styles, Stephanie McMahon, Dennis Rodman and Demolition, there will be legacy wing inductees with Sid and Bad News Brown being honored on Friday, April 17.
With a little over two weeks away from the event, the company could still add one final star to join Sid and Brown in the legacy wing of the WWE Hall of Fame 2026.
Here are six final new potential WWE Hall of Fame 2026 legacy inductees.
6. Mike Awesome
Extreme Championship Wrestling had many stars who have been inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame over the years.
Whether it be The Dudley Boyz or Rob Van Dam, these names have all made their mark in WWE, but they have also left an even bigger legacy on the land of extreme.
Mike Awesome is among those talents as someone who put their name on the map in the latter years of ECW and then also in WCW as well.
Becoming known as one of the most powerful and agile big men of his era, Awesome feels like someone who could be celebrated for his contributions with a legacy wing induction into the WWE Hall Fame after passing away in 2007.
5. Miss Elizabeth
The art of being a manager or valet is something that is quite underrated in the world of pro wrestling.
To enhance the stars in the ring, a manager helps to separate some legends from the rest of their generation and that is exactly what Miss Elizabeth did for Macho Man Randy Orton.
Regarded as “The First Lady of Pro Wrestling,” Elizabeth was a cornerstone of the 1980s and 90s working alongside her then-husband Macho Man in WWE. Then upon moving to WCW in the mid-90s, Elizabeth went on to manage the likes of the NWO, Ric Flair and Lex Luger.
It is almost shocking to realize that 23 years after her passing Elizabeth has never been inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame and feels like an ideal inductee for the legacy wing this year.
4. Sabu
In 2025, Sabu took part in his final in-ring match against Joey Janela at the Spring Break 9 event during WrestleMania 41 weekend.
Just a few months later, Sabu tragically passed away at the age of 60 years old.
The former multi-time ECW World Heavyweight Champion is often mentioned among the most innovative and creative hardcore wrestlers in the history of the business.
With his runs in ECW, TNA Wrestling and WWE, Sabu feels more than deserving of being part of the WWE Hall of Fame 2026 legacy wing.

3. Bam Bam Bigelow
Another former ECW World Heavyweight Champion who feels worthy of the WWE Hall of Fame 2026 induction is Bam Bam Bigelow.
With over 20 years of experience inside the squared circle, Bigelow is recognized as one of the greatest big men in pro wrestling history.
Bigelow is remembered for his signature flame tattoo on his bald head, flamed attire and amazing agility.
Having been a WrestleMania headliner and former WWE Tag Team Champion, Bigelow has earned his place in the WWE Hall of Fame legacy wing.
2. Umaga
Speaking of notable big men, Umaga was someone who made their mark during the 2000s as a monster heel.
Debuting in 2006, “The Samoan Bulldozer” accomplished quite a bit in a short amount of time, winning the WWE Intercontinental Championship twice and taking part in several memorable feuds against top stars, such as John Cena, Jeff Hardy and Triple H.
Known for his face paint and unbridled rage, Umaga made his mark and had a major influence on other stars after him, including his nephews The Usos and Solo Sikoa.
Umaga finally getting inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame feels long overdue, but a necessary move to honor one of the stars that helped inspire talent after him.
1. Bray Wyatt
Speaking of talent who helped inspire a generation, Bray Wyatt is another individual who did just that throughout his illustrious career.
Showing off a great deal of creativity with his characters and stories, Wyatt should go down as one of the most brilliant minds to ever step foot in a WWE ring.
With his signature characters and creations like The Wyatt Family, The Firefly Funhouse and The Fiend, Wyatt is remembered as an influential and impactful figure of his generation in WWE.
After passing away in 2023, WWE will have another chance to celebrate Wyatt’s many contributions and achievements with an induction into the legacy wing of the WWE Hall of Fame class of 2026 ceremony during WrestleMania 42 weekend.
