Ric Flair reveals that Rodzilla wanted the Nature Boy to be the one to induct the multi-time NBA Champion into the WWE Hall of Fame.

This past weekend, the WWE Hall of Fame inducted a large variety of names who made an impact on the business throughout the years. Whether it was a couple of appearances or their whole career, the names involved included AJ Styles, Stephanie McMahon, Demolition, Sycho Sid, Bad News Brown, and Dennis Rodman.

Rodman, who was part of the main event for Bash At the Beach 1998 where he teamed up with Hulk Hogan to battle Diamond Dallas Page and Karl Malone, was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame by his fellow NWO brothers, Kevin Nash and X-Pac (Syxx), however, he originally wanted Ric Flair, but Nature Boy Flair never got a call back, he says.

Flair was a guest on The Ariel Helwani show, and talked about Rodman’s Hall of Fame induction.

“Dennis Rodman called me and said, ‘Will you induct me into the Hall of Fame?’ I sent it to the power that be, ‘Dennis wants (me to induct him).’ I never got a call back. I’m very happy for Kevin and Sean. I never got a call back.”

Rodman has not commented. He would impersonate Hogan during his speech and pay tribute to the New World Order as an honorary member for life.
