Orndorff Justified, or Hogan Deserving?

I hear that the reason Paul Orndorff chose to stay in his seat at the WWE Hall of Fame induction ceremony rather than stand up to embrace Hulk Hogan was because he felt like he was being treated like a "second class citizen" at the event in comparison to Hogan and Roddy Piper. Do you feel that Orndorff was justified in feeling that way, or do you think he needed to be humble and acknowledge the level of stardom that Piper and especially Hogan had achieved?

I think he should have just been happy to have been inducted. Hogan and Piper have been on WWE tv recently. He has not so what does he expect?

Orndorff needs to suck it up. He just wasn't as big of a star. Hogan&Piper almost created pro wrestling between the two of them.

I can understand where he is coming from, the whole ceremony seemed to focus on Piper and Hogan. Understanably they were the biggest stars of the 7 but that doesn't mean they should have had it focused on them. But I think he still should have stood up and shown a little respect because i'm sure Hogan would have done the same.

Funny, I noticed this right away and I mentioned it in the HOF thread I did lastnight. I think he should have just been humble and stood up, after all, Hoganwent to them to acknowledge them.

Hmmm..I did notice that..I think everyone should just realize that if it wasn't for Piper and Hogan they wouldn't even be known.

I can kind of see both sides to this. Piper and especially Hogan helped these other guys enjoy some form of success and helped build the industry to what it is today. They deserved their time in the spotlight the other night.

On the other hand, if you invite these guys to the prom you should at least let them dance a little. The focus on the 2 somewhat overshadowed the whole, which was a class being inducted, not just two people.

Still, Mr. 1derful shouldn't have pouted like he did. Just enjoy the moment for what its worth and be glad to be recognized.

I guess WWE did it on purpose to force us to buy the HOF DVD to see the other 5 inductees being honored. I will wait and see if they bundle it with the WM 21 DVD.

Hogan should have just slapped him and knocked his ass out of his chair for being an egotistical tool. Get over yourself Orndorff. Oh and he's a lecher too!
