Torrie Wilson announced as third inductee into Class of 2019 WWE Hall of Fame

WWE has confirmed a third inductee for this year’s Hall of Fame.

Torrie Wilson was officially confirmed as the latest inductee for the upcoming Class of 2019 ceremony taking place during WrestleMania 35 weekend this April.

Wilson, a former WCW star, signed with WWE in 2001 after WCW went out of business.

Excerpt from WWE’s write up about Wilson’s career is below:

Wilson joined WWE when the company purchased WCW in spring 2001. Her athleticism and penchant for entertainment made her a great fit for WWE during one of the sports-entertainment industry’s biggest eras. Wilson’s partnership with her friend (and sometimes rival) Stacy Keibler made her a key figure in WCW’s invasion of WWE. Once that invasion was fought off, Wilson became a pivotal member of the WWE Women’s division, engaging in memorable rivalries with the likes of Keibler, Sable and Melina. She even fought for her family’s honor against the nefarious Dawn Marie.

Wilson later joined forces with Candice Michelle and Victoria to sow chaos on Monday Night Raw, even bringing her pet dog Chloe into the fray while battling Superstars, such as Trish Stratus and Mickie James. Injuries forced Wilson out of the ring in 2008, but she soon found a new passion: helping others get in shape through ventures like her business, Torrie Wilson Fit.

This year’s Hall of Fame ceremony will be held on Saturday (April 6) at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York, with NXT TakeOver: New York taking place the day before.

D-Generation X (Triple H, Shawn Michaels, Billy Gunn, “Road Dogg” Jesse James, X-Pac and Chyna) and The Honky Tonk Man were announced as inductees in the previous weeks.

Opinionated View- The WWE Hall of Fame officially means nothing now. No matter how you want to spin it Torrie's role was to show up wearing an outfit and and walk around the ring. She didn't have great matches, she never manged anyone all that well. Her reason for having a job was VInce wanted a girl for Photo Shoots and Bikini Contests
