It was recently reported that former WWE Superstars and Tag Team Champions, Demolition (Bill Eadie/Ax and Barry Darsow/Smash), have signed latest WWE Legends deals. This might signal a possible Hall of Fame induction of their near future.
In response to a report from Fightful Select, the three-time WWF Tag Team Champions have been discussed as potential inductees. Their latest Legends contract not only allows them to have officially-licensed WWE merchandise and make appearances in WWE video games but additionally provides a path for them to be inducted into the Hall of Fame.
The present WWE regime has reportedly considered Demolition for an induction, even though it’s still unclear whether or not they’ll be a part of the Class of 2025. To this point, Triple H and Michelle McCool are the one announced inductees for this yr’s Hall of Fame class.
With this latest Legends deal, WWE can now produce and license merchandise for Ax, Smash, and Demolition. While Demolition had previously been represented through WWE-licensed motion figures and even appeared within the WWE ’12 video game, this deal marks the top of several years of tension between the team and WWE. Those issues stemmed from their exit from the corporate, legal disputes over the Demolition name and copyright, in addition to concerns over concussions.
There’s no word yet on whether Crush (the late Brian Adams), who joined Demolition for a transient period, might be considered for a Hall of Fame induction alongside them. Crush had a notable WWE profession as a singles star, a member of the Nation of Domination, and in addition had a major run in WCW as a part of the nWo and later as half of the Kronik tag team with Bryan Clark, winning the WCW Tag Team Titles.
WWE has yet to substantiate Demolition’s place within the Class of 2025 Hall of Fame.
