5 Attitude Era Mid-Carders who will be in the WWE Hall Of Fame one day

In a perfect world, WWE"s Hall of Fame would be reserved for the men and women who made a significant impact during their time in the business, be it behind the scenes or in front of the camera.

Unfortunately, we aren't in a perfect world, and as a result, there are more than a few names in WWE's Hall of Fame who don't exactly deserve to be there. For example, how is Koko B. Ware in the same Hall of Fame as "Stone Cold" Steve Austin? Doesn't really make much sense, does it?

Sportskeeda is the one-stop destination for latest WWE rumors and wrestling news.

As we've seen over the years, WWE doesn't really have a criterion for their Hall of Fame, so literally, anyone can get in at any time. In fact, don't be surprised if the annual ceremony features an abundance of mid-carders who probably aren't Hall of Fame worthy. However, due to the fact that WWE inducts so many people every single year, it's probably safe to assume that some of the inductees weren't exactly main-event level superstars.

So, with all this in mind, I wanted to revisit WWE's most popular era -- the Attitude Era -- and predict which mid-carders from that time will one day end up in the WWE Hall of Fame. Of course, there are already a few mid-carders from that era who are already in such as The Godfather, and in the coming years I'm expecting to see superstars who were on his level, or even somewhat below his level, receive a Hall of Fame induction simply because they were part of the company's most popular period.

Let's get started!

#5 Val Venis

Prior to The Godfather being inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame back in 2016, I figured that there was no way a guy like Val Venis would be able to get in, simply because WWE is PG, and both The Godfather and Val Venis aren't exactly PG friendly.

But, now that one is in, the other can be as well!

The Val Venis character is one that everybody who watched wrestling during that time remembers. While he probably doesn't deserve to be in the WWE Hall of Fame based on his professional accomplishments, his induction, if it happens, will probably get a huge response from the live crowd.

Val Venis' accomplishments in WWE:

• European Champion (1 time)
• Intercontinental Champion (2 times)
• World Tag Team Champion w/ Lance Storm (1 time)

#4 Ken Shamrock

Ken Shamrock hasn't done anything WWE-related since he left the company back in 1999, and according to Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, "The World's Most Dangerous Man" has made an effort to get back in touch with WWE, however, the company isn't interested in bringing him back.

But, as we've seen with almost everyone who left WWE on bad terms, it's only a matter of time before Shamrock and WWE get back together for a Hall of Fame induction.

Shamrock was one of the most popular guys on the roster during WWE's most successful era, so that should count for something, right?

Ken Shamrock's WWE accomplishments:

• Intercontinental Champion (1 time)
• Tag Team Champion w/ Big Boss Man (1 time)
• King of the Ring tournament winner (1998)

#3 Hardcore Holly

It's worth noting that I fully expect all three of the Hollys to eventually get inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame, but if I had to pick just one, I'd pick Hardcore Holly.

Of the three, he was the most popular, and he had a long run in the company than Molly or Crash. Furthermore, he was one of the pioneers of hardcore wrestling in WWE, and a lot of people have very fond memories of the now defunct division and would love to see Hardcore Holly be inducted into the Hall of Fame.

Hardcore Holly's WWE accomplishments:

• Hardcore Champion (6 times)
• World Tag Team Champion w/ The 1-2-3 Kid, Crash Holly, and Cody Rhodes (3 times)
• NWA World Tag Team Champion w/ Bodacious Bart (1 time)

#2 Al Snow

Speaking of the hardcore division, here's another superstar that fans of the Attitude Era probably have fond memories of.

Al Snow was arguably the most popular wrestler in WWE's hardcore division, and if the company decides to bring him back for a Hall of Fame induction, they could at the very least sell a lot of fake heads.

Also, Snow did help train guys in WWE's former developmental territory called OVW, so they can induct him for his behind the scenes contributions as well.

Al Snow's WWE accomplishments:

• Hardcore Champion (6 times)
• European Champion (1 time)
• Tag Team Champion w/ Mankind (1 time)

#1 Goldust

Goldust has had an up and down relationship with WWE throughout his career, but as of right now, the two sides appear to be on good terms, as he's been a regular member of the roster for several years now.

So, unless the relationship completely falls apart at some point, you should expect to see Goldust be honoured at WWE's annual ceremony at some point in the near future.

As for who should induct him, well, if you're asking me, I'd have Cody Rhodes do it. But, as of right now Cody is not with WWE, so they'd have to find someone else for the job unless Cody returns to the company prior to his brother's inevitable induction.

Goldust's WWE accomplishments:

• Hardcore Champion (9 times)
• Intercontinental Champion (3 times)
• Tag Team Champion w/ Cody Rhodes/Stardust (2 times)
• World Tag Team Champion w/ Booker T (1 time)
