Rhino and Bob Ryder have been announced as the next inductees into the TNA Hall of Fame.
The TNA Hall of Fame was created back in 2012, ten years after the company was founded. Sting was the company’s first inductee, owing to his help in establishing TNA as a top promotion alongside the WWE. He was followed by the likes of Kurt Angle, Jeff Jarrett and Gail Kim, among other stars of TNA’s past. Other inductees included Earl Hebner and Team 3D.
Fans were excited to see who would be next, after it was reported that TNA wanted to continue their Hall of Fame this year. The good news is that two new names will be inducted this year. This will be at the TNA Bound for Glory 2024 pre-show in Detroit, Michigan.
TNA announced on their website that Rhino and Bob Ryder would be in the class of 2024.
Rhino was a legend in ECW, and had a lengthy run with the WWE prior to joining TNA in 2005. He is a former NWA World’s Heavyweight Champion with the promotion. Additionally, he is a two-time tag team champion, and has been a consistent part of the company since his return to the company in 2019.
Meanwhile, Bob Ryder was a titan behind the scenes for TNA since its inception. He worked for both WCW and ECW prior to helping found TNA with Jeff Jarrett in 2002. He worked in various capacities in the company up until his death in 2020, and will be honored with a Hall of Fame induction at TNA Bound for Glory 2024.
Bob Ryder will be inducted posthumously by former TNA World Champion Eric Young.
TNA Bound for Glory 2024 will take place on Saturday, October 26, at the Wayne State University Fieldhouse in Detroit.
