Triple H and WWE recently unveiled two more additions to the Hall of Fame Class of 2024.
The family members of Bray Wyatt, Mike Rotunda, and Barry Windham, are slated to join Paul Heyman and Bull Nakano in this esteemed roster. Following the announcement, Triple H took to social media to convey a message.
Mike and Barry, known as The U.S Express, left an indelible mark on the pro wrestling scene in the 1980s.
From the very first #WrestleMania… to the WWE Hall of Fame.
Mike Rotunda & Barry Windham are a legendary tag team with deep family ties to our business, and their influence will be felt for generations to come.

Their journey with the Stamford-based promotion commenced in 1984, where they clinched the WWF World Tag Team Championships multiple times during their brief tenure.
Their presence was also felt on RAW in 2008 when they were set for a rematch from WrestleMania I against Volkoff and The Iron Sheik.
However, the match was disrupted by Jillian Hall, who entertained the legends with a rendition of “Born in the USA” before encountering an Airplane Spin by Rotunda.
The news of Barry and Mike’s induction into the Hall of Fame in Philadelphia this year has stirred excitement. Triple H shared a touching moment of breaking the news to the duo on social media, accompanied by a heartfelt message:
“From the very first #WrestleMania… to the WWE Hall of Fame. Mike Rotunda & Barry Windham are a legendary tag team with deep family ties to our business, and their influence will be felt for generations to come. It was an honor to tell the US Express that they’re #WWEHOF bound,” – Triple H

Could Triple H also induct Bray Wyatt into the WWE Hall of Fame 2024?
Fans have been clamoring for Bray Wyatt’s induction into the WWE Hall of Fame following his untimely demise last year. Wrestling veteran Tom Prichard weighed in on the possibility:
“It might happen. That might be a good thing.”
With Triple H already announcing Paul Heyman and Bull Nakano as the initial inductees into the Hall of Fame this year, hopes are high among fans that the late star, Bray Wyatt, might also receive recognition for his profound impact on pro wrestling.
