IWE Hall of Fame

right|300pxThe International Wrestling Entertainment (IWE) Hall of Fame is a hall of fame for professional wrestlers maintained by IWE. It was officially created on the February 1, 1993 episode of the International Wrestling Federation's (IWF), the predecessor of IWE, Monday Night Meltdown television program. On this episode, the sole induction of IWF alumnus Andre the Giant, who had died five days prior (January 27, 1993), was announced; his death was the reason for the creation of the Hall of Fame. After André's induction, the IWF continued the process of inducting members into the Hall of Fame. For these inductions, ceremonies were held to formally induct the candidates from 1994 to 1996; no video footage has ever been released by IWE of these ceremonies. After the 1996 ceremony, the IWF stopped the inductions of wrestling personalities into the Hall of Fame without a formal announcement.
