Wrestling Legend Bull Nakano To Be Inducted Into WWE Hall of Fame
Bull Nakano, a pioneer in women's wrestling, will be enshrined in the WWE Hall of Fame this year. The news was announced by ESPN on Wednesday morning.



Nakano, considered one of the greatest female wrestlers of all time, began her career in Japan in the 1980s, rising to become a top draw for All Japan Women's Pro-Wrestling. In the 1990s, she expanded her reach to Mexico, capturing the CMLL World Women's Championship in 1992.





Fans may remember her memorable feud with Alundra Blayze (also known as Madusa) in WWE. During this period, Nakano won the Women's Title at the Tokyo Dome in 1994, a rare title defense outside the United States. However, she would lose the title back to Blayze the following year.





Nakano also had a brief stint in WCW during the 1990s, notably participating in the WCW and New Japan Pro-Wrestling co-promoted shows in North Korea, which drew record-breaking crowds. She retired from wrestling in 1997.



Nakano becomes the second inductee revealed for this year's Hall of Fame ceremony, which takes place in Philadelphia on April 5th, following SmackDown on WrestleMania weekend. The iconic home of ECW, the Wells Fargo Center, will host the event.



Triple H, the current head of WWE's creative team, selected Paul Heyman as the first inductee and likely headliner for this year's class.
