WWE Invited Demolition To Hall Of Fame Ceremony
Demolition invited to WWE Hall of Fame ceremony

Demolition are one of the greatest teams in WWE history, but the three-time WWE Tag Team Champions are barely mentioned in WWE due to past issues between the team and the promotion.
However, it seems that any issues between the two sides are seemingly behind them, with the team of Ax and Smash having been invited to the WWE Hall of Fame ceremony ‘last year’, with Demolition saying the following to Hitting the Turnbuckle:
“Well, we never had an objection to going in (the WWE Hall of Fame). There was a lot of politics involved and now it’s changed like you say and hopefully, the change for the better with our relationship. But we’ve never been in contact with anybody from the office and like you said before, the only person that made the decision for anything before was Vince (McMahon), and we weren’t on Vince’s like list I guess. But, we’ve never objected to being inducted, we’ve never objected to being included in anything with WWE. So, quite possibly could happen. But one thing we haven’t done, we haven’t lost any sleep over it,” said Ax (Bill Eadie).
Smash - aka Barry Darsow - continued:
“Now last year at WrestleMania time, right before WrestleMania, they called us and they invited us to WrestleMania and they invited us to the Hall of Fame and that was a big change with Triple H in there. I’m sure that’s all his idea. We had to unfortunately turn them down because the person who brought us in, he paid for us to come in and we were busy doing stuff with him so it wasn’t like we could just leave and jump ship and go over there and I’m hoping they understood it and they should have. But, that was the first kind of, ‘Hey, you guys wanna come and be with us?’ So that was a good sign.”
Since the pair exited the WWE in the early 90s, Darsow has been back in the company for several one-off appearances under his ‘Repo Man’ gimmick, however Eadie has not been on WWE TV since exiting the company in 1990, and was part of a class action lawsuit against the company filed by Konstantine Kyros in 2016.
