The Wrestling Observer reported (subscription required) that the Donald was likely going to be the chosen one, with an announcement coming on the February 18 edition of Raw. That didn't happen.
Trump comes with complications.
Per the Observer:
Dealing with Trump can be complicated, particularly since there is a DVD release involved. When Trump did WrestleMania and was really the outsider who drew the record number of buys by putting up his hair, there was a complication and even though he was on the DVD, they couldn’t put a picture of him on the box or promote him as being on the DVD.But Lauper's name has also came up as a possibility, and she makes a lot of sense given her history with the company is tied to MSG. She was a key part of the WWF's early success during the Rock 'n' Wrestling Connection, making Hulk Hogan and "Rowdy" Roddy Piper come off as bigger stars in the mainstream through MTV appearances and launching the first WrestleMania.
Only one of them would join the hall's celebrity wing, which includes Pete Rose, Mike Tyson and Bob Uecker.
