The top babyface of the top promotion during a boom period.
In potentially his final year on the ballot, I took a comprehensive look at why Dominic DeNucci needs to be in the Observer Hall of Fame:

@bryanalvarez You've been in the game too long to be making mistakes like that dude.

[Ethan Tyler @ETyler01]

A strong HOF class this year.
The only disappointment for me was the elimination of Billy Joyce. I blame myself for not writing in support of his case, but need to study the results further to understand why he dropped off, and avoid such mistakes in future.

My 2026 Observer HOF ballot:

[Ethan Tyler @ETyler01]

One of the greatest British wrestlers you've never heard of. This is potentially Billy Joyce's last year to make it into the HOF, listen to find out why he absolutely belongs.

[Ryan Neitzey (formerly Count Out! Network) @RyanNeitzey6]

NEW episode of The Ballot is out & it is all about Billy Joyce!

Ryan is joined by @ETyler01 to discuss the WON Hall of Fame case of Billy Joyce, the importance of hybrid wrestlers, and why you have to vote him in on his 15th year.

@ostpies @allan_cheapshot @NeilSands123 @RingoRyanL19 @RobbyBrookside A man with good taste.

[Ethan Tyler @ETyler01]

A reminder since some voters have confused the two: the Observer HOF deadline is November 8th. October 28th is for postal votes only. @WONHOFTracker

[Ethan Tyler @ETyler01]

@RealErnestARS @allan_cheapshot It's a really tough section Tony. It's unfortunate, but at least some voters got to learn a bit about Tibor.

[Ethan Tyler @ETyler01]

@RealMissyHyatt @WONF4W Yes. The guy with a British accent, if that helps.

[Ethan Tyler @ETyler01]

@RealMissyHyatt @WONF4W Let me know your thoughts - good or bad.

[Ethan Tyler @ETyler01]

I always enjoy participating in these shows. Your view may vary, but I thought Sangre Chicana was the big winner here. He's my number 1 pick in Mexico.

[GG @roheblius]

Part 1 of our WON HOF series is up. @davemeltzerWON & I were joined by @ETyler01, @JMuseMich, & @mattfarmer93 to discuss the historical and Mexico candidates.
