Bautista was supposed to be inducted last year into the WWE Hall of Fame, but that got nixed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
He was supposed to be inducted this year as the ceremony will have 2020 and 2021 classes. It was previously rumored that he won’t be inducted.
Dave Meltzer confirmed it during this morning’s Wrestling Observer Radio.
“Dave Bautista is not going in after all and I don’t know the exact reason. The reason that has been floating around is that there was a date conflict with him. I don’t know that to be the case.”
