The wrestling world has reacted with excitement after news broke of Big Van Vader being posthumously inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame next month.
Bleacher Report broke the news yesterday that Vader, a former WCW World Heavyweight Champion would be inducted in the latest class alongside The Undertaker.
On Twitter, several stars of wrestling reacted as seen in the Tweets below.
There’s no word yet on who will induct Vader.
With his imposing size and unbelievable agility, Vader was more than just a great “big man.” In front of the camera, he was Vader, behind the camera, Leon White was respected by his peers.
For his accomplishments and much more, proud to say he’s in the #WWEHOF! https://t.co/QiVKIb9g0D

VADER IN HOF!
Congratulations to the family of @itsvadertime on the well deserved (overdue, in my opinion) induction of Leon White into the #WWEHOF
My matches with Vader were some of the best and wildest of my career. pic.twitter.com/njjr2aqzG9

As a massive Vader and Boy Meets World fan as a kid, this was peak tv for me.
