Former WWE Hardcore Champion Bob Holly had some scathing comments towards Triple H when it comes to HHH "wanting all of his little buddies" into the politically driven WWE Hall of Fame. In the candid interview with The Shoot Radio, Holly also criticized WWE for not getting behind Dolph Ziggler and praised Daniel Bryan's run to the WWE World Heavyweight Championship.
Bob Holly on Triple H and the WWE Hall of Fame:
"They try to make that Hall of Fame legitimate. But if you notice, to me it's politically driven. A dead giveaway is Hunter wanting all of his little buddies, his little circle first. He's taken care of all them. But the thing is, how can you put Lita in the Hall of Fame? Not saying she doesn't deserve to be there, but how can you put her in there before Chyna? Chyna is the first and only female Intercontinental champion and that's what drives me nuts because they're trying to make this a legitimate hall of fame and it's obvious they pick and choose who they want in there. If this was pro football or basketball or anything else, Chyna would be in there."
CB's Analysis: On the subject of Chyna being inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame, Bob Holly is absolutely right. She deserves the nod despite her post-WWE issues, especially since so many guys in the Hall of Fame have had demons of their own. Chyna was a huge deal in WWE during a wildly popular time, and yet she barely gets mentioned when it comes to the history of the Attitude Era that she helped shape.

Bob Holly on Why Dolph Ziggler Should Be World Champion:
"I love this guy. He is the best talent. He has everything it takes to be number one. They (WWE) sit there and their always preaching that you gotta have the heart, desire, & will. You gotta work your butt off and on and on and it's like Sheamus was the world champion within six months. How did he deserve to be world champion? Don't insult the fans intelligence by telling them it takes this this this and this to make it to the top when it doesn't. It's Hunter's choice or whoever is at the round table. It's their choice, but Dolph Ziggler does sell tickets. How many times does Dolph Ziggler have to step it up and say hey look at me? Every time he's stepping in the ring he's saying look at me look what I can do. That guy steals the show every single night at house shows, I will guarantee it."
Bob Holly on Daniel Bryan Winning the WWE World Heavyweight Championship:
"I'm glad he won the title. He's another one who worked his tail off and he deserves it. I don't care about his size. Some people do but it shouldn't be that way. Wrestling isn't real, so why should it matter? I think he deserves to be world champion, despite his ups and downs trying to get there. I'm sorry to hear his dad passed away.
With the neck surgery though, he needs to stop doing the missile dropkick. Every time i saw him doing that i was like that has got to hurt his neck because it whiplashes your neck. That's another one he needs to stop doing in addition to the headbutt. My advice to him is enjoy the ride. If they strip the title from him and he never gets to the point where he gets it back, he had it, he made it, enjoy the ride from here on out. He's still making good money. His merchandise sales are through the roof. Just enjoy the ride, have a good career with WWE and don't do those 2 moves."

CB's Analysis: Holly is spot on about Dolph Ziggler and Daniel Bryan too. Ziggler has deserved a bigger push than he's had recently and it's unfortunate that he hasn't gotten a chance to really run to the top of the WWE after a concussion cut short his original World Title run.
As for Bryan's injury, I hope that Daniel heeds Bob Holly's advice and stops doing moves like the Missile Dropkick and the Flying Headbutt. And of course I agree that Bryan's title run was amazing to see, even if he has to fight through some more adversity to get back following the neck surgery.
