I think the HOF goes by a variety of other factors, such as service to the wrestling profession outside of the ring. Rodz has done far more than most, particularly with his wrestling school that has produced so many star performers. Rodz also had a more colorful personality than Garea. I remember as a kid that my friends and I loved seeing him in the ring, even against the "good guys", and were thrilled when he got a rare win, always against a weaker jobber. He always had a cult following.
@MALANGA1 He was a good commentator but that was one time thing Pat Patterson was away for a while and a guest filled in each week in his absence and Stevens was in that week but you're right he was excellent.
I hope that Tony Garea gets into the WWE Hall of Fame someday.

Ray The Crippler Stevens was not a bad color commentator. Did he do this a lot at this time in his career?

Garea looks great in this video. In most of the other videos on here he is past his prime, sportin 20 extra lbs on his gut.

Please between one who is a 5 time tag team champion when that meant something and a guy who never won a title, how Rodz in the HOF and Garea is not?
