Triple H took to Twitter this afternoon to congratulate Eric Bischoff on his induction into the 2021 WWE Hall of Fame Class.
As noted earlier this morning, WWE announced Bischoff for the 2021 Class to be inducted during WrestleMania 37 Week. He joins Molly Holly as the first names for this year’s class. Triple H praised Bischoff and congratulated him.
“@EBischoff has done so much for this industry both in front of and behind the camera, creating some of its biggest characters and events. Now, it’s time to take his place in the #WWEHOF! Congratulations Eric!!,” he wrote.
Bischoff responded and wrote, “Thank you @TripleH. It’s been a hell of a ride.”
Bischoff also tweeted on the induction and thanked everyone for their support.
“Just..wow. Overwhelmed with so many great people here. I try to thank those with so many kind words, but today it’s going to be hard to keep up. If I fail to thank you individually, just know how much this means to me and my family. A sincere thank you to each of you,” Bischoff wrote.
The 2020 and 2021 WWE Hall of Fame induction ceremonies will air on Tuesday, April 6 on the WWE Network. Bischoff and Holly are the first two 2021 names to be announced.
