Sting is the headline inductee in the WWEs Hall of Fame Class of 2016 - but Snoop Dogg is also going in! Sting, a six-time WCW Champion as well as a former United States and Tag Team Champion, will be entered during the induction ceremony on April 2.The Icon - not to mention rap Superstar Snoop Dogg, who has enjoyed a long and entertaining association with WWE - are not the only big names going in, though...The Godfather The Godfather The Godfather had many names during his WWE tenure - he was known as The Goodfather, Kama and Papa Shango, too - but he impressed in the ring under each of his monikers, winning the Intercontinental Championship on one occasion as well as nabbing the WWE Tag Team Titles with Right to Censor pal Bull Buchanan. The Godfather was also famed for his vibrant outfits, catchy entrance music and entourage of glamorous females.The Fabulous Freebirds Fabulous Freebirds One of wrestlings most legendary groups will finally be recognised - and their moment will arrive in Dallas, the city they tormented during their heyday. Michael P.S. Hayes, Terry Bam Bam Gordy and Buddy Jack Roberts formed in 1979 and ran roughshod through Texas World Class Championship Wrestling during the 80s. Their legacy is still felt - the Freebirds set the trend for wrestlers to be characterised with their own entrance music.Big Boss Man Big Boss Man The former corrections officer was a charismatic presence in WWE, often handcuffing his opponents to the ropes after defeating them. Boss Man, surprisingly agile for a man in excess of 300 pounds, wrestled legends like Shawn Michaels and Randy Savage and even forced The Mountie to spend a night in a New York jail after beating him at SummerSlam 1991. Boss Man last competed in a WWE ring in 2002 and passed away in 2004.Jacqueline Jacqueline Jacqueline won the WWE Womens Championship on two occasions, beating Sable in 1998 and then Harvey Wippleman - a male competitor who competed in drag as Hervina - in 2000. A trainer and mentor on the first series of WWE Tough Enough in 2004, Jacqueline also shocked the world in the same year by pinning Chavo Guerrero to become Cruiserweight Champion, the third woman to claim the belt.Stan Hansen Stan Hansen Hansen, much like WrestleMania 32 main-eventer Roman Reigns, began his sporting career on the gridiron field, which is perhaps where he learnt his ferocious, hard-hitting offence, offence that broke Bruno Sammartinos neck! Hansen enjoyed success in Japan, beating Antonio Inoki, but also flourished in the States, ending Lex Lugers record-setting, 523-day reign as United States Champion at Halloween Havoc in 1990.Snoop Dogg Snoop Dogg will enter the WWE Hall of Fame! Rap superstar Snoop Dogg has sold 37 million albums worldwide and made a big impact in WWE, too. Snoop served as Master of Ceremonies for the Divas tag-team match between Maria and Ashley at WrestleMania 24 - enjoying a smooch with Maria after the bout, as well as laying out Santino Marella with a clothesline! Snoop, cousin to WWE Diva Sasha Banks, also hosted an episode of Raw in 2009, during which he speared Chavo Guerrero.WrestleMania 32 booking detailsWrestleMania 32 will be shown on Sky Sports Box Office (channel 491) and Sky Sports HD Box Office (channel 492) at midnight on Sunday, April 3 (Monday morning)WrestleMania 32 will be repeated on Sky Sports Box Office (channel 491) but NOT Sky Sports HD Box Office (channel 492) between 10am, Monday, April 4 and 10pm, Tuesday, April 5.Repeat showings will last for four hours, with the final showing STARTING at 10pm on Tuesday, April 5.The event is priced at £19.95 for UK customers, €24.95 for viewers in the Republic of Ireland.

But Altidores journey to Toronto will have to go through the leagues allocation process which governs the return of players to MLS.Goals have been hard to come by for Altidore in England but he remains a key player in the U.S. national team setup.Cash from the Defoe sale is expected to trigger a series of moves as Toronto, a franchise yet to make the playoffs since entering the league in 2007, looks to fill key defensive and midfield holes on its roster.Toronto is looking to add another designated player in a creative attacking midfield role, with two targets currently playing in Europe. Neither will be available until July 1 and the MLS club may find itself with a logjam of DPs unless something gives.Star midfielder Michael Bradley isnt going anywhere. Toronto execs look to make the intense American the team leader on and off the field.Reports in Italy have also suggested an interest in 27-year-old Juventus forward Sebastian Giovinco. Toronto also has its sights set on Real Betis defender Damien Perquis, a 30-year-old French-born Poland international.Sunderland (3-7-11) currently stands 16th in the English Premier League, one point above the relegation zone. The move to the northeast of England reunites Defoe with Black Cats manager Gus Poyet, who was both a player and assistant manager at Tottenham.Sky Sports reported earlier Tuesday that up to 10 Premier League clubs had been in the hunt for Defoe. Toronto GM Tim Bezbatchenko said last week that most of the interest came from teams in the bottom half of the standings.The January transfer window is a sellers markets. Reliable strikers are hard to come by, even if they are on the wrong side of 30 and coming off a groin injury.The price of a player like Defoe may be high in January but it pales compared to the financial losses of falling out of the tony Premier League.Defoes future has been cloudy since Toronto turned down a franchise-record transfer fee from an English team at the end of the summer transfer window. That turned into a soap opera and Toronto execs were determined to resolve the matter in the January transfer window before Defoes return date of Jan. 17.Defoe seems to have landed on his feet, with Sunderland reportedly willing to take on wages of 80,000 pounds (C$145,000) a week. The MLS Players Union listed Defoes Toronto salary at US$6.18 million (which equals C$142,375 a week).Some will say Defoe was a disappointment in Toronto. But he was a striker, not a saviour.When healthy, Defoe was a force to be reckoned with in North America. Toronto did not lose (6-0-2) when he scored in league play.It speaks volumes about Torontos woeful offence in the past that Defoe, who ranked fifth on Tottenhams career scoring list with 142 goals in two spells, exits No. 5 on Torontos all-time scoring chart with 11 goals — a feat he achieved in 13 MLS games.He scored three goals in his first two games. But after potting a goal July 16 in a 1-1 tie with Vancouver, he did not score again, missing 12 of the next 18 games through suspension (one game) or injury (11). Defoe returned to England for injury rehab as rumours swirled about his future. And Toronto (11-15-8) failed to make the playoffs for the eighth straight year.Thats not on him. But Toronto oversold the quiet striker.Tim Leiweke, president and CEO of Maple Leafs Sports & Entertainment, brought David Beckham to the Los Angeles Galaxy and led the way in luring Defoe to town. Toronto pulled out all the stops, even enlisting Raptors global ambassador Drake to bend Defoes ear.ddddddddddddLeiweke did not expect Defoe to be Beckham. But the English forward did not become the face of the franchise and was seemingly ill-prepared for what awaited him.When he was surrounded by cameras and reporters in the Toronto locker-room at the first home game, he looked aghast as he walked out of the showers. Defoe was polite with the media — the biggest complaint was the occasional mild beef over how long he took to moisturize before talking to assembled reporters — and his teammates said he had little ego in the dressing room. But when he left for treatment in England, the soap opera surrounding his future was a distraction.Defoe arrived to unprecedented fanfare last January along with Bradley before a balcony full of chanting, singing fans at the hangar-sized Real Sports Bar & Grill.To come here and to have a reception like that is unbelievable. Such a great feeling, I feel at home already, Defoe said at the time.A double-decker bus was parked outside the news conference where Leiweke touted the signing of what TFC billed as a global football superstar.At some US$10 million apiece, Defoe and Bradley each broke the MLS record for transfer fees. Toronto had started the spending spree in December by signing Brazilian forward Gilberto, another marquee designated player.The club trumpeted the signing of Defoe with a marketing campaign titled Its A Bloody Big Deal, a slogan it perhaps began to regret as the forwards future became murkier and the losses mounted as the season wore on.The slender five-foot-seven striker said at his unveiling that he was here to win trophies and do my best for the club and the team.But a season that started with goals ended painfully with the former West Ham, Portsmouth and Tottenham star on the sidelines. Missing out on the England World Cup squad also hurt, raising the suggestion that moving to a lesser league had not helped his cause.In the end, while he never said it, he seemed he just wanted to get healthy and go home.The two phones that sat in his locker — one presumably for North America and the other for Britain — seemed to tell a story.By the end, Defoe was clearly upset that some had questioned both his commitment to the club and the extent of his injuries.There are a few fans that have said certain things and Im like well thats a bit harsh, but obviously I would never retaliate, he told reporters in October. But at the same time, I think if you do want someone to stay at a football club, at least support them. At least show them that you want them to be here.Defoe said he had never publicly asked to leave Toronto but didnt know what the future held. Toronto, meanwhile, said while he remained their property the club would listen to offers.Still the assumption remained that Defoe wanted to move on and Toronto was willing to accommodate him, as long as it recouped its considerable investment.Defoe underwent surgery to correct his groin problem in the off-season and was given permission by Toronto to train for a week with Tottenham as part of his fitness regimen.Leiweke said TFC would lose money this season due to its investment in its designated players. On the plus side, the club set a franchise record for attendance in 2014.Toronto drew 375,463 fans to BMO Field, up 30,928 over the previous franchise record of 344,535 set in 2011. TFC attracted 15 straight sellouts of 22,591 before attendance at the two final home games dropped to 18,269 and 18,329, respectively.The club drew 308,233 fans in 2013.Toronto averaged 22,086 a game this season, second only to the Seattle Sounders (43,734) and well above the league average of 19,147.Toronto had 17,000 season-ticket holders in 2014 — its most ever — with a waiting list of 3,000.___Follow @NeilMDavidson on Twitter ' ' '
