Every year, there is an honorary Diva inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame. Many great WWE Divas of the past have been honored on the grandest stage of them all.
Now, it is time for this year’s inductee to join wrestling history and be honored the night before Wrestlemania in Dallas.
This year, WWE will be inducting former WWE Diva Jacqueline into the WWE Hall of Fame. She will join The Fabulous Freebirds, The Big Boss Man, The Godfather, and Sting in the class of 2016.
Jacqueline spoke with FOX Sports recently, and the news was announced earlier today by them as well. When asked, she said the following about her WWE Hall of Fame induction and her “retirement”:
What was your first reaction to being inducted into the Hall of Fame?
Jacqueline: I was so overjoyed. It’s a great honor, it’s the highest honor to receive in WWE, and to be in my home town… it means so much to me.
What have you been up to now that your in-ring career has wound down?
“On the record, I’m not retired. I’m just not active right now. I keep busy. If push comes to shove, I can step in the ring right now. I might be rusty, but you don’t forget. It’s just in you, you don’t forget that… I’m keeping myself busy. I’m painting now, I do art paintings and drawings. That keeps me pretty busy.”
