LAS VEGAS — WWE announced the six-member class for its 2026 Hall of Fame, with AJ Styles, Stephanie McMahon, Demolition, Sid, Bad News Brown, and Dennis Rodman set to be inducted. The 27th Hall of Fame ceremony will take place on Friday at 6 p.m. ET in Las Vegas, the day before WrestleMania 42.

The ceremony will also honor the match between Hulk Hogan and Andre the Giant at WrestleMania III as the 2026 Immortal Moment. The Immortal Moment category was introduced at the 2025 ceremony to celebrate historic matches. Andre the Giant became the first WWE Hall of Fame inductee in 1993.

Styles, a WWE Grand Slam Champion, enters the Hall of Fame after a professional wrestling career that spanned nearly three decades. Before signing with WWE in 2016, he made brief appearances in WWE and WCW, then competed on the independent circuit, in Ring of Honor, and in NWA-TNA, where he became the first X-Division Champion in 2002 and a two-time TNA World Heavyweight Champion. He returned to New Japan Pro Wrestling in 2014, winning the IWGP World Heavyweight Championship twice and leading the Bullet Club faction.

Styles debuted at the 2016 Royal Rumble as a surprise entrant and immediately confronted Roman Reigns. He went on to win the WWE Championship twice, the United States Championship three times, the Intercontinental Championship once, and the Tag Team Championship twice. He wrestled The Undertaker in The Undertaker's final WrestleMania match and had his final professional wrestling match in January 2026.

McMahon, the daughter of Vince McMahon, debuted as an on-screen WWE character in 1999 and adopted a villain persona less than a year later. She was part of a storyline marriage with Triple H, and the two formed the McMahon-Helmsley Era faction. She won the WWE Women's Championship in early 2000 and held it for about 150 days, later serving as general manager of SmackDown. In 2013, she reunited with Triple H as part of The Authority. Beyond the ring, McMahon served as WWE executive vice president, chief brand officer, and chairwoman and co-CEO. She also introduced Charlotte Flair, Becky Lynch, and Sasha Banks on Raw in July 2015.

Demolition, the tag team of Ax and Smash managed by Mr. Fuji, won the WWE Tag Team Championship three times between 1988 and 1990, accumulating 698 days as champions. Their first title came at WrestleMania IV in 1988 with a victory over Strike Force, and their initial reign lasted 478 days. Crush joined the team in 1990 and was part of the group's third championship run.

Sid competed in NWA, WCW, and WWE during his career, serving as a member of the Four Horsemen stable. He debuted in WWE in 1991 and wrestled Hulk Hogan in the main event of WrestleMania VIII. He won the WWE and WCW Heavyweight Championships twice each.
