In the city that gave birth to ECW, Paul Heyman enters the WWE Hall of Fame tonight.

Heyman is the headliner of the 2024 WWE Hall of Fame inductee class. It also includes Bull Nakano, The U.S. Express (Mike Rotunda & Barry Windham), Thunderbolt Patterson, Muhammed Ali, and Lia Maivia. Streaming live on Peacock, it begins at 10 p.m. Eastern time.

When asked about his speech, Heyman said that he plans to "wing" it instead of being heavily scripted. He wants to take the temperature of the crowd and find out what they want him to talk about.

Undisputed WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns will be inducting Heyman.

We'll also hear from The Rock tonight as he inducts his grandmother Maivia. We're just one day away from Rock returning to the ring to team with Reigns against Cody Rhodes & Seth Rollins at night one of WrestleMania 40.

This is the first WWE Hall of Fame class that Paul "Triple H" Levesque had full authority in choosing. The ceremony is taking place from the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia after tonight's SmackDown.
