Sid Eudy’s son Gunnar was not happy at how the WWE treated his father during this weekend, especially at the Hall of Fame induction ceremony, calling it “straight up disappointing and disrespectful as hell.”
“I’m glad my dad was big enough to put himself over even in death, because WWE damn sure wouldn’t. I didn’t see one single ad for him here in Vegas,” Gunnar wrote on Facebook. “The Hall of Fame gift shop had zero merch for my dad not a damn thing, But they were loaded with all the Dennis Rodman crap you could want.”
He said that the whole thing felt like they just swept him under the rug like a footnote and rushing to get them out of the way.
“Maybe if we had waited another 20 years until all those jealous, insecure ex-colleagues were gone you know the ones who could never match his athletic ability, his looks, or his unbreakable will power to tell them “no” he would’ve finally gotten the full induction he actually deserved,” he continued.
Gunnar said that he tried to stay positive for his son’s sake and while he is not aware WWE did his grandpa “dirty,” he got to see his hero honored.
“That moment with my boy made it worth it. And at least we walked away with the real Hall of Fame ring,” he added. “That’s something solid we can actually hold onto while the rest of this felt like a slap in the face.”
