WWE announced its official website that Honky Tonk Man will be inducted into the Hall Of Fame by Jimmy Hart.

Hart was managing Honky during his reign as the longest Intercontinental Champion of all time.

WWE.com: The Mouth of The South joined forces with Honky Tonk Man after a vote of confidence from the WWE Universe revealed Honky wasn’t quite as beloved as he thought he was. With Hart in his corner, The Honky Tonk Man found new confidence in the ring and in the music studio. He defeated Ricky Steamboat to become Intercontinental Champion and held onto the title for 454 days, a record that still stands today.
