pop culture and pop art scene. Insiders agree.

Lauper named several wrestling legends at a concert on the 27th August night in
San Diego, where she opened for Rod Stewart. Before she performed The Goonies
'r' Good Enough, she dedicated the song to "her adviser of many years, Captain
Lou Albano," as well as Roddy Piper, The Fabulous Moolah, Andre the Giant,
Nikolai Volkoff, The Iron Sheik and Wendi Richter. She mentioned that she managed
Richter and "knows a few moves." She also played the video of the song
during her performance, which starred Piper, Albano, "Classy" Freddie
Blassie, Volkoff and Sheik, and included a cameo from Steven Spielberg. (Thanks

Cyndi Lauper would be a logical choice to
induct into the WWE Hall Of Fame. Suitable persons to induct her would include
Hulk Hogan, David Wolff, Wendi Richter, either of the late Robby Piper offspring,
and Pat Patterson. We look forward to hearing what the WWE powers that be think
of our recommendation.
Speaking
of pop culture icons, the late, great, Andy Warhol, would certainly also be a
suitable celeb to be inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame - Celebrity Wing. Andy
Kaufman would also be suitable, based on his skits concerning pro wrestling, and
who can forget the David Letterman angle with Jerry 'The King' Lawler. The Media
Man agency has also tipped off various in the loop people at WWE about our recommendations
of Lauper and Warhol for the Hall of Fame.
