Former WWE star Paul London will be inducted into the Indie Wrestling Hall of Fame 2023 Class.
GCW recently announced London as the sixth member of the Indie Hall’s second class. There has been no word on who will induct him.
London debuted in 2000 and has worked for several promotions over the years, including WWE, ROH, TNA/Impact, Zero1 in Japan, PWG, Lucha Underground, and numerous indies, for which he still occasionally works. After not wrestling regularly since 2018, London announced in October 2022 that he was once again accepting bookings.
