IMPACT Wrestling Hall of Fame will see a couple of more names to be inducted.

It has come to light that the iconic voices of TNA/Impact Wrestling, Mike Tenay, and the late Don West will be inducted into IMPACT Wrestling Hall of Fame.

During Victory Road, it was announced that Mike Tenay & Don West will be inducted into the Hall of Fame ceremony that will take place at Bound for Glory this October. The pay-per-view will take place at Cicero Stadium in Cicero, Illinois on Saturday, October 21.

Don West will be posthumously inducted into the Hall of Fame. Sadly, the pro wrestling veteran passed away in December last year following a tough battle with cancer.

Prior to lending voice and becoming a pro wrestling broadcaster, West had been a popular figure as a sports collectibles pitchman. He and Tenay worked as a unit behind the announcer's desk from TNA's launch in 2002 until 2009. Tenay was later paired with another pro wrestling legend Taz on commentary.

Tenay even won the Best Television Announcer Award with Wrestling Observer Newsletter on multiple occasions. Tenay decided to call it a day from the industry back in 2016. 

The duo will be rightfully inducted into the IMPACT Wrestling Hall of Fame, which was introduced back in 2012. With Tenay and West being inducted, the prestigious honor will see a total of 13 inductees:

Check out the list below:

  • 2012: Sting
