Dennis Rodman’s upcoming induction into the WWE Hall of Fame Class of 2026 continues to draw reactions from wrestling legends, and one of the most meaningful responses came from someone who shared the ring with him during wrestling’s wildest era.
On March 21, 2026, Diamond Dallas Page took to social media to publicly congratulate Dennis Rodman following news that Rodman will officially join the WWE Hall of Fame this year. Page’s message carried extra weight because the two men were directly linked during Rodman’s memorable run in World Championship Wrestling during the late 1990s.
Page posted a throwback photo of himself facing off nose-to-nose with Rodman from their WCW days — a moment that captured the intensity of their rivalry during the height of the Monday Night Wars.
After sharing the image, Page made it clear he believes Rodman earned the honor based on his commitment to the business and the energy he brought into wrestling at a time when celebrity involvement was becoming a major talking point.
“Congratulations to @dennisrodman on his induction into the #WWEHOF!”
Page followed that congratulatory message with praise that reflected his firsthand experience working alongside Rodman in the ring.
“An exciting, worthy opponent in the ring and one of the greatest basketball players of all-time! 💎🏀”
Those words carry credibility because Page wasn’t just a bystander during Rodman’s wrestling career — he was part of the chaos that defined that era. During Rodman’s time in WCW, he aligned himself with Hulk Hogan and the New World Order, instantly becoming one of the most recognizable celebrity figures in wrestling. That led to several memorable encounters involving Page, including heated confrontations and high-profile matches that blended sports entertainment with mainstream celebrity attention.
Rodman’s wrestling appearances weren’t treated like short-term publicity stunts. He regularly showed up on WCW programming, took physical risks inside the ring, and embraced the storyline intensity that defined the era. One of the most famous moments from his crossover run came in 1998, when Rodman skipped practice during the NBA Finals to appear at a WCW event alongside Hogan — a decision that shocked the sports world and helped cement his place in wrestling history.
Now, with Rodman set to enter the WWE Hall of Fame alongside names like AJ Styles, Stephanie McMahon, and Demolition, reactions like Page’s serve as reminders of just how impactful Rodman’s time in wrestling really was.
