Based on title reigns alone, would you say he's a future Hall of Famer?
>5 IC title reigns, putting him in a three way tie with Ziggler and Triple H for third most IC reigns of all time
>297 combined days putting him in 10th longest combine days of all time putting him ahead of The Rock, Jeff Hardy and Chris Jericho
Also, post other semi irrelevant wrestlers that actually have an impressive title history/feat/accomplishment, despite never making it to the top of the company.
Rikishi got in.
he was the ic title god. he literally came back from a shit long injury and won the ic title back immediately on raw
Miz and Swagger's world title reigns will make them a shoe in for the Hall of Fame unless they do something to seriously piss off the company. They might not be headlining their class but they will 100% get in.

Hard to say. Other people have got in for far less, but numbers aside, his reigns weren't all that memorable. He also has a King of the Ring title under his belt, so that might further promote his case.
Even if he has the CV, looking at Hall of Fame inductions from recent years, there's usually only half a dozen inductions every year, and they try to induct a variety of talent including women and tag teams, not just the big stars. I think Barrett sits in the midcard but is still behind other guys like Christian, Rhyno, Goldust, Matt Hardy, William Regal, etc. who will likely receive inductions first. Could be 10+ years away if it is to happen.
I see no reason why they wouldn't induct a 70 year old Barrett into the HoF. Sure he won't be one of the headline inductions that year, but he'll be on the card. I'm one of the people fucked off about they kept fucking up his pushes over and over.

He got injured whenever they wanted to push him. Hell he got injured when they wanted to push the fucking league of Nations at mania. Dude is made of British glass.

R-Truth won thr US Title like once.

Rikishi was more over than Barrett could ever hope to be.

he is literally the Janettey of the New Gay and has a faggot youtube channel. Real impressive
>>1962410
He'll be a token bong induction 10 years from now
I feel like he'll probably come back at some point. Money talks.

Koko B. Ware and the fucking Bushwackers are in the HOF. Yes Barrett should make it if those jobbers did.
They'll probably try to get him inducted in 20 years but he'll injure himself just before the show.

Bushwhackers were top heels in the territories who pioneered hardcore wrestling and REEEEEEEE FOREIGNERS heel tactics and even got a five star match from >meltzer
When they joined wwe they were way past their prime but still managed to get over with casuals
Sht one of them was even Tiger Mask for a while
