The 2024 WWE Hall of Fame ceremony saw The Undertaker appear to induct the late boxing legend Muhammad Ali into the Class of 2024, a moment that saw Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson be presented with Ali’s People’s Championship.
The Undertaker gave the stage to Ali’s widow, Lonnie Ali, who presented the Hall of Fame speech for her late husband.
During the speech, Williams recalled how The Rock reached out to Ali for his blessing when he took the nickname of The People’s Champion.
Lonnie then presented The Rock with a custom People’s Championship to celebrate the occasion.
