Announced via a video call with The Undertaker, which has been shared on social media, Demolition, the iconic late-1980s tag team of Bill “Ax” Eadie and Barry “Smash” Darsow, are going to be inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame Class of 2026. This honor recognizes their dominant run during the golden era, including a then-record 478-day reign as Tag Team Champions. The pair are the latest inductees for 2026, confirmed, following AJ Styles last week and Stephanie McMahon in September 2025.
After years of tension, including lawsuits, a CTE-related class action lawsuit, and ongoing disputes over intellectual property rights, Demolition finally reconciled with WWE following Vince McMahon’s exit. This led the pair to sign six-year Legends contracts, paving the way for new merchandise such as action figures, video game inclusions, and t-shirts, officially healing the long-standing rift with a team that had long been considered one of the Hall of Fame’s most notable omissions.
