The former WWE Diva is known for bringing the division back to prominence in the mid-1990s and is perhaps better known for an infamous segment on WCW Nitro when she threw the WWE Women's Championship in the garbage can.
The WWE posted a RAW Fallout video that featured the current WWE Divas talking about Blayze's career.
"I'm super excited anytime a Diva goes in first of all is amazing," Summer Rae said. "This year, we were all kinda talking in the locker room and were all like, 'We wonder who it is,' and for such a strong powerful woman who made such a great impact -- not only on the Divas locker room now, but for generations before us -- it's amazing. I'm really looking forward to the Hall of Fame in general this year, but also because she's going in it."
The Bella Twins also shared their thoughts on Blayze's forthcoming induction.
"Brie and I are very excited about Medusa getting inducted in the Hall of Fame," Nikki Bella said. "I think it's just amazing every year when we get a female or a Diva in the Hall of Fame. Not only is it amazing for them, but it's amazing for us and our division so, you go Medusa! Very proud."
Added Brie Bella: "Her strength is just amazing and I have to say she paved the path for us and it's nice to see her in the Hall of Fame."
NXT Women's Champion Sasha Banks also shared her opinion.
"We have this big movement going on called 'Give Divas a Chance' and she is definitely a Diva that deserves to be in the Hall of Fame," Banks said. "So, congratulations to you Medusa and power to the women. Keep bringing more."
Said Natalya: "Medusa represents every reason why I wanted to be a Diva in the WWE in the first place. She is rough around the edges, she is bold, bright and beautiful and she is different. I couldn't be more proud that she is being inducted into the Hall of Fame."
Lastly, the recently returned AJ Lee touched on Blayze getting inducted into the Hall of Fame.
"Medusa, Alundra, she is a legend. She's a bada--. She's not a Diva, she's a woman's wrestler and she could probably kick all of our a--es and she looks better than we all do at her age right now." (Laughs) "She deserves it and it's kind of overdue. Look at the women who are in the Hall of Fame right now. We can only dream to be one of those women one day."
