The Frank Gotch Award, which goes to a talent who “brought positive recognition to the industry,” is being given to Titus O’Neil.
The Verne Gagne Trainer Award, a newer award from the Hall of Fame which recognizes a prominent trainer, will go to Al Snow.
Rick Martel will receive the Lou Thesz award for wrestlers who have used their skills in public service, and the Gordon Solie Award in broadcasting excellence is going to Lance Russell.
The George Tragos/Lou Thesz Pro Wrestling Hall of Fame is at the Dan Gable Museum in Waterloo, Iowa.
