History
In an effort to recognize and chronicle the names of its past, the LPW Hall of Fame was announced in 2006 when Lords of Pain Wrestling operated under the Psychotic Wrestling Alliance name. The first inductees were selected by a poll amongst the promotion's roster. The ceremony was originally scheduled to be held before the Altered Reality III pay-per-view, but was postponed until the spring of 2007. The event took place at the Rocket City Music Hall on April 24, 2007. Stone, Stanman, and Snapple were the first inductees.

For the 2008 class, the Hall of Fame selections were choosen amongst the veterans of LPW. The selections were PWA founder and former owner Villiano 187, PWA's first head writer Phantom Lord, and the first World Heavyweight Champion, Marty.

LPW did not announce a class of 2009 for unknown reasons, but announced a class of 2010 who were chosen by the veteren staff members. Due to a tie, four were inducted instead of three. They were former World Champions D. Hammond Samuels, White Falcon, SoL and Wevv Mang.
