Agreed. One (of many) stumbling block is that they haven't actually influenced any bands who themselves would make it into the RNRHOF.

I'm very skeptical about the Hall, I think it has a major inconsistency in terms of what merits are required to be entered, however, I get why Bon Jovi arent in it.

They are a very powerful, commercial touring and once upon a time recording entity, but 'artistically' they are basic and haven't been influential to any new artists that the Hall would deem credible. They certainly haven't shaped music in the same way a number of current entrants have.
