Xero, I love you and all, but.... Fuck Lex Luger.
I would rather watch an hour of John Cena than 15 mins of Luger.

Okay, I was a fan of Lex in WWE. I loved the Lex Express. I jumped on that bandwagon faster than anyone else. If he would have stayed as a mid carder I'd say he's okay, but he can't lace up Hogan's boots, and I think tpww has a mutal stance on Hogan.

He is one of the greatest stars of the 90s, according to WWE's DVD release "Greatest Stars of the 90s".

Luger was horrid in the roundtable discussion on the Wrestler DVD.

I want to see WWE put some random worker from the current roster on his own bus, and just ship him across the country.

THE ZIGGLER EXPRESS IS COMIN' YOUR WAY!

WATCH OUT FOR EVAN BOURNE WHEN HE FLIES INTO YOUR TOWN!

PUNJABI PITSTOP TOUR

She was a grown woman that like drugs. She died from it,sadly. Not Lex fault,Lex didn't force her. Lex life change since then for the better.

Lex Luger was a very good worker until 98 when he got lazy because he realize he don't have to go all out to make a lot of money(everybody else was doing it). Lex Luger had charisma and a connection with the crowd that a lot of wrestlers wish they had. CM Punk is not even on Lex level yet.

How can you call him a bad worker? He work the crowd better than most.

Lex Luger was never 'a very good worker'

Is Luger still paralysed or is he walking about again? Haven't heard any updates in a long time.

well technically this was done in the (semi) hopes we'd find out luger killed himself..

I recall marking out when he beat Hogan for the title on Nitro. I recall the massive pop from the crowd when it happened too.

True, but the stories of Hogan's politics are well known. The NWO was gaining alot of heat from the crowd that were still "loyal" to WCW. Alot of people just wanted to see the belt taken off Hogan after he held it for over a year...even though Hogan would win it back 6 days later. Notice that Hogan jobs to Luger on Nitro, but has Luger job on a PPV (Road Wild 1997). Im not saying Luger was a great worker, but he had his moments against Flair in 1988 and Sting in 1991-1992. After he left the WWF in 1995...it was all downhill.

Great song. The video on Summerslam 93 with this song is immense.

Because he's the biggest legendstar...

I guess he's been pretty damn lucky considering everything his body has gone through with drugs and the spinal injury/paralysis.

I think he was roid free when he debuted in the WWF. I don't know how long he was off them though.
