Uh...Luger had potential I think. His prime was towards the beginning of his Career back in WCW in the early 90's. I enjoyed a Match or 2 he had with Flair, and still remember his heel turn on Sting at Clash Of The Champions with Medusa I believe. I was a fan of Luger vs R Steiner for some reason lol. I dont think he deserves the crap he gets "to an extent" I mean dude is wheel chair bound now and I just cant knock him like I used too.

Before Wrestlemania 23, they had wrestlers talk about stories of when they were younger, and Kenny Dykstra had a picture posted of him by Luger on the bus.
Scott Hall was actually going to get a push around this time as a top guy, but says that he ended up getting run over by the Red, White and Blue bus.
I remember the Lex Express back in my younger days. Fun fact as well. I attended Luger's second last WWF show ever, in Sydney, Nova Scotia (his last was in Halifax). He took on Yokozuna in a losing effort, and actually got a USA chant from the crowd.

I actually had a Lex Express t-shirt, but I got rid of it.
It was a tad too tight, Toomi.

Did the Lex Express use ICOPro for fuel?

I loved Luger around 96/97. Especially his theme music.

Lugar was pretty good in 89. Feuds with Michael Hayes and Ricky Steamboat were pretty damn good.

It's easy to forget how good he was because he burned through his prime really quickly. From 88-91 he had the potential to be huge. Once he went WBF it was a long downhill slide. I know we all like to bag on the guy but there was a time when Luger really was the goods, we forget that.
