Thought is, he is going to be apart of the Sting/Hogan segment, trying to get Sting to reveal why he went EVIL!~! given their friendship. This is almost certainly it. He'll likely take a baseball bat beatdown from Sting. Seeing Sting beat up his broken down 'best friend' of 20+ years should solidify him as a heel. That's a possibility, but also - to a lot of iMPACT fans - Sting is a millions times more beloved than Lex Luger (if they even remember him - he was midcard tagging by the end of his run). The only person more over as a face than Sting in TNA would be. . . . well no one actually. So maybe this is their best bet for helping Sting become a more hated face.

I'd mark if it was Superman villian Lex Luthor in the Impact Zone.
However, this is kinda Meh, to me.

Recipient of Flair's HOF Ring? Matt Morgans's tag team partner this week? Jay Lethal's choice for #1 in the rankings?

From what I understand Luger can't take any bumps or any ring action so I would think that a beatdown isn't an option.

Didn't he make a guest appearance at TNA a couple of years ago with American Male/Insufferable Asshat Buff Bagwell? Yeah, I remembered he was wearing what looked like a sailor jacket. The one I assumed Captain Ahab wore in "Moby Dick" as he was trying to capture that whale.

There's only two ways to use Lex Luger:
1) use him as an old decrepit legend who gets beat up to get heel heat for someone 2) use him as a manager for a young muscleman. I could see him managing Rob Terry or Matt Morgan and call them the new Total Package. It might actually work to get them over.

If this is true, then I'm sure he'll be getting Flair's ring from Hogan.

I don't see why this should be a problem, so long as he doesn't wrestle.

The one I assumed Captain Ahab wore in "Moby Dick" as he was trying to capture that whale. it was the same sailor outfit he had worn 20 years before...thats no joke. I remember seeing him in it during an old WCW show. Maybe he will come out in a sail boat. But most likely he is just coming out to depress everyone.

Well, that didnt happen.
Might have been due to running late on everything though. The 2nd hour was super-rushed. Might have just scratched it til tomorrows taping, who knows.
