I think yes. Multi-time World Champion, was always a top tier guy in WCW. His WWF bust wasn't even his fault. He was mega-over with his Lex Express stint in the summer of 93 but that assinine booking of him winning by countout at SummerSlam and the locker room coming out to celebrate with all the confetti made him look like a goof. He never recovered from that and fans didn't care as much anymore.

Probably should. I dont consider him a great, but he had lots of success and was heavily pushed whereever he was. I don't care if he is or isn't personally.

All of these threads can be answered by using the following logic: Koko B. Ware is in the Hall of Fame. Did Wrestler A have a career that was at least as good as Koko? If yes, then he should. If no, then he shouldn't.

Boy, if he goes in before Macho does.............yowzer. Well so many other people have gone in before Savage already. At least Luger is somewhat of the same generation as Savage, as opposed to Edge or Flair f***ing going in twice. Luger definitely deserves it. While he was never lived up to full expectations, I do think he was terrific in most of the roles he filled, despite never exactly being fan. Also, the fact that he's helped change his life around in the last few years as well as offering to help those in developmental not make the same mistakes he has? Absolutely. His journey has been incredible and I think he should get in.

(She was living with him at the time, and the 2 were drug users at the time of her death.) So really, what I meant was that if he gets in before her former husband (whose great sin was basically bringing her into the wrestling business in the 1st place), then...... Yowzer.

As with anyone else for the make believe HoF, the answer is sure, why not?

Macho Man first Miss Elizabeth the following year (maybe get Sting in too) Lex Luger after that
Sort of like how Bruiser Brody should probably go in before Carlos Colon

[ .....I brought up Macho specifically because, in some respects, Luger can be directly tied to the death of Miss Elizabeth. (She was living with him at the time, and the 2 were drug users at the time of her death.) So really, what I meant was that if he gets in before her former husband (whose great sin was basically bringing her into the wrestling business in the 1st place), then...... Yowzer. Savage had no ill words to say about Luger, since she made her own decisions. By all regards, Luger regrets using drugs with Elizabeth, but it's not like if she hadn't started seeing him it would have prevented her death. She was likely a user well before that. And again...I don't see how Elizabeth or Macho Man ties to any of this. This isn't Chris Benoit we're talking about, where intent was there.

When people talk about not loving pro wrestling and just doing it because they could get a paycheck, isn't luger one of the first brought up?
For that, I say no...not while there are many people I'd rather see go in.

He should be in for this alone. I still crack up.

He should be in for this alone. I still crack up. When he does go into the HOF two things need to happen. First, no matter what the cost, they need to buy that footage and show it at the induction. Second, they need to have Billy Whathisname and R-Truth induct him in. If not them I guess Flair or Sting will do.
