Guest Memphis Report post Posted April 27, 2003 Despite internet rumors, it appears as if WWE has little to no interest in bringing back Lex Luger. However, Luger continues to work out and get into shape in case there is ever interest. Source: 1wrestling.com Well that still doesn't make up for Goldberg.

Guest Slingshot Suplex Report post Posted April 27, 2003 They've shown disinterest in people before and then went ahead and signed them eventually anyway. The first one that comes to mind is Van Dam. Hell,they've got people on their roster now they don't have an interest in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Youth N Asia Report post Posted April 27, 2003 That's not really news. It's not news till someone actually signs a deal. One week the reports say interested, one week they dont...endless cycle. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Downhome Report post Posted April 27, 2003 I still say he'll get signed. Luger is not listed for May's WWA tour or anything like that soon, so he's obviously keeping his options open just in case. Just have faith, he'll come soon enough! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Cerebus Report post Posted April 27, 2003 Oh no. Lex Luger is not Mr. America. My heart bleeds. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest AndrewTS Report post Posted April 27, 2003 Yeah, for now. But once Goldberg bombs but laughs all the way to the bank with his final paycheck, Luger sends in a photo of himself looking like HHH did in Downhome's old sig, and... Vince: I'm interested.

Guest Cerebus Report post Posted April 27, 2003 TAKA should be Mr America I was actually thinking of having Tajiri comeing down in all American stars & stripes, with a giant cowboy hat, & "Real Amercian" theme music with his name being "Real American." I mean come on...that would be funny. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Space_Cowboy Report post Posted April 27, 2003 As soon as Vince gets desperate enough, he'll bring in Luger, he's already proven himself to be either insane, senile, or both, so i'm certain the Lex Express will be on it's way eventually, unless Vince blindly stumbles back into success again, which isn't looking likely.

Guest Galactic Gigolo Report post Posted April 28, 2003 I still say he'll get signed. Luger is not listed for May's WWA tour or anything like that soon, so he's obviously keeping his options open just in case. He's not being brought back because he was a complete asshole trouble maker on the last trip. He was also in pretty bad shape, and bored me to tears, as per the usual.

Guest Youth N Asia Report post Posted April 28, 2003 I don't think Luger should be an option. With the WCW guys that they brought in for ratings, Steiner, and Goldberg, that at least looked good on paper. I think everyone knows that Lex Luger will never be a draw again. It just can't happen. He's too lazy these days to put in a * match Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Choken One Report post Posted April 28, 2003 Savage...Yes Randy SAVAGE is the last hope for Vince. Savage can worj in today's environment... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Youth N Asia Report post Posted April 28, 2003 Savage or Sting would do about the same as Steiner. Bret Hart is the only guy they could possibly bring in that would impact the ratings. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
