A two-time world champion who once traveled the desolate wasteland of America on a bus named for himself, the image of Luger that persists in wrestling is that of a guy who had all the tools but never quite made it, a man who never seemed interested enough in wrestling to make anything of his innate talent.
This runs contrary to everything most people believe about Lex Luger. is incredible, watching Ric Flair and Arn Anderson try to sell Steve “Mongo” McMichael’s promos is utterly delicious, and “The Total Package” Lex Luger is the greatest wrestler of all time. Here’s what I know, deep in my bones: Rey Mysterio Jr. I should have known that ranking every member of the nWo would lead me down some dark paths, and here I am watching WCW Monday Nitro circa 1997, the wrestling I grew up on.
