[redskins3656]

Lex seems like a really cool, down to earth guy.

[DG3744]

OOMG Total pagkage!!! Greatest wrestler of all time!!

[BradNC11175]

DAMN LEX HAS SHRUNK! Geee.... I wonder why?! Sounds like he has a higher opinion of Flair than Flair does of him but then again Flair hates everyone lol!

[responare]

Holy shit....what happened to him???

[JRocker69]

@responare He had a real bad stroke back in 07, which paralyzed him from the neck down at the time, and made him lose well over 100 pounds. He was around 170 at the time of this taping. However, now he cant really do a whole lot of lifting, or anything like that to stay muscled up like he used to due to the stroke.

[deelove3000]

@JRocker69 Thanks for the info... How could a guy in that kind of shape have a stroke?  I know the dude was on steroids and all that but unless he had serious blood pressure issues I can't see how he would have stroked out?

[JRocker69]

@deelove3000 Well, he was in a motorcycle accident not too many months before the stroke. Then like I said, in 2007 he had that spinal stroke which I guess simulated from the injuries of the motorcycle incident.

@1Eu4ic Bottom line is this.....Sting was the "Bigger" WCW star overall. When it comes to WCW stars....Sting is probly the biggest overall out of anyone. He is the ultimate WCW purist. The WCW's Undertaker. But that didnt make Luger his side-kick. Luger had his own legendary status in WCW as WELL as WWF. He was his own man and wrestler. Pippen always played with Jordan. He won titles WITH Jordan. Luger won World Championships by himself. He was no Pippen to anyone

[williwo]

@1Eu4ic I have a collection of WCW...I watched WCW live all the time, lol. And I watched Pippen as well. You are implying he was Sting's side-kick, which was simply not the case. He was Sting's friend....and they teamed up a lot, but they were never an "Official" tag team. It was like when Hulk Hogan and Ultimate Warrior would team up in the early 90's. Or when the Rock and Mankind teamed up. Theres no "Side-kick" element to it....that would be describing what Miz and Alex Riley were

[williwo]

@1Eu4ic I dont think calling him Scottie Pippen to Sting's MJ is really fair. Luger did things that Sting never did...like slamming Yokozuna, and winning a Royal Rumble. He was a friend and partner of Sting's at times....but he was no ones side-kick.

[cookman1963]

karma bitch!

[cidibeat]

THE TOTAL PACKAGE LEX LUGER.GOOD TO SEE YOU LEX

[ZERO9098767]

damn, i feel stupid, i thought he died a long time ago, like in the 90s/early 2000s

[Klopecs]

He lost his muscle from a spinal stroke that left him paralized for a period of time.

[minigini613]

[cronaldofan017]

@minigini613 They took his steroids away.

[MideonGodwinn]

[xxxgatorxxx]

[mrjamesb56]

....From 270 to 170 lbs ,that's Brutal ,that's the Biggest Weight loss on Steroids I've ever seen ,...(I played College Ball with a Guy who went from 165lbs to 270lbs in 2 years on Juice)...

[blackras9]

On October 19, 2007, Luger suffered a nerve impingement in his neck that led to temporary paralysis. He underwent intravenous antibiotic treatment and was expected to make a full recovery. Nearly a month after his spinal stroke, Luger was still in a quadriplegic state. As of June 2008, Luger was said to be able to stand on his own for short periods of time and walk using a walker. Dallas Page (DDP) stated that he weighed about 170 pounds when they went to the premiere of the movie The Wrestler.

[F0Xhound009]

damn what happened to him

[ed2kou1]

Good to see you lex. God bless. He does deserve the hall of fame.

[abidamn]

nice to see Lex Luger hope he get inducted in wwe HOF 2011 in Atlanta he deserves the spot

[RaslinRIP3]

I miss Luger. He reminds me of my childhood with the red white and blue gimmick against Yokozuna. He was part of the new generation era in the WWF.

[DeathAdder83]

I fucking hate Luger.

[shervman]

Very nice, love Lex, Thanks for posting :)
