Folks, this is huge. This is historic. This is long overdue—kind of like an election recount in certain swing states, but we won’t get into that.
Lex Luger, the man, the myth, the narcissist, is finally taking his rightful place in the WWE Hall of Fame in 2025, and let me tell you, nobody deserves it more. This guy wasn’t just a wrestler—he was a superhero. He had the muscles, the attitude, and, most importantly, the red, white, and blue Lex Express—which, by the way, was almost as American as me.
The Big Announcement
WWE broke the news on X, formerly known as Twitter (which I made great, by the way), in a video featuring Cody Rhodes delivering the news to Luger. And let me tell you, folks, it was emotional. There was Luger, sitting with Diamond Dallas Page, the guy who has done more rehab work than Congress after a government shutdown. And when Cody told him? Waterworks. Hugs. Feelings. Not gonna lie—I felt something. Maybe even a tear. But a strong, manly tear.
Why It Took So Long
Now, listen—Luger’s HOF status has been a very touchy subject for years. Some believe WWE held off due to his connection to Miss Elizabeth’s tragic passing, and while we never forget history, let’s be honest—Lex deserved this a long time ago. Just ask JBL and Ron Simmons, who have been saying for years that Lex should’ve been in already. And you know what? They’re right.
Lex Luger’s Legacy
✅ Body of a Greek god – Seriously, this guy made action figures jealous.
✅ WCW, WWE, NWA legend – If you don’t know about his matches, educate yourself.
✅ Slammed Yokozuna like it was nothing – America won that day.
✅ HOF-worthy career – Even before the announcement, he said he’d be content either way. That’s classy. That’s humble. That’s Luger.
Final Thoughts
This is a tremendous decision. WWE is getting it right—and that doesn’t happen often, folks. Lex Luger is finally in the Hall of Fame where he belongs. So, on behalf of true wrestling fans everywhere, let’s salute the Total Package. U-S-A! U-S-A!
