Lex Luger is finally getting his moment in the WWE Hall of Fame, three decades after jumping ship to WCW. While many might see this as the ultimate closing chapter of his WWE career, Luger isnt ready to turn the page just yet.
The former WWE and WCW star has been on a Legends deal with WWE for some time, staying connected with the company in various ways. Now, with his induction, the question comes updoes he see this as closure? On his Lex Expressed podcast, Luger made it clear that hes far from done.
Well, I still work with the company, so to be continued. I dont see closure, Luger said. If youd asked me after I left, and then a lot of things that happened after that, if this moment would have ever come, almost 20 years ago, I would have said, Not a chance Ill have anything even to do in wrestling, right?
Lugers relationship with WWE remains strong, and hes loving his role as a brand ambassador. For him, the Hall of Fame is more of a milestone than a final chapter.
I love working with the Legends program, and it goes on, and we get together with the guys for events they send us to. Its like a class reunion. Yeah, the party goes on. Its like a love fest with us and the fans. Its amazing. So I dont know about look at this as closure at all, but just, its just like a gold star.
Luger is making it clearthis Hall of Fame induction isnt a farewell. Its just another accolade in a career that still has plenty of life left in it.
