Lex Luger in 1993

By Scott Keith on March 26, 2014

Hey Scott,

I'm watching the RAWs from 1993 on the Network and wondering why the sudden change in character with Lex Luger at the Intrepid body slam thing? Strange that he changed from heel to face with no real explanation.

That's all I got.

Thanks.
Because they were paying Luger a shit-ton of money for a character that was belly-flopping like Rikishi in a wading pool, and they figured that with Hogan gone they would kill two birds with one stone and get their American hero and return on investment with Luger. And honestly, if they hadn't fucked it up with the Summerslam delay of the payoff, it would have worked fine.
