Same here. There’s a lot of bitter and jealous retired wrestlers out there. Bottom line is that they’re just mad because Luger got pushed almost at the very start of his career and made a lot more money than they did. People like Bret hart and ric flair, sting, the Steiners, Ron Simmons, Jim cornette all have nothing but good things to say about him while all the broke mid card wrestlers are jeolous and pissed off because while Lex was getting the loudest pop in nitro history when he beat hulkster for the world title, they were just curtain jerkers coming out to the sound of crickets.
@jonathanwilliams2183 Luger was pushed too early because he had the best physique of his era and was well paid, a lot of the more experienced guys were jealous of his push and salary....
He was arrogant when he was young because he knew he was getting a big push from management. He had the looks and the physique that could still tickets during that era. He's much more humble now.
Nice guy? 😂 he starts this video by throwing JYD under the bus for “allegedly” doing drugs. Meanwhile, so was he. Wasn’t he with Mrs. Elizabeth when she croaked?
Juice or not this guy was in that 1%, genetically gifted. A different city every day. Watched NWA live back in 88. Everyone wrestled at least 3 times that night
For sure and the truth is everyone was on the juice back then, so Luger was genetically gifted. Flair, Savage, Pillman, and even Bret did them at certain points in time.
Says he was 250 before roids, not as lean as he was but still strong. A huge guy. Considering everyone says the testing was legit in WWF late 92-95 Lex had a fantastic body. I actually met him in the UK on tour in 94 and he was friendly and cool to the fans.
@@machohogan well part of how lex got away with doing the juice when he came into wwf is he actually started out as part of that wbf bodybuilding company vince had started not wwf and they weren't subject to the same type of testing the wrestlers were. If you look back there was some ppv where gorilla and Bobby did an interview with lex and he was flexing and drinking protein shakes making fun of gorilla preparing to come in as the narcissist I want to say WM 8 but don't quote me.
I have a big wrestling library of DVDs and such and Lex is a part of so many different guys matches and it's usually one of the better matches on the disc. I wish he was remembered a little better as an in ring performer. He and Sting were my favorite Tag team as a kid
Yeah Sting with the short blonde hair was my first favorite wrestler when I was like 4, then WCW/Crow Sting, Lex was one of the best wrestlers that would never be the #1 guy, a Scottie Pippen of wrestling if u will
If everything he said is true ( not saying it's not) Imo that's a true friend right there...he worked with jyd so long and established a friendship and he noticed when his partner was off and tried to cover for him.. and stood up for him.. solid friend right there
@@thewrestlingtimemachine sadly that happens to a lot of good friends, bands and etc.. I understand they All have their reasons but as the fans we're like... Come on Man, somebody get a round of beer and bury the hatchet...
Ive stood up for Luger a lot in groups, and i wasnt a fan of his as a kid, Sting was my guy. However, Luger gets unfairly bashed nowadays, even by other pro wrestlers. He was pretty safe and wasnt an awful worker like they say. I wont mention the Elizabeth stuff, ill just say she made her own choices. Other than that I get why guys say these things, it's because he got pushed so heavy because of his look, a lot of them were jealous, and I think thats why I hated him as a fan. Back then he was overrated really bad, and I got sick of the announcers oozing all over him. Now we know they were doing their job and a lot of them werent impressed by him. The problem now is he is now underrated because of that. Making him out to be thevworst wrestler in history is dumb. He was miles better than Warrior and Sid. Like he said too, he always busted his butt. He tore thevhouse down with Flair 42 minutes one night. Foley mentioned that on an old DVD, saying Flair can do a lot, but it wasnt all him, Luger held his own that night. From 88-92 he was pretty damn good. He had good to great matches with Flair, Steamboat, Hansen, Pillman, etc. All great hands but all different ones. He even had a great one with Spivey. I forget which PPV in 90 or 91 it was, butbit was a great match. A few got mad when i said this, but he wasnt much different than Sting early on. In fact Sting was a pretty bad promo that got by on howling and beating his chest in the early days. Luger was the better talker. In the ring, Flair and Sting never did it for me, Luger had the better matches with Flair. Im not sure if it's because Flair felt he needed to work harder in those matches, but regardless thats what happened. I think Luger was the better in ring performer in the beginning as well. Sting was a great athlete but not a natural in the ring. I think working with the same guys hurt him as well. When Flair left thats where Sting really shined, he worked hard and surpassed Luger as a worker with his matches with Rude, Vader, Cactus, etc. He took bumps and man did he tear the house down. Before that he wasnt better though. Go watch matches from 88 to 91 and be honest. In 90 Sting had awful matches on PPV as champ, i was always disappointed, and expected more from my hero. Luger as i said, was killing it, in the Spivey match i think they wanted to show they could still go. Spivey wasnt really getting pushed by WCW, and Luger was pushed aside because Sting was the perceived man as world champion. Yes, Luger is a great guy. In every interview hes honest and humble, a lot better than most that make up stories like Sid does to fit their narratives.
JYD was pretty famous for his drug addiction. It’s what cut his career off at the knees. Just look at the shape he was in early in his career before drugs
I can attest that JYD was both. When I was 17 I lived on an island in the Bahamas, which was only 1-1/2 miles long. JYD came there to work an independent show that Kevin Sullivan was having. Kevin, Dick Slater and most of the other guys were cool and were hanging around the afternoon before the show with the locals. JYD came to a local hangout and asked a friend of mine where he could score some coke. My friend tells him that his dealer is in a house 2 miles down the road (keep in mind that the island is only 1-1/2 miles long). When JYD picked up on the fact that my friend was messing with him he went nuts. At the time, and even for that show, he was in the main event as the top babyface, but the guy was an ass.
The rule old timers had about small crowds was that if the crowd is small you work extra hard . That way the fans tell people about they great show they missed . Maybe they won’t miss the next week
No it seems like a dude a dope half assing it, while the other guy those all the talking. Reminds me of trying to sing along to a song you don’t know lol in that vignette. (I’m a JYD by the way, not really a lex fan but got to call it how I see it.)
It was ok, thing with Lex is he was relatively intelligent when it came to wrestlers and he would overthink too much on those ( alot of mans) & he never had natural charisma but he wasn't as bad as people say. Ivan Koloff is one of the most underrated promos, he would promote his opponent, the venues they were showing up and get his point across without being a moustache twirling heel.
During the time of the dudes with attitudes 1 sting 2 lex luger 3 junk yard dog 4 Paul orndorff And I think the Steiner's and el giante were part of that faction to
2:20 sadly the wrestlers of today don’t feel the same way about “wrestle the same way wether there there’s 100 ppl or 70,000 ppl bc those 100 ppl paid their money and got in their cars to come so don’t short change them just bc there’s only a 100 ppl”
My dad met jyd in a truckstop in Chattanooga tenn in the 80's he ask my dad if he wanted to wrestle, my dad was a long time construction worker 6"3 320lbs an grew up on the streets of Chicago if they would have wrestled it would have been interesting
How dare Lex Luger besmirch my city by calling it, "some small town in Canada!" " I know he's from that dump Buffalo which is a little over an hour away. Maybe if Luger actually wanted to learn about things wrestling, he'd know Brantford was the site of many TV tapings for the NWA in the late 70's early 80's and the WWF from 1984-87 that were used on their various programs. But on a serious note, I had no idea the NWA ran a show here during this time period......not that I lived in Brantford at the time. Wrestling was in a really down period in 1990. Not sure why the NWA would have come here when I don't think they even had any TV presence outside of WTBS, which was a premium channel not everyone got back then. Management must have been desperate. Also, add me as someone who never heard about this incident, when I know an unhealthy amount of PW from back in the day. Thx RV.
I was at the nwa card in my hometown toronto on june 27th 1990 it was held at the cne coliseum. It was a flop the show lex got a real hostile reaction from the fans while ric flair got a large pop.
@@thewrestlingtimemachine It was a really weak turnout. The WWF had dominated "brantford" and Toronto and the problem wasn't the wrestlers, or the location at the CNE. But great wrestlers and location don't guarrantee an attendance. I can't remember the last time the NWA had been in the area, because of WWF saturation but it was a long long long time. If I recall correctly it drew 3000 sold tickets in Toronto which would look empty and it should have drawn at least 8000 to 10000. People only knew the WWF by this time and the promoter couldn't break throught that bubble. And here i am in Brantford, I do recall hearing wrestling was coming back. The WWF did all their taping here and used the tapes for shows on many TV stations in US and Canada. It was all done here. I missed this show, but the General public would have known the JYD as he was over bigtime, just not seen in a longtime as the last time with with the WWF. Again , the NWA show was likely not well promoted but it was hitting all the hot spots, just not drawing. We could get 1500 to 2500 people for a show of TV tapings, sometimes the arena was filled. It could well be for that NWA show that only a 100 or so showed up. They would have been the hardcore and probably wondered , where is everyone. I wasn't at that show. I sure wish i had been. I would have loved to have seen Rick Flair, Arn Anderson, JYD and well even luger, had i known. But most of all in hindsight, I wish i had went so i could have seen Dutch Mantel wrestle. Its only because of UA-cam that I am aware of all the wrestlers that were outside the WWF bubble at that time. Could the handful in Brantford been giving JYD a hard time, yeah its possible, i just wouldn't know why.. it would make more sense to dislike Lex at that time..
Growing up, it was just because they tried to manufacture him as the next Hulk Hogan, right up to bodyslamming yoko and becoming the all American. As a 12 year old, it was still clear.
@tonylego2364 Oh yeah, the way he was booked was pretty bad (the bus going across country to try to win fans, the USA stuff 🤣) but as an in ring performer he was great IMO.
Luger was certainly put together...it doesnt make him a bad-azz...but, Id bet lots of guys, including me, would love to have a Super-Hero body like that...wow!
One thing about lex that i hate is his story changes everytime hes asked about what happened to liz that night when she died hes never told the truth he was more involved than whats hes told
Ontario wrestling audiences did use to throw out racist chants in the 90's and that was for Kwang (Savio Vega) with the mask on. I can only imagine JYD. Then if Lex bumps into him and laughs...it would seem to JYD that Lex was agreeing with the crowd at his expense. I gotta go with JYD on the circumstantial evidence. Lex is saying the audience is never wrong. And F you for killing Liz too pal!
I was a big package fan since 1988 and I don't remember that he teamed up with JYD. But that's very cool. Any idea when this interview was? early 2000s?
Lugar did all kind of drugs and the got wit Elizabeth and she odd when they were doing drugs. Of course he gonna not let you see his other side. He was doing steroids heavy too. Not going to tell the whole truth.

JYD wasn’t no punk mane…
wowww
Ontario wrestling audiences did use to throw out racist chants in the 90's and that was for Kwang (Savio Vega) with the mask on. I can only imagine JYD. Then if Lex bumps into him and laughs...it would seem to JYD that Lex was agreeing with the crowd at his expense. I gotta go with JYD on the circumstantial evidence. Lex is saying the audience is never wrong. And F you for killing Liz too pal!
3:51-Damn! At some point Luger coulda STFU and let the Dog speak!
Well if you saw the original you would know that the dog had just spoke before lugar did, do your homework before you speak and look stupid.
LMBO!
@@thewrestlingtimemachine You can see JYD wanting to say stuff!
@@HereIsWisdom1318 Yes! Luger was hogging up all the camera time getting himself over! 😁
When he says they were getting on him I take that as they were being racist. It’s crazy how them folks cover for each other.
Yes, sropped N bombs and calling him a Gorilla. I heard that before.
The "Junkie" Yard Dog At this point unfortunately...still a legend in wrestling
Bad joke
WPGH 53 Pittsburgh!!!!!!!!!!!
This was after Dog had fallen from grace and Luger was an up and coming star. Dog was probably jealous
Luger was a star at this point already.
Lex. U didn’t take any drugs?
😥
Russian Vids?
From everything ive read and heard from a teddy long shoot, lex got his ass beat and bruised up...
I have to see that. BTW, I meet Teddy Long back in 1997. We taklked for about 15-20 minutes. He hated Ric Flair!
So they was wrestling right after a shower? 🤣
Crack makes peoPle extremely paranoid.
LOL @ Lex Lugar shooting on someone taking drugs
Yeah, they were all on it.
He's a jersey jersey stopwriting for me I hate that
I was a big package fan since 1988 and I don't remember that he teamed up with JYD. But that's very cool.
Any idea when this interview was? early 2000s?
I remember them teaming up. It didn't last long. Interview was around 2004.
@@thewrestlingtimemachine Dog was Dog.
Lugar did all kind of drugs and the got wit Elizabeth and she odd when they were doing drugs. Of course he gonna not let you see his other side. He was doing steroids heavy too. Not going to tell the whole truth.
I have about 5 other clips with Luger on this channel. Drugs are mentioned in the other clips.
Hello Russiavids!
Lex you were scared to death just say it
The reason Miss Elizabeth died from what i heard.
She was a grown ass woman that wanted to do drugs
@@wall91nutz fuck that shit...he influenced her... He's a piece of shit
Exactly heard smh
@@wall91nutz How many times did Luger beat her up?
@@curthennig9448 exactly.... He is a piece of shit, an abuser, an influencer of the worst kind....and as far as I'm concerned, a murderer.
Lex luger...if you read this, I'll be waiting for you at my home...the gates of hell.
People said lex luger could be moody too had a bad attitude too
Lex self destructed which is a horrible way to live
Vincespent much money promoting him then he went towcw remember the bus
🎉😂😂RAZADAZA SAYS HELLO FROM FLORIDA WOW I KNOW LEX LUGAR IS NOT TALKING ABOUT DRUGS WHEN DRUGS AND STEROIDS MIX GOT HIM IN THE WHEELCHAIR BY THE WAY HE LUGAR COULDN'T TALK HE GOT THEROPY FOR VOICE DONE FOR YEARS 😢🎉
Lex you the last person to talk about someone using drugs. You the reason mis eliabeth is dead.
😥
During that time when the incident happened with JYD, he wasn't heavy on drugs yet. He had gotten worse later on in the 90's.
JYD would have beat his a*s!
Look at the pot calling the Kettle Black Lex was on Drugs too he Killed Ms Elizabeth Allegedly
😥
Jyd would have beat luger up.
They had a Packer connection. Bart Starr wouldn't let them fight.
@@curthennig9448JYD was never signed to the Packers
@@kevthegoat8774 Yeah, I know he didn't make the team but he was in Packer camp back in 1975. Luger was around on injured reserve back in 1982/1983.
@@kevthegoat8774 Seen any good Patera interviews lately Kev?
Never liked Lex as a wrestler. Might be a nice guy but he was never a real wrestler to me. All the political gimmick wrestlers annoyed me.
I thought Lex was good.
Lex Loser
I don't think he' s a bad guy but I remember lex saying he had a big ego before he got paralyzed
It's hard to humble when you are good.
A lot of wrestlers have had bad encounters with lex
😥
