Lex Luger on Dusty Rhodes Giving Him the Torture Rack as a Finisher

– During a recent edition of Lex Expressed, former WWE and WCW Superstar Lex Luger discussed his surprise that more wrestlers haven’t used the Torture Rack as a submission finish. Below are some highlights (via WrestlingInc.com):

Lex Luger on more wrestlers not using the Torture Rack: “I’m surprised no one’s used The Torture Rack as their finish. I know it’s not an easy finish to put on anybody. There’s some guys who have some good physiques out there who could pull that off. I got a young guy, Jonathan Young from [Survivor]…he’s starting to train to be a wrestler and he could be the ‘Total Package 2.0’ and maybe use the Torture Rack as his finish if he ends up geting into wrestling. So there’s a possibility in the future. There’s a guy in AEW, Powerhouse Hobbs, he’s using The Rack a little bit. He’s got a good look. I respect him.”

On Powerhouse Hobbs contacting him to ask him permission to use the Torture Rack: “I’m like, ‘Man, rack ’em up! I don’t consider it like ‘my move.’ It’s a great finish, and Dusty [Rhodes] loved it. Dusty gave me the finish because he liked the way it showed my body.”
