– False Comeback recently interviewed former WWE and WCW star Lex Luger, who discussed his current relationship with WWE, his friendship with Sting, and the story of the original plan for him to win the title at WrestleMania 10. Below are some highlights (transcript via WrestlingInc.com).

On his current relationship with WWE: “Thankfully we have a great relationship now and I’m with their ambassador program. I’m enjoying it and we have a wonderful relationship.”

On if he will ever be in the WWE Hall of Fame: “It would be an honor someday, but we will see.”

Luger on the stories of him winning the title at WrestleMania 10 being scrapped due to talking about it at a bar: “False. I’ve heard that story, totally false. I actually had my family up at a major pay-per-view (PPV), my wife and kids she had friends up there, I was never anywhere near a bar I was spending time with my family.”

Luger on his friendship with Sting: “He’s a wonderful friend, he’s been with me through the best of times and the worst of times. I’m thankful for our friendship and we’ve been getting together and doing some signings recently, it’s been like old times. One of those friends when you gather and you probably haven’t seen each other for years and you pick up right where you left off. Great guy, for me the best part about him is as great as a performer and wrestler as he was, he’s an even better person.”
