Lex Luger states that he felt no jealousy when Kevin Nash won the WWE Title in 1994.
Nash, wrestling as Diesel, held the title during a prominent face run following Luger’s unsuccessful championship campaign.
During a recent edition of his “Lex Expressed” podcast, Luger was asked about his envy of Nash for achieving the top spot and title.
He said, “Zero. I was so happy for Kevin. I thought he’d be a great World Champion. So thrilled for him, for the opportunity.”
Nash held the title for nearly a year, from November 26, 1994, until he lost it to Bret Hart at Survivor Series 1995.
During a recent edition of the “Busted Open Radio” podcast, Bully Ray analyzed The New Day’s heel promo directed at Big E, highlighting a specific moment that aided their heel turn.
Ray said, “The New Day are making it seem like Big E’s broken neck is not that big of a deal and should not have stopped him from calling them and getting in touch with them…They’re using some of the most famous examples of broken necks. ‘Well, how come you couldn’t come back? Or how come you couldn’t call us Big E? Stone Cold [Steve Austin] broke his neck and he came back. Edge broke his neck and he came back. Kurt Angle broke his neck and he came back. Why couldn’t you? Are you too good? Are you too good for The New Day now because you’re a suit?’ In their minds, they’re completely justified. That is what generates the disdain.”
Ethan Page feels down after failing to win the North American Championship on this week’s episode of WWE NXT.
Tuesday’s episode featured Tony D’Angelo offering Page a shot at the title, which the latter accepted after initially doubting its worth.
The match concluded with D’Angelo successfully retaining his title following a spinebuster.
Later in the show, Page was seen leaving the arena, expressing that he was better than the situation he was in, or once was, but felt he had lost his direction.
Page remarked that he didn’t believe he was All Ego anymore and was uncertain about how to regain the path to the NXT Championship, ultimately stating he felt lost and ashamed as he walked away.
