Luger’s wrestling career spans nearly four decades, beginning 38 years ago. The two-time WCW World Heavyweight Champion retired from in-ring competition in August 2006.
Though Luger never captured a WWE championship, his career features several notable achievements in the company. He famously shared the 1994 Royal Rumble victory with Bret Hart in controversial fashion.
The former Superstar’s last WWE match took place on September 3, 1995. He teamed with Shawn Michaels at a non-televised event in Canada, where they defeated then-Tag Team Champions Yokozuna and Owen Hart by disqualification.
The 2025 WWE Hall of Fame ceremony will take place during WrestleMania 41 Weekend, adding another legendary figure to wrestling’s most prestigious institution.
