Former WWE and WCW Superstar Lex Luger’s Health Continues to Decline

Former WWE and WCW superstar Lex Luger’s health continues to decline. Fan reports were confirmed via reports from other sites in regards to Luger’s state of health during a fan fest during the weekend of Aug. 1.

Reports from fans that attended the event were supported by a story featured on WrestleChat.net, which states that Luger was confined to a wheelchair throughout the entire Mid-Atlantic Wrestling Legends Fanfest that took place in Charlotte, N.C. from Aug. 1-3.

The 56 year-old was not only confined to a wheelchair, but he reportedly had to sign autographs with a pen stuck between his ring and pinky fingers. Luger recently had been seen walking with a cane, but his health has apparently now deteriorated to the point where he needs the assistance of a chair.

On Oct. 19, 2007, Luger suffered a spinal stroke that led to temporary paralysis. He had recovered greatly since the stroke, even gaining the ability to walk with a cane and drive a car again. However, it seems as if he is now dealing with issues with his health yet again.

Luger recently released an auto-biography entitled “Wrestling With the Devil: The True Story of a World Champion Wrestler – His Reign, Ruin, and Redemption.”

So sad. I love Lex. He’s definitely in my prayers.
