Then he wins it in December and never loses it (stripped after winning the World title in July 1991). And I may be the only one who marked out a bit at him winning it again in 98 for a cup of coffee.

Included classics with Sting and Steamboat and arguably the greatest match in WCW history (Wargames 1992). <br /><br />None of Luger's reigns came close to that. And Rude had BETTER matches with Steamboat and better storylines.<br /><br />Luger's U.S. Title reign(s) in 1989 were basically treated like he had a belt to stay important but it wasn't his primary focus.
