Lex Luger, despite a poor performance on the latest WWA tour, has told friends that he expects a call from Vince McMahon about a return to WWE in the near future.
Luger has bulked up to over 300 pounds, and feels McMahon would be a mark for his increased body mass.
In addition, Luger reportedly believes that McMahon is running out of surprise returns, and will turn to Luger for a surprise sometime soon.

Americans are a resolute people who have risen to every test of our time. Adversity has revealed the character of our country, to the world and to ourselves. America is a strong nation, and honorable in the use of our strength. We exercise power without conquest, and we sacrifice for the liberty of strangers. Americans are a free people, who know that freedom is the right of every person and the future of every nation. The liberty we prize is not America's gift to the world, it is God's gift to humanity. - President George W. Bush, State of the Union Address, 1/28/2003
Sounds like someone is a mark for himself. There is no way Luger will be back in the WWE. Maybe as a jobber for Rocky, Stiener, HHH, Nathan, or Brock to squash, that is about it.

Yeah, I think WWE would have to have exhausted all creative possibilities and surprises before they brought Luger in. People can smell desperation, and this move would just reek of it.

What's really scary is that even the wrestlers have the feeling that body mass is all it takes to make it. As much as I would like to hope that this is just a holdover mentality from Lex's glory days (he did have some, right?), I look at HHH, Steiner, etc and seriously doubt it.
Cool beans, man! Bring Lex back. They can do the slow build up to a match with HHH. He can start out by destroying jobbers like Dreamer, Jeff Hardy and RVD.
Just when you think he's gone away, Luger emerges yet again. Should have known earlier in the week when PTI's retarded redheaded stepbrother Around the Horn began discussions about Luger's son being one of the best high school junior basketball players in the country. Either Luger is coming back to wrestling, or he will be getting the parent's face shots on ESPN the next few years. Either way, Flexy Lexy will never go away.
Bringing the French along in a war is like bringing an accordion along when you go hunting. All it provides is useless noise.
I rather thought his last run in WCW was highly entertaining. Remember his 'burial' and rebirth as 'The Total Package'; that was kinda cool. And him and his tag team run with sting was very fun to watch from a train wreck point of view.
I'd love to see a program between Luger and Scott Steiner. I've never seen a black hole of bad wrestling before, and the combination of these two talentless lumps in the same ring would certainly cause one to develop.

Find an El Gigante/Sid Vicious match from WCW if you want to see pure black hole of suck. Or Giant Gonzales/Taker from '93. Or really, for that matter, any match involving El Gigante/Giant Gonzales.
