Lex seem like a really good dude :ehh:

I still remember being a kid in the projects in NYC expecting the Lex Express to come thru in Summer 93 :bryan:

That was a dope story he told bout Yoko(RIP) helping him at the USS Intrepid :ehh:

I still think Lex not getting the title at SummerSlam 93 was a WOAT booking decision :hhh:

Both title matches ended in count out or DQ that year :hhh:

HBK vs Perfect (literally my top 2 GOATs) for the IC title ended on some bullshyt :stopitslime:

RIP Mr GOATfect and Yoko :mjcry:
