Was Lex Luger supposed to win the WWF Title at WrestleMania 10?
Yes. It is generally considered that Bret Hart’s WWF title win as actually a swerve and not meant to be until the actual day or week of Wrestlemania. At a WWF television taping before Wrestlemania X, Lex Luger stole the WWF title from Yokozuna and went to the ring to celebrate for the audience. Since this was to air after Wrestlemania it was thought that it would be used after Wrestlemania and that Lex Luger would win the title. Apparently Bret Hart was going to originally walk out of Wrestlemania X though and the whole Lex Luger tv taping was a swerve from the start. However, Lex Luger was also going to win the title at the event. The original plan was that Lex Luger would pin Yokozuna in the first title match and then Bret Hart would pin Lex Luger in the second and final match. However….Lex Luger got drunk the night before Wrestlemania in a New York bar. The next morning an article in a New York City paper was published by a reporter that was apparently in the bar with Lex Luger. T
