In an unaired segment taped on February 22, 1994, during a television production of WWF Superstars in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, Lex Luger snags the World Wrestling Federation Championship belt from WWF Champion Yokozuna's "Official American Spokesperson" Jim Cornette and is later introduced by ring announcer Bill Dunn as the "new World Wrestling Federation Champion" in a preview of what might happen if he defeats Yokozuna at Wrestlemania X. Unfortunately for Luger, he did not win the Championship at Wrestlemania X, and Bret Hart walked away that evening with the title, with Luger never officially holding the WWF Championship during his nearly three years with the company.
"As a matter of fact, man let me see that a little closer. That belt feels pretty good, doesn't it? As a matter of fact, if you don't mind Mr. McMahon, why don't we just show Mr. Cornette here, what this belt might look like around my waist."
