J.H. Posted June 18, 2016 Share Posted June 18, 2016 Lawler is used best when they have an actual angle for him to be pushed in. The problem is that happens only once every 7 years or so James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eivion Posted June 18, 2016 Share Posted June 18, 2016 I think real question is why they are so insistent on him being an announcer when he could do better as a road agent or training coach . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was always my understanding he doesn't have interest in that position and loves the freedom the announcing gig gives him with working indie dates on the weekend.

Eivion Posted June 18, 2016 Share Posted June 18, 2016 I was wondering if that might be it. Still seems like they can find something else for him that would allow for some freedom while keeping him away from a job he is neither good at or particularly motivated about anymore.

ChrisM Posted June 18, 2016 Share Posted June 18, 2016 As usual, Jim Cornette displays how incredibly tone deaf he actually is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phantom Lord Posted June 18, 2016 Share Posted June 18, 2016 If Lawler wasn't a Teetotaler I probably could believe his version of events. But he's also Jerry Lawler and he's in jail for two days before he sees a judge and I'm sure he has a lot of friends on the police force in Memphis. I'm honestly surprised they didn't call in some favors to get him and the fiance a special hearing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

piranesi Posted June 18, 2016 Share Posted June 18, 2016 The bubble inside a bubble inside a bubble that you would have to penetrate to fuck Jim Cornette at this point would take a team of scruffy space-oil-drillers led by Bruce Willis and Ben Affleck and I'm pretty sure you'd give up because it just wouldn't fucking end with the slo-mo and there's only so many times they can lure you back in with Liv Tyler in a tiny dress and it would still not suck as much as the Morgan Freeman one. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zev Posted June 18, 2016 Share Posted June 18, 2016 And with Liv Tyler being pregnant again, tiny dresses aren't going to be her forte in the immediate future. And now I've that blasted Aerosmith song stuck in my head. You know the one. Gah! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus since he's so big in Memphis you have to assume he has a lot of friends on the Police force and in the city and such. I was just saying amazed they didn't call in some favors get a judge to hear the case sooner so they didn't have to spend the weekend in jail.

Spritenaut 32 Posted June 18, 2016 Share Posted June 18, 2016 It sounded like Lawler was at home and the girlfriend went out drinking. The argument started over Lawler accusing her of lying about where she had been. Not to imply Lawler isn't capable of drinking at home. I'm not really convinced that Lawler was completely sober either. Kinda think they may have both done spittle drinking and things got out of hand.

(BP) Posted June 19, 2016 Share Posted June 19, 2016 The only thing that would make the news item of a pro wrestler from Memphis who dresses like a King being arrested for domestic battery even more objectionably embarrassing is if he used the sugar rush defense the guy who killed Milk used.

Where he once, or hell, several times would regularly speed. Only to blade when pulled over to claim he was rushing to the emergency room? I could be mistaken, but it's so hilarious that I hope it's true. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Sweetser Posted June 19, 2016 Author Share Posted June 19, 2016 That's a pretty standard old wrestlers' story though. I've heard it attributed to a large number of people. Heck, I saw it once on the local indies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
