Damn, even Jerry Lawler has moved away from Memphis?****
prayers up for him.

For us old timer’s
Lawler had an unusual vocabulary.
For instance Banana Nose (lance Russell), Jabroni, and of course pencil neck. I’m so old I remember when Lawler used to get beat up weekly on Memphis wrestling

Pencil neck geek is one my dads favorite phrases.
The two greatest kings ever (Lawler and Elvis) both from Memphis! Btw, did you guys know that the HTM was Lawler's first cousin? If you have to ask who the HTM is then never mind.
Lance Russell was the best wrasslin announcer ever!
That 11-12:30 time slot on Saturday mornings on Memphis Channel 5 WMC with Lance Russell and Dave Brown was the absolute best!
Lawler, Dundee, Tojo, Mantell, Rich, Jimmy Hart, Valiant, etc

King-related; when I got my first gig post MSU graduation @ FedEx in Memphis (1991), my I/T team lead was Jerry Calhoun. I didn't know who he was at the time, being some sort of a local celebrity/referee/etc. Needless to say, not a great first impression.
Played on the FedEx softball team with him and some former ball players including my college roommate (who reads here too).
Just thought I'd share, noticed his twitter is mentioning Lawler. Calhoun Tweet

I would say despite this, there's a 90% chance that he'll be wrestling some independent show against Lord Humongous in like Murfreesboro, TN by the Spring.
No clue how this relates to Lawler, but it’s the best post in this thread.PUPPIES!!!
I remember when Memphis had a small earthquake/tremor back in the 70's. Lawler came on Saturday morning telling everyone that it was just Lance Russell's banana nose hitting the rungs on the Memphis Arkansas bridge while he was driving over.
Back in the days it was on channel 13 before the move to 5. Spent a lot of Saturdays down their tell the ref, Jerry Calhoun I believe in as the one. Nooooo he didn't pull his hair.
Good times.
Do y’all remember when Lawler and I believe his manager the late Sam bass tore off lance’s Baxter suit
Classic, couldn’t even make that sh*t up now
And also don’t forget the hair vs hair matches
