Jerry Lawler is back to announcing Raw.

Posted by David (aka David) Sep 26 '19, 09:19

The WWE: where a man the FBI caught running a steroid ring and his top advisor, a pedophile, have just re-hired a man who famously believes that Elvis Presley is right about the attractiveness of underage women.

The Andy Kaufman dude? I didn't even know he was still alive much less heavily involved in wrestling. -- nm - Inigo Sep 26, 09:30 9
- Oh, yes. He actually almost died while broadcasting Raw a few years ago. - David Sep 26, 09:33 8
  - He's also famous for not paying attention to the storylines outside of the show he does so you lose a ton in narrative. - Will Hunting Sep 26, 09:42 5
    - It's a move you do to keep him from joining Jim Ross. It makes zero sense otherwise. -- nm - David Sep 26, 09:43 4
      - Ross & Lawler wouldn't exactly mesh with Cody's vision for AEW? - Strongbad, Champ Champ Sep 26, 09:57
      - Honestly let him go. I don't think he moves the needle one inch. -- nm - pmb Sep 26, 09:45 2
        
        I dunno. Like when Fox scooped Madden and Summerall in that first NFL on Fox season. Just having the right voices added credibility to the new outfit. -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Sep 26, 09:49 1
        
        Lawler hasn't been a regular on air in years. I don't think he's really missed. The nostalgia of Ross and Lawler lasts about 2 minutes. -- nm - pmb Sep 26, 09:58
  - he was 'dead' for 20 minutes. Luckily they had a doctor right next to him -- (link) - Remlik Sep 26, 09:41 [youtube] 1
    - I gained a lot of respect for Cole for how he handled everything. -- nm - Tim Sep 26, 09:45
