"People" in Memphis really looked at this sack of shit and were like "damn this is our hero and I'll cheer him forever!"
>>18290292 (OP)If that's what their stars looked like, imagine how much like goblins normal Memphians looked.
I found a good channel on yt that uploads uswa, cwa, etc etc and its fucking decent stuff. Give it a shot, try a studio show or a live show at random. Its old fashoined southernn wrasslin.
Black people are the cultural tastemakers and influencers in this society and he had the co-sign from that community. Periodt
>>18290330Bryan Turner's VHS Rehab is also full of wrasslinkino
>>18290292 (OP)Man has lived the gimmick of a king,beloved by people of his shithole,was a pioneer of tv wrestling,took underage brides and will be remembered in annals of history.
One of territory goats.

The whole appeal of Memphis wrestling was that everyone looked like someone who was friends with your dad.
>>18290437Whose dad is friends with two satans ?
>>18290437So this is the shit Cornette still has wet dreams about. Grim.
>>18290443for real. i mean one satan sure, thats everyones dad. but two?
>>18290312I would not recommend going to Memphis. My last gf went to school there.
>>18290302He was charged with sodomy so it could be oral or anal.
>>18290292 (OP)Watch a single Lawler match from this era. I dare you.
>>18290292 (OP)Great promos, punches, and he can work with anyone
Scott Hall had a notorious eye for talent and called Jerry one of the greatest to ever to do it. During a match the two had once at some indy show, Scott did the whole bit of throwing his toothpick at his opponent. Jerry had a small piece of a toothpick already handy and he stuck it inside his eyelid and walked around the ringside area with it. Literally one of the best improvisational actors in history and could do in the ring on any given night what a Hollywood stunman would have train for months to even attempt and it was all in front of live crowds.
168 wrestling championship wins too.
Bow down to the....bow down to the King.
Bow down to the king.
>>18290302>fucks your 13 year old daughter>cuts a promo to the newspaper calling her a mudshark>exoneratedIt's legitimately shocking that Lawler never had anyone try to cancel rape him. Is he that unimportant that no one even cared enough to try?
>>18290292 (OP)https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QJyjKNqeW9k
>>18293312he's too good on the stick they knew they'd never go over like prime cena hitting you with a fine speech
>>18292577He's a god-tier comic book artist too.
>>18293580This. He's extremely impressive with art that it's a shame he doesn't get to do it more
Jerry the king and Ric Flair were both born in 1949 and both have had the longest careers in wrestling. Rivaled by only each other
If some zoomer makes a thread how "he didn't even know how to wrestle and looked weird" then thats too bad
>>18293580>>18293638its crazy to think if it werent for a friend letting him hustle on the radio he might have been drawing superman in the 80s
>>18293651He ain't gonna fuck ya, mark
>>18294048Took them out to Burger King when they were done too, so it was all good.
>>18290292 (OP)Stupid people love their dictators.
>>18294917Hes just like me, only it's Rallys
Boomeranons gimme some good feuds of his,I know about kaufman and terry funk what else is there ?
>>18293651Zoomers literally think the Young Bucks are good wrestlers. Their opinions don't need to be taken seriously at all.
>>18293651Having a long career doesn't mean they were good
>>18296888The match where they carried drugged out Jeff and broken down Matt shows the Bucks actually are good wrestlers when they're not doing the retarded overly choreographed spot. Lawler is incredible and carried The Miz to his best match he ever had.
>>18296784Bill Dundee. They feuded for years, first with Dundee as a babyface and then with Dundee as a heel

Imagine seeing this in the 1970s
>>18290292 (OP)love the King. Was happy to see him doing cons again i thought that stroke KWAB'd him for good.
If you want some real Lawlerkino watch this
https://youtu.be/h8-NcHKQJ-k?si=aVuUB5eWYcWx2XOY
>>18296874This. Actually his being locked in a cage above Bret and whoeever (Kane's early dentist gimmick comes to mind) was fucking great, too.
>>18293312people on twitter and reddit always try to bring it up whenever it's mentioned, but there's nothing they can do, no one is cancelling his bookings over it
>>18290292 (OP)people in the south are shoot retarded, this isn't new information
>>18297593kek not wrong. plus memphis is shithole central
Lawler is one of the all time greats. He even carried Miz to one of the best matches of his career.
>>18290292 (OP)Top 20 all time at worst. I'd even accept higher than that.
>>18290330Memphis wrestling really is peak southern culture. And fuck OP, Lawler drew more dimes in Memphis than most wrestlers will ever see.
I'm gonna be real with you if you don't like the king maybe this board isn't for you.
>>18299573There was a reason he held the belt so often, people genuinely enjoyed him. He ran for mayor twice, had local ad spots and a resturant. Everyone knew who he was growing up, either from wrestling or tv ads.
>>18290413Yeah, i enjoy that channel. I didnt want to mention it since dude was saying wwe was after him. But yeah, i try to watch a few uploads a week whether its uswa or a lesser known promotion. Pretty cool to know some of pw gets down with southern wrestling.
>>18290330You tell us about a channel that's got fucking wrasslin' kino and you don't even tell us what it is? Wussupwitdat?
>>18290292 (OP)Keep the kings name out your cockhole, mark
>>18290302bullshit. I don't understand how you gon fuck a 13 year old
>>18290330what's the channel, slapnuts?
> "People" in Memphis really looked at this sack of shit and were like "damn this is our hero and I'll cheer him forever!"
No.
Lawler’s philosophy was the babyface should always chase, and lose 90% of the time. That way fan’s would always come back. It worked, because Lawler would sell out 10,000+ seats weekly in the same stadium. Lawler wasn’t the hero, he was the guy stopping the heroes.
New York’s (WWF’s) philosophy was the babyface should stay undefeated. Bruno, Hogan, Cena, Roman, etc. It wasn’t until the 90s that Vince was influenced by Lawler and other southerners that he realized babyface chasing = a more compelling story.
That’s why the longest reign in the modern eras are all heels, whereas in the past they were all babyfaces
