Jerry Lawler height - How tall is Jerry Lawler?

Suffered a heart attack, on September 10, 2012, during WWE Raw (1993) broadcast.

Inducted into the Professional Wrestling Hall of Fame in 2011.

One of the 100 Greatest Wrestlers of the 20th Century, as determined by Inside Wrestling magazine.

Once again re-enacted his popular "Kauffman" slap on an August 2008 airing of "Raw", to prove a point to Ted DiBiase Jr. and tag team partner Cody Rhodes. The concept was him still being credible (with honored guest "Hacksaw" Duggan), verses the younger generation of wrestlers. When told that they weren't yet born when Lawler struck the comedian on [error] in 1982, he demonstrated its effect.

Will be inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame by William Shatner. [March 2007]

(27th February 2001) Left the WWF under protest after his wife "The Kat" (Stacy Carter) had her contract terminated.

Between scenes in Man on the Moon (1999) actor Jim Carrey remained in character as Andy Kaufman and spit on pro-wrestler Jerry Lawler, just as Kaufman did in 1982. A stunned Lawler reacted by grabbing Carrey by the hair and jerking his neck and sending him to the hospital. (This was later revealed to be a publicity stunt to promote the movie). In 1982, Lawler also sent Kaufman to the hospital for spitting on him. Lawler has since revealed that not only was his feud with Kaufman staged, but the two were actually good friends.

Is a huge fan of the Cleveland Indians in baseball, and the Cleveland Browns in football. He became a fan of both teams when his family briefly lived in Ohio as a youngster. He infamously wore a Vinny Testaverde Baltimore Ravens jersey at Summerslam (1996) to infuriate the Cleveland fans who had recently lost the Cleveland Browns which moved to Baltimore.
