Not the promiscuous sex part. Just figured I'd get that bait off the hook.
I was reading a feature on IGN where Lawler talked about the upcoming WWE All-Stars and was making up some "dream matches" involving the roster. Some picks were Andre/Show, Swagger/Slaughter (For America, or something), and Hogan/Cena. He also listed Punk/Austin in a battle of lifestyles, and Lawler writes:
"There's something to be said about the lifestyle that CM Punk adheres to – it's a good thing. It's worked for me, and I believe that's why I've had a career that has endured for so many decades. I can honestly say I've never tasted any alcohol — not a sip. I've never had a cigarette or tried any drugs in my lifetime. It's worked well for me."
I've been watching Lawler since his WWF debut, and I'm a bit surprised to hear he's never had any alcohol. The drugs and cigarettes, I understand. But living the life he has, I'm just a bit surprised. It's admirable.
Are there other guys in the WWE (past or present) that have also claimed to have never used drugs, alcohol, or tobacco? I feel like one of the Dudleys is the same way.

Somehow I have my doubts, yet it's not completely out of the question, given that he's still alive, fit to wrestle (sort of) and doesn't seem to have any serious health problems.

Triple H doesn't drink, apparently.

Straightedge, no. Clean/Sober, quite possibly.
Straightedge, even if you let people off the hook on the promiscuous sex thing, also involves the punk music subculture, which it'd be hard to see Jerry as a part of with his look.

I feel that's making a generalization. You can be straight edge - against drinking/drugs/smoking. May or may not include sex. Judging by how Jerry Lawler looks overall physically he seems to be in good shape so I can believe it. My question is, has he had work done on his face? I've never seen it mentioned but his nose looks different than it used to.

Would make sense as to why he was feuding with Jake Roberts over Jake being a former druggie

My question is, has he had work done on his face? I've never seen it mentioned but his nose looks different than it used to. Yeah, back when Bisch. was the GM and they moved the announcer booth to the old Nitro position, he had work done.

But he did taste alcohol. During his feud with Jake Roberts, he spit Whiskey in Jake's face, and I think Jake may've dumped some on his face. Jake said in his dvd that whiskey was spit in his face instead of iced tea, which he would have prefered.

It's the reason he and JR had Chris "Big Dick Johnson" DeJosephs reprimanded by Vince after he sprayed them with Beer on the 15th anniversary RAW.
I'm pretty sure Lawler is a bit of a health freak. Not the point of religiously counting calories, but you don't see many guys of his age in the kind of shape he is, particularly after eleventy billion years of wrestling.

Yeah, if you want to see how well that clean living does for someone, just compare Lawler to Flair. There is only a 6 month age difference there.

Funny how Punk and Lawler both have this straight edge thing in common... and then they have fetishes for Pepsi and Coke (respectively).

Not saying I don't believe Jerry, but how do you then explain some of the stuff that happened in Memphis during his time there? Christmas Creature, Nightmare Freddy?
Note: I am just joking. I actually do believe him.
