A shame since Lawlers actually been decent this year since he went heel again.
Oh well bring on Corey Graves!
Or we're gonna get double the jbl......

Lawler deserves due process but I'm glad the wwe now has this zero tolerance policy regarding domestic violence

Not good at all for him or the missus. In terms of commentary teams, I'd just keep it as Ranallo/Saxton and use it as a reason to take Saxton out of the RAW team and leave that as Cole/JBL. I know Graves is damn good, but I don't really want to break up the Phillips/Graves team since they have such good chemistry. They might add David Otunga who just started commentary for Superstars and Main Event (Since he'll be at the tapings that would make sense)

They should bring up Corey Graves, they probably will use David Otunga.

Oof. Saw his name trending on Twitter, and now I kinda wish he'd died like I had initially thought. Let's not go that far. He's a shithole for what he did, but you shouldn't wish anyone dead.

Definitely not wishing him dead at all - just saying my initial reaction to seeing his name trending was "Oh lord, did he die?!" (Same thing happened when I saw Meatloaf's name come up this morning too.) The grief surrounding domestic assault will ruin him and his rep (which wasn't squeaky clean before but could at least be considered just fodder for online smarks)...

My guess is she was under the influence was out of control and probably threatening to kill herself.
I'm glad I'll never have to listen to Lawler again, just wish the circumstances were better

Maybe, but I can't really buy that reasoning when he put the gun on the table and told her to go ahead and kill herself. His version says she said she knew where his gun was, went and got it and told him she was going to kill herself. Yeah if his version is accurate then I see him back in the 'E in the not too distant future.

From the full article he seems like he was defending himself and trying to get her not to hurt herself by driving drunk. Oh well, it's he said/she said. Even if that turns out to be true, Zero Tolerance means Zero Tolerance. The Zero Tolerance is if you are accused you are suspended. Which he has been. and would only be fired if he is convicted. If his version is accurate, and is proved to be so in a court of law, he would not be convicted and therefore the 0 tolerance does not come into play.

What a terrible situation, I always had a feeling King wasn't terribly..repsectful towards women. Can we get Corey on commentary now though?

HMM Was it domestic assault or child abuse?
Maybe lawler should finally lay off the women a quarter of his age?

Well since they have conflicting stories, it will have to come down to a medical examination on both of them to determine who's most likely telling the truth.

For all we know Lawler hasn't done anything wrong, so I suggest people cut it out with some of the comments being made against him until we know more.
Lawler has had a lot of failed relationships in he's time and to my knowledge none of he's exs have even hinted at abuse, so let's not act like this would be in character for him.

I suspect there is a fair level off crossover between "unstable" and "willing to date/marry men more than twice my age"
I'm withholding judgment until the facts are out

Hope that Graves may get a shot on the SD commentary team now. The guy is outstanding, especially considering it wasn't the original role in the company he had Don't split up Corey/Tom!
