With the end of an era, my one regret is that we didn’t get at least a brief return to heel Jerry Lawler. He was just so damn good at it and was at his wittiest and funniest when he could play the heel. So I figure it could be fun to speculate-what would heel Jerry Lawler have to say about today’s WWE (beyond ranting about puppies mind you)?

He’d probably just be a Bloodline suckup and a Ripley/Bianca punching bag after he gets inappropriately horny.

A lot of Lawler's schtick is to be over the top offensive and from a bygone era that does not work anymore.
I don't even mind offensive humor, but when you do it the volume he does, it just feels lazy.

Didn't they try heel Lawler again a few years back (want to say shortly before the Pandemic era)?

Don't you put that evil on me Ricky Bobby!
(puppies and blatantly kissing the ass of heels were his entire personality. Remove puppies and you remove 2/3 of him)

Jerry Lawler and the LWO would be like Bobby Heenan/Jesse Ventura and Tito Santana.

I’m good never having to hear him ruin a woman’s wrestling match with his drooling and breast-ogling ever again.

Only if he were in pre-puppies mode.

The old company released people too. Like Droz. Talk about a guy who should've had a job for life.
Lawler will be fine. Indy shows. Convention appearances. Maybe AEW bids on him. Really I hope he can just be healthy and quietly retire.

I'll have to dig out whatever 2k game it was, just so I can repeatedly hear, "I dated a redhead once. No hair, just a red head."
