JR Says” Lawler will Quit WWE, If He becomes Mayor”

Friday, July 10th, 2009

lawler_ross

Jim Ross has posted the following on his JRSBarBq.com about Jerry “The King” Lawler running for Memphis Mayor. Lalwer will be quitting the WWE, because the mayor’s position is an full time job.
It looks as it the King is actually going to run for Mayor of Memphis as a special election is apparently going to be held in Memphis in about 90 days. The position of Mayor of Memphis, Tennessee is a full time position and one cannot hold another job, as I understand the matter. Jerry has often talked seriously, yes we did talk seriously on occasion on our many, many road trips together, about how he would like to do something positive for his hometown. Jerry certainly isn’t running for Mayor for the pay day but as an old school, public official who genuinely cares for his hometown and wants to make it better for all who live there. I heard an interview that the King made on a Memphis radio station where he talked about the grueling, weekly travel we undergo about 51 weeks a year for WWE and how that can wear on a person. ( I can definitely relate to that.) Point being is that Jerry has been announcing on Raw since 1994, with the exception of a short interruption in service along the way, logging some staggering miles. Plus, the King will be 60 this year and I can easily see Jerry Lawler being at the right place at the right time of his life to be a galvanizing force for the apparent racially divided Tennessee city of Memphis.

I had some fun on one of my blogs earlier in the week about King NOT running for Mayor. However, after communicating with Jerry, seeing how serious he is about making a difference in his hometown and his desire to help all the people of Memphis, I not only endorse Jerry’s candidacy but am very proud of him for wanting to do such an honorable thing for the people of Memphis. Jerry Lawler is no professional politician (My gosh I’m tired of political pros) and will likely not even raise significant money to fund his own campaign (which might prove to be his downfall). Jerry will also not be controlled by special interest groups. If the people of Memphis feel that they are tired of professional politicos and want objectivity and a fresh approach to improving their city, then why shouldn’t Jerry Lawler be considered as a serious candidate? Unfortunately, the person who spends the most money on TV/Radio ads will likely get elected which seems to be the norm in today’s political world and that’s a damn shame.

For Monday Night Raw fans, if Lawler wins the Memphis Mayoral race he will have to come off Monday Night Raw which would certainly end an amazing era that started 15 years ago. Jerry and I had approximately 12 great years together sitting at ringside every Monday night during the hottest period ever in WWE but as in all phases of our lives things change.

Cena/Steroid Debate

Tuesday, November 13th, 2007

CenaSteroids.jpgThere’s some crazy things being said in the media right now about John Cena and steroids. Cena had an interview recently with CNN and was asked about steroid use. He made a comment that went something like this:

“This is a crazy question. And it’s something that — it’s tough to answer just because of the way society is now. The way people conceive things because performance-enhancing drugs have got the spotlight, and it’s a hot thing to talk about. I can’t tell you I haven’t, but you’ll never be able to prove that I have.?

The WWE is saying that this interview has been skewed - THEY say that John Cena began answering a question about whether or not he used steroids by saying, “Absolutely not!”

The WWE believes that CNN should apologize. What do you think?

Hogan to Host New Gladiators?

Saturday, November 10th, 2007

americangladiators.jpg

Want some good news for the weekend? This one’s a few days old, but I just heard about it: Hulk Hogan will be one of the hosts for the new American Gladiators!

Do you remember the show from years ago? It ran from the late eighties to the late nienties and was very popular. I know that I used to love it. I loved watching the “normal people” go against the huge Gladiators.

Hogan will be co-hosting with boxing’s great Laila Ali, who is Muhammad Ali’s daughter. Ali became a boxing champion in her own right and then showed that she could dance when she joined “Dancing with the Stars” last year.

It’ll be interesting to see these two powerhouses co-hosting such an awesome show. Check out the homepage (not much there yet) where you can get tickets to attend the show. The tickets are free and taping starts on November 28th, so if you’re going to be in LA, or know someone who is, get some tickets to see Hogan and Ali hosting a whole new generation of Gladiators!

Chyna Takes Dog Breeder To Court

Thursday, November 8th, 2007

chynadogs.jpg

Apparently Chyna is a dog lover! The 9th Wonder of the World attempted to purchase a Chihuahua from a co-op in Pheonix (for the record Chyna: you should’ve bought it from a pound or at least from a breeder that you were allowed to meet) for $4,000. Her dog never arrived, so she took the co-op to Christina’s Court (does anyone have this show? I can’t find it). Christina’s Court found in favor of Chyna, which upset the co-op immensely. According to TMZ, the owner of the co-op said:

“We have sold several other puppies to Chynna [sic] with no problem. Her most recent order was cancelled after our cobreeder wanted more for the puppy once he found out it was going to Chynna. Because we’re a coop, each Breeder has an individual responsibility to provide delivery of their pups. Another problem arose when we found out that one or more of the pups previously shipped to her had died after escaping into the street. As Breeders and animal lovers, we are always concerned about alleged cases of animal negligence or abuse. We agreed to appear with her on Christina’s Court to resolve this issue and believed that Chynna was a friend. That court episode turned out to be an ode to Chynna with video clips and photos from her various ventures shown during the kangaroo courtroom happening. We quickly found out that Christina merely wanted to turn the event into a lovefest for Chynna and had no intention of giving us a fair hearing. I guess she hoped that Chynna would boost her ratings (good luck on that). Judging from her lack of concern for us or the pets involved, the only thing Christina should be judging is Michael Vick dog fighting contests.”

Nick Hogan Booked On Criminal Charges!

Wednesday, November 7th, 2007

hoganbooked.jpg

TMZ is reporting that Nick Hogan is being charged with Reckless Driving
Involving Serious Bodily Injury resulting - he is also being charged with use of a motor vehicle in commission of a felony, being under the age of 21 and operating his car with a breath alcohol level of .02 or higher, and illegal window tint.

The warrant was issued this morning and Nick showed up at the Clearwater Police Dept. to turn himself in a little before 10 EST this morning. Here’s what the official press release said:

Investigators interviewed several witnesses who stated they saw Bollea (Driver 1) and Daniel
Jacobs (Driver 2) racing, before Bollea lost control of the his vehicle and crashed into a tree. The
vehicle came to rest in the median of Court Street, east of South Missouri Ave at 7:31 p.m. on
August 26, 2007. Investigators have determined Bollea was driving in excess of 60 miles per
hour close to or at the time of the crash. The posted speed limit in that area is 40 miles per hour.
The road was also wet due to a recent rain shower.

And what does the Hogan family have to say about this? They’ve responded already - and here is what they say:

“Nick and the entire Hogan Bollea family are saddened that criminal charges have been filed in regards to the tragic single car accident on August 26, 2007.

Nick will meet and answer these charges in the appropriate arena ­ a court of law. The family’s primary focus and concern still remains for the continued recovery of Nick’s longtime friend John Graziano. The Bolleas will also continue to stand by the Graziano family and help them in any way they can.

The tragedy to both families is compounded by the fact that unfortunately John was not wearing his seatbelt. Thankfully, Nick was wearing his.

Because of what happened to John, the entire Bollea family will make it a priority to increase public awareness about the importance of always wearing your seatbelt. There has been much speculation as to the speed and wet road conditions surrounding this accident. Although all the evidence has not been evaluated, preliminary reports from the experts indicate that this was not, in fact, a high-speed accident. Because Nick is still a juvenile and has no prior criminal record, we are disappointed that he is being charged as an adult offender. However, we are confident that the evidence will demonstrate that this was an accident.

We ask all who follow these events to keep an open mind as to the facts until they have been ultimately determined. Finally, we thank all who have prayed for John’s recovery and ask for your continued support and prayers.”

Did this phrase stand out ot you? “The tragedy to both families is compounded by the fact that unfortunately John was not wearing his seatbelt. Thankfully, Nick was wearing his.”

So - um - now they’re blaming John on the accident because he wasn’t wearing his seat belt? And just WHO was driving the vehicle? WHO had alcohol in their blood? Blaming the accident on a man who will likely never regain his life? Now THAT’S sad.

Rock Moore?

Tuesday, November 6th, 2007

moorerock.jpg

Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson is starring with Mandy Moore in the new movie, Southland Tales. The Rock plays Moore’s husband in this star-studded tale. Apparently, however, The Rock also has a bit of a crush on the young Ms. Moore.

“Mandy is drop dead gorgeous! She is beautiful and sweet and tall! My kind of woman! I can’t say enough great things about her.?

Dwayne and his wife, Dany, divorced recently after a number of years of wedded bliss. It looks as though Dwayne might be thinking about hooking up with a much younger woman! Dwayne was born in 1972 - Mandy was born in 1984.

They’re definitely not Demi and Ashton - they’re WAY better looking.

The Rock On Steroids and Chris Benoit

Saturday, September 1st, 2007

Dwayne Johnson

In an interview on Friday with Fox sports, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson was told about the ten wrestlers that were suspended. He was upset about it, and had some things to say about steroids, the suspensions, and Chris Benoit.

Dwayne has said that he never used Steroids while he was with the WWE. He said that he perferred to work on being the most entertaining, not the biggest, and that more wrestlers should focus on their performance, no performance enhancers. He did admit to using them for a brief time in college, but says that it wasn’t a fulfilling experience.

“I always joke about it because nothing happened. I had no idea what I was doing. I was probably taking Advil or something like it because it seemed like there were no changes.”

Johnson was appraised about the 10 suspensions and had this to say:

“Clearly, there has to be an aggressive educational program put in place,” Johnson said. “These guys have to be armed with the knowledge and understanding of how bad these drugs are and the dangers of mixing these drugs with the lifestyles they lead.”

When it comes to Chris Benoit’s strange and violent actions, Dwayne was confused.

“I was blown away,” Johnson said. “I had a chance to work with Chris on many occasions. He was a great guy and I knew his wife very well. The guy I knew wasn’t the guy who committed these heinous crimes. I’ve stopped trying to figure it out because Chris had wiring that allowed him to do that where anybody who was sane couldn’t fathom doing that.”
