I'm Jerry Lawler in an online fantasy wrestling league.

I'm Plowboy Fraizer.

Online.
Fantasy.
Wrestling.
League.

Any Memphis wrestling fan has to watch the documentary Memphis Heat.

Wasn't Kamala from Hernando MS or somewhere around here? For three years I met two buddies at the bar at Friday's in the Square at noon every Monday. Then on to the Coliseum. It was like we had season tickets. The lady behind the window set aside our same seats every week. Third row ringside across from the bell on the aisle. How we got home every night is a miracle.

I've watched it twice. The bonus feature about the Galento incident is interesting too.

Senatobia/Coldwater area. I used to see him regularly driving a dump truck in the Hernando area within the last 7 or 8 years.

I like the Lawler knocks out Miss Texas clip.

Neat article

Millican grew up in the 1970s in the Memphis area where two kings reigned: Elvis Presley and pro-wrestler Jerry 'The King' Lawler. Lawler earned his moniker by dominating the Memphis wrestling scene and gained notoriety for his series of matches with comedian Andy Kaufman.

"If you grew up in the Memphis area, you better have a Jerry "The King" Lawler t-shirt in your closet because otherwise you could get fined in that state," Millican said.

I'm a championship belt collector and enthusiast. Dave Millican is like the 2nd best belt maker ever. I also have a "Lawler for Mayor" shirt from 2000.

Saturday morning raslin used to get close to a 50 share in the Memphis market so even the blue bloods had to be watching. There are two types of people in Memphis those who admit to watching raslin on TV and those who lie.

I heard that line to describe a different activity.

Kamala was indeed from Uganda.

I atually remember both Lance Russell and Dave Brown confirming that fact.
