Bill Apter of http://www.1wrestling.com recently spoke to Jerry Lawler in regards to the recent charges filed against him. This is Lawler's response:


Regarding the complaint, this has got to be joke! I have not had anything official served to me as yet. I first heard about this from a friend who called that he heard it on TV. He explained that the TV report said that Sal Corrente, who is the Big Cheese on our show, got in touch with Tunica, Mississippi Police filed assault and battery charges, claiming I hit him too hard during a wrestling match! This has got to be a joke. If I got arrested every time I hit a wrestler or manager during a wrestling show, I would be on death row by now! Koko Ware was on the show and he hit him a lot more times than I did. Maybe Koko will now become the official Birdman of Alcatraz! You know Bill, I am just shocked that the authorities, the law enforcement authorities in the great State of Mississippi are so gullible that they are letting themselves get sucked in by this guys obvious publicity stunt. Who ever heard of one wrestler having another arrested after a match at a wrestling show?
