Loss Posted November 9, 2012 Author Report Posted November 9, 2012 This segment proves that it's useless to try to make Lawler a heel in Memphis. They LOVE the insults. Quote
PeteF3 Posted November 11, 2012 Report Posted November 11, 2012 Lawler focuses on an intensely creepy-looking man lurking in the background. Lawler gets louder cheers with every insult he dishes out. Quote
soup23 Posted December 4, 2012 Report Posted December 4, 2012 Watching the crowd pop with the insult on the lady saying boo was a highlight for the set so far. I love these little segments so much. Quote
Kevin Ridge Posted January 18, 2013 Report Posted January 18, 2013 Lawler with some harsh comments for the studio audience. We get a camera close up on a gentlemen who isn’t the most good looking which Lawler can’t help but take a verbal shot at. If that fan watched the show regularly he must have expected this. Quote
Cox Posted January 24, 2013 Report Posted January 24, 2013 I always get a kick out of Jerry Lawler Def Comedy Jam. Quote
garretta Posted December 25, 2014 Report Posted December 25, 2014 The best part is that Dave Brown plays this absolutely straight, selling Lawler's rather lame (sorry, Kingfish) jokes like they're egregious insults against the fine people of Memphis and acting like they're sabotaging the program. I love how he rather peevishly insists that Lawler get in the ring and wrestle like it says on the format sheet. The funny thing is, the jobber, whoever it was, was probably cracking up just out of camera range. Quote
drew wardlaw Posted February 12, 2016 Report Posted February 12, 2016 Lawler with the cruelest attacks yet, insulting a man with some kind of disability. The atmosphere is almost like a slam poetry reading or something where the crowd just eats up all the insults. Awesome as usual. I love when he points out his fans. Quote
GSR Posted December 17, 2016 Report Posted December 17, 2016 Lawler is scheduled for a match, but before he gets in the ring he wants to browse through the audience as he’s seen some sights today. He first fins a couple of men in Jerry ‘The King’ Lawler shirts (one of them is the same chap from several weeks ago) and of course they meet with his approval. A woman starts booing him and he says that someone with a face like hers should boo! He goes to a guy who is not blessed in the looks department and says how everyone has a right to be ugly, but he abuses the system! He then says the only reason that he’s got that bears is because even the razor backed up from that face! You would have thought he’d be a little pissed about being mocked on national TV, but nope, he just laughs at ‘The King’s’ insults of him. The people are practically begging Lawler to pick on them at this point. He spots three girls who are all dressed up and jokes that they’ve all dressed up for the prom. Until he notices that one of them is holding a young baby and says that it’s a little late for the prom for her! The lady tries to say something back, but she seems to have a bit of stage fright and struggles to speak when he puts the microphone in front of her. His parting shot is saying how that when she goes to the beach in a bikini even the tide won’t come in! The crowd are all chanting ‘Jerry, Jerry, Jerry’ by now and you’d have no idea he is supposed to be the lead heel in the promotion! Oh how I’ve missed these segments! Quote
dawho5 Posted February 17, 2017 Report Posted February 17, 2017 Lawler is absolute gold, as he is in all of these. If this is the one with the three teenage girls, I imagine his comments were not what was going through his head. Quote
