Jerry Lawler charged with assault charges

from Brian Tramel of www.rasslinriotonline.com:

 

----Charges were officially filed this morning against Jerry Lawler. Lawler was charged with assault charges stemming from the incident at Sam’s Town last Friday night. Jerry Lawler allegedly punched “The Big Cheese” Sal Corrente more than once and then yelled at me, “You stupid m*ther f*cker, don't you ever hit a fan.” Lawler had believed that Sal, who had been hit by a fan, had retaliated and hit the fan back. Eyewitnesses at the show believe that Sal did not hit the fan, but there was no doubt in anyone’s mind that Lawler did hit Sal.----This could be a landmark case in this crazy world of professional wrestling. A business that is suppose to be worked to the mark so he believes it is real, but when it is real then it is considered assault. Jerry Lawler, who is the

color commentator for the number one cable wrestling show in the country [and sometimes #1 cable show in the country], will face criminal charges in the state of Mississippi.----The court date is scheduled for August 1, 2007, but only if papers are served to Lawler before that date. Lawler is scheduled to wrestle on the July 20, 2007 Sam’s Town Memphis Wrestling show and Mississippi authorities are expected to serve Lawler the papers that night.

 

I can't help but wonder if it is a work...

It's true. PWInsider mentioned it earlier today.

I don't want to go anywhere near PWI. One of the worst sites ever when it comes to ads.

If you turn your javascripts off, you can avoid all those annoying pop ups. If you use internet explorer (again with the javascript turned off). if you just press the stop button again, the gifs/adds will stop flashing. (can't do this with firefox unfortunately).

 

If i was not able to turn the javascript off to avoid the popups or stop the animations, I certainly would not bother with going there. Personally I ALWAYS leave javascript turned off, unless its necessary to have them on, as its too big of a security risk.

I heard he was charged with assault charges where they charged him by pressing charges for assault.
