The Latest Health Update On Jerry Lawler

WWE Hall of Famer Jerry “The King” Lawler suffered a stroke earlier this year in February, rendering him hospitalized. He had returned home a few weeks thereafter.

Speaking on Sportskeeda Wrestling’s ‘The Wrestling Time Machine’ podcast, Bill Apter provided an update on Jerry Lawler’s health, revealing that while he is still struggling, he’s doing significantly better than a few weeks ago. Apter shared,

“He is recovering. What Dutch [Manel] said was true. His spirits were great. Jerry and I are huge horror movie fans and every time I’m on the phone with him, I’ve got to do this imitation of this lady of the old Invisible Man movie…I have to do that every time I call [Lawler]. So the first few weeks after he had his stroke, there was no recognition of that. Today he laughed. He said ‘Hello Bill’ and he asked me if I saw the Renfield movie yet. So we discussed horror movies and he mentioned that he saw Raw this past Monday night and that Logan Paul mentioned him on Monday Night Raw and he was thrilled to hear that. He did have a problem remembering parts of that segment like when he mentioned Lebron James, he couldn’t mention that name. It was hard for him to finish the sentences but he’s much better than when I talked to him about three weeks ago.”

We here at eWn would like to keep sending our best to ‘The King’ throughout his recovery.
