December 27, 201014 yr Author comment_5461114 Pretty famous segment from Warrior's comeback. Warrior wears a baseball cap for the first time in his life and Lawler presents him with an INCREDIBLE drawing of himself. Warrior isn't very gracious about the gift, so Lawler breaks it over his head. I also have to mention the awesomely cheesy King of the Ring video before this match starts with Lawler in hell being beat up by Elvis.
February 22, 201114 yr comment_5465827 Is that Vince as the devil in the King of the Ring commercial? That was just awesome. I remember Lawler talking about this angle in his book. Warrior with the hat is funny.
February 10, 201510 yr comment_5653736 Fun commercial with Jerry Lawler being tormented in Hell by Elvis, Kong, Don, and various other Kings. Vince is in the ring with Lawler, thus giving us a rare WWF interview segment where we're spared anyone talking over it. Lawler, in the spirit of peace after costing Warrior a KOTR berth, offers a comic book-inspired portrait of the Warrior. Well done, Jerry. Warrior rebuts, and I'll grudgingly credit him for updating his manner of speaking 6 years after his peak, giving a bit of lip service to the mystical hoohah but concentrating mostly on talking about kicking ass. Lawler shatters the glass portrait on his head but Warrior no-sells.
March 11, 201510 yr comment_5658044 Lawler is excellent here, and really carries the whole thing (including in the funny KotR vignette). Warrior with a cap really doesn't work, he really looks like he's only out there to shill his merchandising. I wonder why Warrior was paired with Lawler too, it's like he never really got thrown back into the mix. Lawler should have been given more angles and interview time back in those days.
April 4, 201510 yr comment_5663340 This feud is ok but I couldn't help but feel that the stuff on WCW felt so much more exciting and cutting edge compared to this. Warrior vs. Lawler at this point didn't seem like a feud that many were clamoring for. KOTR being King's PPV at times was also an odd choice.
November 5, 20177 yr comment_5818841 Warrior still gets a huge pop. Fun segment, though Warrior looks totally ridiculous with that hat.
January 1Jan 1 comment_6026776 Lawler's drawing is great. Warrior's con artist lien is..actually pretty great. I kind of thought Warrior would take the picture and bust it over Lawler's head at first, so I guess I was half right?
