Jerry Lawler says he’s feeling “6 or 7” out of 10 and isn’t ruling out a return to the wrestling ring
WWE Hall of Famer Jerry Lawler did an interview with Action News 5 and here are the highlights…
His health: “Oh gosh, I get that question 50 times a day. I like to say something I saw on the news recently — people say 6 or 7. [So when you say 6 or 7, you mean on the scale of one to 10, how you doing — about 6 or 7?] Yes, exactly. I’ll get up to 7, then go back to 6.”
Suffering strokes: “You can’t know when they’re going to have them. And is this, boom — you have it? I was in Florida by myself and woke one morning and everything was messed up. And I called Lauren [his former girlfriend] to come down from Memphis and to get me in the hospital and everything down there.”
How the strokes affected him: “Colorblind, I can’t see the colors.”
Potentially having one more match: “I have not put it out of my mind — one more match in there somewhere.”
Being religious: “I remember getting baptized. But I feel like all my life I’ve been taken care of. I’m taken care of by Jesus, so I don’t worry about dying or anything like that. I feel like I’ll go to Heaven.”
