Common sense Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wa7gGZaOtTw This is the closer for the evening. The tone and look of relief in his eyes says it all for longtime colleague Michael Cole. Cole the character might have been a pest, but pulling through and delivering like he did last night deserves our respect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grapefruits Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 Brian Christopher Lawler Issues Statement On Father's Condition Tuesday Night By Daniel Pena Sep 12, 2012 - 1:19:27 AM WWE Hall of Famer Jerry "The King" Lawler continues to recover in a hospital in Montreal, Canada, after suffering a heart attack during Monday's Raw broadcast. Lawler's family members are with him, including son and former WWE performer Brian Christopher Lawler, who released a statement Tuesday evening concerning his father's condition. Though stable, the concern now is whether he suffered brain damage following the heart attack. His message reads: “Ok, here’s the latest real update. Lauren and I are here at the hospital in Montreal. He does not look good at all. He is responsive to questions that he is asked which is very good. His sedation and breathing support are being lowered slowly right now. He was shocked a total of 7 times at the arena and underwent a balloon stint to open up a clogged artery when he arrived at hospital. Everyone out there needs to say a special prayer for his brain at this point, please. Tests on his brain will not be available until the morning. One of us two will keep all you guys informed as we know more.” Stacy Carter, Lawler's former wife, remains optimistic on "The King." She tweeted late Tuesday night, "Gonna try to get some sleep. Been a long 24 plus hours. I just know there will be some good news about @jerrylawler 's condition tomorrow!!!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikey2Dope Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 The test results for Jerry "The King" Lawler reveal that the Hall of Famer has suffered no brain damage following his heart attack earlier this week. The news was first reported by WMV TV in Memphis. "Memphis TV channel 3 reports @JerryLawler has NO brain damage from his Monday night heart attack," Jim Ross wrote on his Twitter. "Thank God for WWE doctors & EMTS." Great news!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
key2thecup Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 and if you watched that tag match when daniel bryan and kane came out, he clearly sounded like he was in pain. and during the match when you could see glimpses of the announce table, jerry was hunched over the table then you could see him collapse down and thats when cole stopped talking for a couple minutes. that was pretty spooky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grapefruits Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 Great to hear Jerry is doing better and that there is no brain damage. Hopefully no long term permanent damage as it took 15 minutes to get him back apparently. So glad it happened at ringside and not later on when no one was around, it definitely saved his life. Interesting timing for a new attack ad aimed at Linda, gotta wonder if it has anything to do with what happened on Monday. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZPepVtBUECo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grapefruits Posted September 14, 2012 Share Posted September 14, 2012 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- WWE Removing "Attitude Era" Videos Amid Linda McMahon's Senate Campaign By Daniel Pena Sep 14, 2012 - 4:37:31 PM WWE announced late Thursday that it was removing "dated and edgier" footage from its official website and media platforms, a day after co-founder Linda McMahon's political opponent used clips in an attack ad. "To better reflect our current family-friendly brand of entertainment, WWE is removing some dated and edgier footage from digital platforms," said Brian Flinn, WWE's Senior Vice President, Marketing and Communications, in a statement. "Some of this footage has been misused in political environments without any context or explanation as to when it was produced. This damages the corporate reputation of our company. WWE is well within its rights to protect its intellectual property for fair use." Flinn said the footage removal is not related to an ad released Wednesday by Rep. Chris Murphy, a Connecticut Democrat running for Senate against McMahon, which featured WWE footage while slamming her for allegedly off-shoring profits to avoid taxes and failing to provide health coverage for their performers. Rather, it is part of a re-branding effort. While WWE held a PG-14 rating for much of the late 1990s and early 2000s when she was running the organization with her husband, Vince McMahon, its current content is rated PG or G.
