Jerry "The King" Lawler On If This Year's WrestleMania Was The Greatest, His Announcing, His DVD

Jerry "The King" Lawler appeared on The Chad Dukes Wrestling Show today to promote his upcoming DVD to be released by WWE. In addition to that, he also spoke about his unique commentary style, as well as this year's WrestleMania. Here are the highlights:

His announcing:

"What I like to try to do is put myself in the position of 'I've got the best seat in the house watching a wrestling show with a good friend of mine, and just saying whatever comes into my mind as I'm watching. That's the way I've always approached my color commentary, as a wrestling fan, not as a wrestler."

His new DVD:

"One of the cool things I'm really happy about (is) the 6 hours of matches consists of a lot of our old Memphis footage. Some of the matches that were big down here in Memphis, when there was no nationwide TV or satellite TV or cable TV, only the people in the Mid-South got exposed to our matches. This is going to be the first opportunity for a lot of people to see some great Memphis wrestling that they may have heard about over the years."

Wrestlemania always topping itself:

"I'm going be perfectly honest with you, every year that we do WrestleMania, I ask myself when it's over, 'Gosh how are they going to top that?' and somehow every year they do. Going into this year's WrestleMania, on paper I was just thinking 'This may not be the greatest WrestleMania I've ever seen. It's gonna be good but just maybe not great.' I'm gonna tell you it turned out to surpass expectations in my mind. To me it was the best WrestleMania that I can remember."

Lawler goes on to talk about working on WWE 2K16 with Jim Ross, his career, Memphis and other topics. You can listen to the full podcast at this link.
