Jerry Lawler is hailed as one of sports-entertainment's most
enduring and colorful characters. His life has been filled with
hilarious, never-been-told stories...until now! His reign consists
of thirteen championships (one of which he's held more than "forty"
times), three marriages, and two children. He's dominated Memphis
radio and television airwaves. Starred in feature films. Recorded
albums. Tolerated countless sprains, broken bones, concussions, and
contusions. The way Jerry "The King" Lawler tells it, if you're
good at something, do it more than "once."
"It's Good To Be The King...Sometimes" is a no-holds-barred
personal account from the "puppies"-pantin' King of one-liners, who
steps out from behind the announcer's desk of "WWE Raw" to hold
court about "everything." His passion for art that first drew him
to the ring of a rundown West Memphis movie theater over thirty
years ago. The comic adventures and tragic bumps endured journeying
down the "Music Highway" of Interstate 40 with the National
Wrestling Alliance. Earning his royal personage in the Bluff City
of the Mighty Mississippi against his own mentor, "Fabulous" Jackie
Fargo. Grappling with mat legends Ric Flair, Lou Thesz, Jesse
Ventura, Andre the Giant, Terry Funk, and Bret "Hitman" Hart. And
his crowning achievements as co-ruler of the United States
Wrestling Association, which contributed to the rise of future WWE
Superstars Hulk Hogan, Undertaker, Stone Cold Steve Austin, and The
Rock.
It's time you lackeys pay heed as the King reveals the schemes
and outrageous storylines to many of wrestling's most fantastic
theatrics and all-too-real moments. Lawler tells of his legendary
"feud" with Andy Kaufman, and his much-publicized confrontation
with the actor portraying the late comedian on the set of "Man on
the Moon, " and the "Karate-versus-Wrestling" match that almost
occurred between Lawler and Memphis's "other" King. And be sure to
honor his royal proclamations regarding former wives, and his
mother's opinion of wrestling; why he once sued future boss Vince
McMahon...and "won;" and the body part he truly worships on a WWE
Diva.
