Earlier this morning Jerry “The King” Lawler and his fiancee Lauryn McBride were both arrested on charges of domestic violence. Jerry has since spoken out about the allegations saying that any claims that he hit his fiancee are false.
Jerry’s longtime broadcast partner Jim Ross commented on Lawler’s arrest and noted that Jerry doesn’t drink and he’s never seen him act aggressively toward a female or anyone else. You can read an excerpt from his blog below.
“Shocked to hear of my friend Jerry Lawler’s arrest in Memphis late Thursday night on a domestic battery charge. King’s fiancé was also jailed on the same charge. Allegedly alcohol was a contributing factor in this matter that resulted in Jerry being suspended indefinitely from WWE as WWE has a zero tolerance policy as it relates to domestic violence issues.
For the record, Jerry doesn’t drink whatsoever nor have I ever seen him act aggressively toward any female or anyone else for that matter. I have not spoken to Jerry recently and hope that this unfortunate matter can be resolved quickly and efficiently.”
