30th Anniversary of Jerry Lawler Slapping Andy Kaufman on the David Letterman Show

Graphic Language Warning: The following YouTube Video of Lawler slapping Kaufman on the Letterman show contains language that many would find offensive. You’ve been warned so enjoy old school Lawler!

Wow, is about the only way I know how to open this with. Wow, to what happened, Wow, to it being 30 years ago and finally Wow, to the fact that after all these years and as much wrestling as I have watched and read about – I still don’t know if this was a work or not.

I will watch things and I will think – this has to be a story line no doubt about it. Then I will watch more and I think man there is legit hatred and realness to this crazy stuff. Maybe it’s the real deal.

One thing we are sure of, we will not get any more of the story from Andy Kaufman, since he died a couple of years later in 1984. You can look up on any web browser and find lots of stories about whether it was real or fake, but if you are like me, you will just enjoy some of the very first Sports Entertainment and realize what a genius Lawler has been for all these year.

We would love to see your comments on this here at DTRT Wrestling News.com .
