Jerry Lawler is out of the ICU.

Lawler is expected to be discharged from the hospital tomorrow and will return to his Florida residence for outpatient treatment. His social media accounts posted an update regarding the Hall of Famer's condition on Thursday afternoon.

The post included an image with the caption:

Update on @realJerryLawler: He has been moved from ICU & as of now being discharged tomorrow to return to his Florida home for outpatient rehab for his limited speech and cognitive skills. Doctors hopeful for full recovery and Jerry is looking forward to returning to his fans very soon.

The 73-year-old Lawler suffered a massive stroke on Monday but is expected to make a full recovery. He was discovered in the driveway of his Fort Myers home and rushed to the hospital.

His longtime commentary partner, Jim Ross, posted to social media on Tuesday evening that he had spoken with Lawler and while he was "obviously weak," Ross was still able to understand him despite his limited speech.
