The Scoop

Posted: Sep 25th 2012 By: mikeiles

NEWS
Jerry ?The King? Lawler, returned to Memphis, TN last Monday after spending a whole week in a Montreal hospital following a heart attack. He held a press conference on Wednesday in his home which was streamed live by several news outlets in Memphis. Lawler noted that he only remembers the first part of the show, the interview segment between CM Punk and Bret Hart, and nothing else that followed it even though his heart attack didn?t happen for an hour later. Lawler said he has no recollection of wrestling or even the things he said during the broadcast and he had to watch the show to find out what happened. The King also said that he received calls from tons of wrestlers including from Ric Flair and Hulk Hogan. Lawler said that there?s a bond between wrestlers and at the end of the day they all look out for each other. Regarding his health, Lawler said apart from sore ribs and throat ? from CPR and tubes inserted respectively ? he?s doing fine with no pains since the attack. He said the heart attack occurred due to two small blocked arteries at the bottom of his heart, one of which needed a stent. He credited the WWE medical team and EMTs on site for saving his life and their quick action prevented permanent damage. When talking about his wrestling future, the WWE Hall of Famer said that he thinks about it but it will be several months before he will step back in the ring.

Jerry "The King" Lawler is back in Memphis, TN after Vince McMahon personally escorted Lawler and his family with the WWE corporate jet from Montreal, Quebec Canada. The WWE Hall of Famer was greeted by Dr. Michael Sampson who last week on RAW pretty much was credited for saving Jerry Lawler's life by administering CPR immediately as he realized Lawler was having a heart attack. The quick response from Dr. Sampson helped in bringing Lawler back to life backstage after seven defibrillator shocks and his immediate CPR helped in keeping Jerry from suffering from brain damage. There is no time table on when he will be returning for broadcast duties as he was ordered to take it easy for now.

Jerry Lawler had a press conference last week and here are some of the highlights:
1. He said his ribs were sore from the CPR and his throat was sore from all the tubes, but hasn't had any other problems since returning home.
2. He described the heart problems as two small arteries at the bottom of his heard being clogged. He said once was given a stent and the other was cleaned up via the angioplasty. He said he was told that his heart will be back to normal. He said he had no permanent damage and the hospital in Montreal was one of the best heart hospitals in the world.
3. He was told he needed to change his diet and exercise more.
4. On wrestling again, he said it would be months before he can even consider it but he didn't think it would be that dangerous to return.
5. He noted that his father died at 59 of a heat attack and his brother has also had heart problems, so he believes the issues were hereditary.
6. He said the mayor of Memphis sent him a get well note and talked about the outpouring form people all over the world.

Lawler also said his chest hurt him for about five minute when he was in Aruba two days before his heart attack, but he thought it was just from bad food. He said he felt fine during the day on Monday, but he didn't remember his match, or anything after his match. He said he watched parts of the show and remembered none of it. He said he remembered Bret Hart and C.M. Punk in the ring in the first segment and the next thing he woke up in a hospital room.

Beth Phoenix has given notice and will be leaving WWE shortly. Phoenix will be leaving WWE next month. PWInsider reports that she has handed her notice to the company and will finish all remaining dates between now and leaving. According to PWInsider, sources in WWE weren't surprised to see Phoenix give notice as she seemed to be "going through the motions" over the last year. Phoenix has been spending time with her boyfriend Edge at his home in North Carolina. If she decides to wrestle outside of WWE then she would be able to use the Beth Phoenix ring name because she used it before joining WWE. According to the Wrestling Observer, Phoenix had considered leaving the company for some time with the idea of pursuing an acting career. The former diva champion will be gone from WWE once her contract expires at the end of the month.
