Jerry "The King" Lawler has defeated the biggest names in the business including Hulk Hogan, Ric Flair, Randy Savage and Harley Race. While he may be familiar to younger audiences as a color commentator for World Wrestling Entertainment, Lawler has been on top of the wrestling world as a contender as well. Lawler made his pro debut in 1970, and later became a huge star. His most famous feud was with "Taxi" star Andy Kaufman. They squared off in the ring for the first time on April 5, 1982. Jerry Lawler also starred in a movie based on Kaufman's life entitled Man on the Moon, along side comedian Jim Carrey and fellow color commentator Jim Ross. Unable to stay away from wrestling, Jerry "The King" Lawler calls the action from ringside, only occasionally donning the tights.
