– On the most recent episode of his podcast, Jerry Lawler spoke about what it would take for him to return full time and more. Here are the highlights…

On Working Christmas: “I would never wrestle on Christmas. That’s almost sacrilegious to me. I wouldn’t do it.”

On a Fan Having a Tattoo of Vince McMahon on His Ass: “He says, ‘I have Vince McMahon tattooed on my ass.’ I go, ‘Well, show me!’ This guy is in line in front of a bunch of people and he drops his pants. And right there on this guy’s left cheek of his butt is a big tattoo of Vince McMahon. So I texted the picture to Vince, and the response I got from Vince was, ‘OMG’.” You can see the tattoo here.

Has WWE Contacted Him About a Full Time Return?: “I was more than happy to come back to fill in for Booker T on Raw when the hurricane kept him from being able to be at the show. But if they were to call me and ask me to come back on a full-time basis, it would be a really, really tough decision to make. If they said I was going to make the same money as I did before, that would go a long way in making me consider going back again.”

On Sasha Banks’ Recent Comments on Overzealous Fans: “You can’t be offended or get mad at them when you accomplished what you set out to do, and that’s be famous. So I think Sasha Banks needs to step back and think about what Bubba Ray Dudley says, because they will be a day when nobody is waiting for an autograph, and you’ll wish you were back in the way it is now. But you gotta stop and for just a minute and explain that you will try to come back later or you’ll trying to eat your pizza while it’s hot. You can’t just ignore them. If you take a little time and be nice to those fans, that usually works out for the best. There are stalkers out there, people who can be dangerous out there. I’m looking at it from my own, male perspective. But Sasha is looking at it from her perspective. I understand both points of view though.”
