– Jim Ross discussed the death of Brian Lawler on the Ross Report, as well as his memory of calling Lawler’s matches. You can hear audio below, plus highlights per Wrestling Inc:
On Brian Lawler being in solitary confinement on a DUI charge: “I never quite understood the reason for that. I understand getting incarcerated for a DUI, or any other crime. I get that. But, in the solitary confinement? Unless you’re gonna say that it was for his own protection, I don’t know.”
On Brian Lawler’s career: “I loved calling his matches with the King during the Attitude Era, as many as already remarked on social media. Because I always had fun hinting that ‘Grandmaster Sexay’ was the King’s son. Good ole days, right? Good ole days.”
