American color commentator and professional wrestler known as “The King.” He is currently signed to WWE, although he has not performed as a full-time commentator since April 2020.
Prior to joining WWE in 1992 (then known as the World Wrestling Federation), he wrestled in numerous territories, winning many championships, including multiple World Heavyweight Championships, throughout his career. Lawler is a one-time AWA World Heavyweight Champion and a three-time WCWA World Heavyweight Champion: he unified the titles by defeating Kerry Von Erich at Superclash III, forming the USWA Unified World Heavyweight Championship, a championship which he held 28 times. He is also known for his feud with comedian Andy Kaufman and he portrayed himself in the 1999 film Man on the Moon.
Lawler has held more recognized championships than any professional wrestler in history though he has never won any championships in WWE having wrestled sporadically whilst primarily providing color commentary, since joining the company. In 2007, Lawler was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame.
Lawler has been married three times and had two sons with his first wife, Kay. His son Brian, who wrestled in WWF/E under the names “Brian Christopher” and “Grandmaster Sexay,” died by suicide on 29 July 2018. His other son, Kevin, has been in professional wrestling as both a referee and wrestler under the names “Kevin Christian” and “Freddie Gilbert,” the latter of which was used during a stint as the “brother” of Eddie Gilbert.
