"It's more fun to work Smackdown" - Jerry Lawler

[Stopspot]

Moving from RAW to SmackDown:

"It kind of rejuvenated me. It's fun to work with guys that you can tell are a little intimidated by you. You don't want to play that trump card very often, but you know it's always there. Byron is very talented. So is Tom Phillips, and they are a lot of fun to work with. SmackDown to me, and I'm not casting anything against Raw, but maybe it's a little more fun. Maybe it's because there is a little less pressure in the fact we tape the show and it's an hour shorter than Raw.

"I mean Raw is like a runaway train sometimes, which is fun to watch. It's not always fun to be a part of the broadcast because it's high-pressure show, producing a three-hour live show every week. SmackDown has been a lot of fun. More moves are in the future. They are moving to USA Network next year. That is going to be huge with Raw and SmackDown on the same network."

Lawler also talked about his new DVD, wrestling John Cena in OVW, wrestling following his cancer scare, getting his commentating gig with WWE and more. You can check out the full interview by clicking here.

Good. Stay there King.

 

[Prince Bálor]

These 3 would make an awesome and entertaining SD broadcast team.

 

[C.M. Shaddix]

I'd work on Smackdown over Raw if it meant one hour less and mistakes can be edited out for USA broadcasting of the show

 

[Farooq]

Eh good for him I guess.

 

[Dolph'sZiggler]

more fun to work smackdown... than Raw? Anything has to be more fun to Lawler than Raw. He sounds like a kid at the dentist's office trying to sit through that shit show every week.

Glad he's enjoying it, he can stay there. Since I don't watch Smackdown, it's lovely not having to listen to him every single week.
