Tom Savini Blames Jerry Lawler for Andy Kaufman’s Death

Rating: 0.0/10 (0 votes cast)

I’ve always said that pro wrestling fans (which we cover now) was a whole lot like horror fans. Both are very passionate about what they love, and more times than not they both intertwine. So it was pretty cool to run across this video today of when makeup and effects genius, Tom Savini decided to travel down to Memphis Tennessee to confront wrestling legend Jerry “The King” Lawler. One part of this forgotten story can be found in the video below.

Tom Savini blames Jerry Lawler for Andy Kaufman’s death and promises to pay Lawler back for what he did for more episodes of Memphis Championship Wrestling go over to http://www.kingjerrylawler.com/main.html

Now wasn’t that something? I have no idea how that played out or that Tom was even a wrestling fan, but more proof of that can be found HERE. I must say I’d love to find just how well that played out.
