Jerry Lawler doesn’t think WWE will fire JBL after bullying allegations

On the latest episode of his podcast, Dinner With The King, WWE Hall Of Famer Jerry ‘The King’ Lawler and his co-host Glenn Moore discussed the current issue with SmackDown Live commentator Mauro Ranallo leaving the company reportedly due to issues with fellow commentator JBL:

 


 

“I’m a JBL fan,” Lawler stated. “Here’s the thing about JBL; you have to know the guy. And if you don’t get an opportunity to really know JBL, you can be offended. JBL is a funny guy. He’s a big guy. He’s boisterous. He comes across as, sometimes, crude and loud. But you gotta know him. That’s just JBL. He’s the same guy on commentary as he is in catering.”

Lawler also stated that he doesn’t think this will cost JBL his job with the WWE:

“I don’t [think so], but hey, that’s my opinion,” Lawler said. “I don’t think he will, not over something like this.”
