jerry lawler WWE Hall of Famer Jerry "The King" Lawler appeared on WREG.com in Memphis this morning, and discussed his health scare on Raw this past Monday night.

Lawler said that he went to lunch with his girlfriend earlier in the day, and that his stomach felt "queasy" before his food arrived. His girlfriend then contacted Lawler's son Brian, aka Grandmaster Sexay of Too Cool, and word eventually spread backstage in WWE that Lawler was feeling nauseas.

While the nausea ended up simply being a stomach flu following tests done at the hospital, Vince McMahon ultimately made the decision to pull Lawler from the Raw broadcast as a precautionary measure. Lawler added that added fan concern began to grow because he didn't appear on Raw, but in the end is was nothing more than a 24 hour stomach virus.
