Hennig is just blasting unmercifully on
that eye, and a referee keeps checking him,
but Lawler stops Fargo from giving the match.
And Lawler with a right hand puts Hennig down.
He's a long way from through.
This guy with his amazing ability to come back, the King,
Jerry Lawler shoots him on a catapult into the turnbuckle.
>> [NOISE] >> Hennig is down,
the crowd wants Lawler to come over and cover up.
He covers. One, two, he got it,
a new world heavyweight champion!
Jerry Lawler, in 24 27.
>> Incredible. A new world heavyweight champion.
The king, Jerry Lawler has just beaten Curt Hennig.
[APPLAUSE] >> You wanna
talk about loyalty.
I'm about to introduce a gentleman who epitomizes the word royalty!
At this time it is my pleasure to introduce the king himself,
Jerry, The King Lawler!
>> Well, my goodness Mr. Lawler what brings you to the WWF?
>> First of all, let me thank my good friend Bobby Heenan for that introduction.
He's been a loyal subject of mine for years.
>> Yes, I have.
>> And let me tell you, you don't have to refer to me as Mr Lawler.
King will suffice nicely.
You wanna know what I'm doing here in the WWF?
Well, I'll tell you.
All of this talk about royalty, the Royal Rumble,
it's only natural that the true royalty of wrestling should appear on the scene.
Jack Tunney, asked me, let me correct myself.
Jack Tunney got down on his knees and begged me to come here to the WWF and
share my insights with you about wrestling.
To share my kingly knowledge with these peasants about wrestling, and
to view the competition.
And so far I've seen that I stand head and shoulders above all the rest.
They've seen the rest.
Now they can see the best, the true king of wrestling.
>> [APPLAUSE] >> Wait a minute.
Jerry Lawler, what in God's name are you doing here, King Lawler?
>> I'll tell you what I'm doing here.
I'm here to confront the pretender to my throne.
I'm here to tell this impostor and all of the rest of you idiots that there is only
one King in the World Wrestling Federation, and I am that King.
Do you understand that?
Now, out of the goodness of my royal heart, I might allow you to be a Prince.
Yes, that's right, if you right now in front of all of these people and
in front of all of these idiots get down on your hands and knees,
bow to the real King and kiss my feet, do you understand that?
>> [NOISE] >> Wow, but then you've got a lot of nerve
for a guy to come out here, and you didn't even have the guts or
the integrity to even get in the tournament for the King of the Ring.
>> No, that's not true!
>> Where were you when this thing started?
I tell you what I think.
The only kinda king you are is the Burger King.
>> No. >> Exactly, yeah.
>> Burger King!
>> Stop it, Savage!
>> Burger King!
>> My gosh, what a cheap shot!
A sucker punch from behind with that septor!
Jerry, The King, Lawler is ruining Bret Hart's moment!
He's destroyed the crown.
What a dastardly attack!
What a heinous attack!
This is sickening!
This is uncalled for!
God!
>> Wait a minute.
Jerry, the King, did you see that?
Jerry Lawler wants you to come in.
>> Come on.
No, not this way no.
[MUSIC]
What a despicable individual.
>> And Dink, ladies and gentlemen, eliminated.
And hey, did you see another pair of legs there?
>> I certainly did.
>> Here are your winners.
>> Wait a minute.
>> The Royal family.
>> Jerry Lawler upset asking for the ring mic.
>> What is this?
>> Hold it stop the music right there.
Hold it just a second.
Hey, I don’t know what you little morons are doing with your hands in the air,
I’m the one that won the match.
I made winners out of you three losers.
You get you’re hands down and get over in the corner.
As a matter of fact, you need to bow down and kiss my Royal feet and thank me for
winning that match.
Get in the corner over there.
Get over there.
>> I hope they don’t do that.
>> I hope not. >> Okay, start the music.
[MUSIC]
Don't touch the microphone, this is my king's court.
And you may be a big shot in Hollywood, you understand that?
But on my king's court, you do what I say, you listen when I speak.
>> Yeah. >> And that's all we need out of you.
You understand?
Or I'll tell the people the truth about- >> [APPLAUSE]
>> Well, wait a minute now.
>> Now listen, this may be the home of the Whopper.
>> [LAUGH] >> [NOISE]
>> But don't touch me.
When you hit me, you're in trouble.
>> [APPLAUSE] >> You don't touch this microphone again.
Do you understand me?
And I will touch you, big shot because, you see,
>> My goodness.
>> [APPLAUSE] >> Hey [APPLAUSE]
>> The King's not
one of those stunt doubles from Star Trek.
>> I know these idiots look like they're from another planet, but
there ain't nobody with pointy ears that's gonna come out here and save you from-
>> These are not idiots,
this is our audience.
These are the people that watch Tech War.
>> [APPLAUSE] >> Hey, I'll tell you one thing right now.
>> I'll touch you whenever I want to, and if you're not careful,
I will boldly send you where no man's ever been courtesy of my fist!
>> Hey, wait a minute, look at that.
>> [NOISE] >> My goodness, did you see that,
how quickly Shatner went behind Lawler?
>> Big mistake, Shatner.
Stand right there.
>> Get him, King! >> I've got a little surprise for
you, joy boy.
>> Hey, wait a minute, what's this now?
>> Watch this, McMahon!
>> [APPLAUSE].
>> Come on in the ring Nick.
Come on in the ring
Nick.come get a closer look.
[NOISE] >> David took out.
[SOUND].
>> One, two, three.
[MUSIC]
>> Jerry, the King, Lawler.
>> Let me introduce you Mr. Heyman, to your replacement.
Come on down, Jerry, The King, Lawler.
[MUSIC]
>> There is a God.
[MUSIC]
The King is back.
All is right with the world, at least at the announce table.
Thank God.
[MUSIC]
And a standing ovation, and deservedly so
for Jerry, the King, Lawler.
[MUSIC]
>> Right hand after right hand, Cena somehow managing to survive.
And now Jerry Lawler.
>> John's out.
Cena's eliminated and it's down to Lawler and Sheamus.
>> King, fuck flying King.
He's out.
>> Sheamus with a bow kick.
>> Sheamus is out!
>> Cena helped him!
You got to be kidding me.
[MUSIC]
This is a travesty.
>> Cheering to the king, the Lawler.
>> King can't believe he did this.
I can't either.
Nobody here, Jack.
What did Lawler say earlier tonight?
It's been like 18 years he's been here and he's never been in WrestleMania.
>> Jerry Lawler, you're a loser.
JR, you're an even bigger loser.
All you idiots are all losers.
Because no matter what you do to me, Jerry.
No matter what you did in that ring, I never did
and I never will kiss your foot!
>> [APPLAUSE] >> No way!
It is not gonna happen-
[MUSIC]
>> It's the Hitman.
It's Bret Hart. >> It's deja vu.
>> [MUSIC]
[MUSIC]
>> The Key Arena in Seattle has erupted.
[MUSIC]
>> [LAUGH]
>> Now Cole's not talking his
way out of this one.
[MUSIC]
