Cornette has always been super high on Lawler and his place in wrestling history. It's been a while since I have listened to Cornette talk about Lawler, but Cornette has made the case previously that Lawler should be top 10 all time in terms of drawing power based on Memphis. Cornette has talked in the past about Lawler's feud with Andy Kaufman being on the very short list of greatest wrestling angles in the history of the sport, and that David Letterman was not aware of what was going to happen when the pair appeared on his show.
It is unfortunate that an entire generation of fans know Lawler only for his cartoonish WWE work.
