No huracanranas, backflips, springboards outside, suicide dives, or handstands but damn if this didn't look & feel like a real fight.

Thanks! This is 20 February 1983, though, shortly before Idol's face turn. Then they were partners until the big feud of '87.

Nice over-the-top-rope bump by Lawler at 5:28.

I don't believe I've seen three moves besides a punch, wrestle darn it

Wrestling doesn't draw money. Personal issues and fights do draw money.

Yes sir,Bill Dundee could go move for move with Billy Robinson and Tony Charles,but he and Lawler fighting and punching and kicking broke box office records.

Jerry lawler scrapping son of a gun.

Two dirty guys getting mean and nasty. Call in Dick Murdoch and The Stomper to stop the trouble. They work well.

[@jameschilders7423]

I can only take so much punching

Idol would have been a great champion, but wrestling was never his number 1 priority.

[@MitchellShelby]

What was his first priority?
