New Champs in WWE! More RIGHT HERE
"He mentioned that he saw RAW this past Monday night and that Logan Paul mentioned him on Monday Night RAW, and he was thrilled to hear that. But he did have a problem remembering parts of that segment, like when he [Paul] mentioned LeBron James, he [Lawler] couldn't mention that name. Yeah, it was hard for him to finish the sentences, but he's much better than when I talked to him about three weeks ago," said Bill Apter. [7:00 - 7:28]

Bill Apter reveals more details about his chat with WWE legend Jerry Lawler
Elsewhere in the chat, Bill Apter revealed that Jerry Lawler seemed much better than before when he spoke to him via phone call.
Apter added that since both are big horror movie fans, Lawler asked if he had watched the recently released monster movie Renfield, starring Nicolas Cage.
"I spoke to Jerry at about 4:30 today. Yeah, and he's recovering... Jerry and I are huge horror movie fans, and every time I get on the phone with him, I've got to do my imitation of this old lady in The Invisible Man. She sees the Invisible Man without the bandages, and she goes crazy and goes,' He's got no face!.' So I have to do that every time I call. The first few weeks after he had a stroke, there was no recognition of that. Today, he laughed, and he said, 'Hello, Bill' and he asked me if I saw the new Renfield movie, and we discussed horror movies," said Bill Apter. [6:17 - 6:58]
Fans are waiting with breath to see Jerry Lawler recover and show up on an episode of RAW or SmackDown, where he's sure to receive a rousing welcome.
