#2 The Fiend wanted to face Jerry Lawler

While Jerry 'The King' Lawler is part of the RAW roster as an announcer, he is still on WWE's 'no-touch' list - which means that he cannot have a match or be involved in any physicality. However, that doesn't stop the 72-year old to have matches outside of WWE even at this age.

Speaking on his podcast, Lawler revealed that Bray Wyatt had walked up to him and told him that he would like to face him:

“And you know, after we did the little thing a while back on Monday Night Raw (August 2019), before I was back doing commentary. I just came on for a guest appearance. Bray Wyatt came to me afterwards and he said ‘King I would love to work with you down in Memphis.'”

I would love to have a have a match with Bray Wyatt or The Fiend either way.” (H/T SeScoops)

Even though Lawler is supposed to be far away from any physical action, Bray Wyatt had attacked the WWE Hall of Famer last year. It is highly doubtful that we could ever see a match between these two competitors, but that doesn't mean we can't hope for it to happen!
