On the latest edition of “The Jerry Lawler Show”, Jerry spoke about this week’s episode of Monday Night RAW. Specifically, Jerry spoke about the segment where Ric Flair announced Drew McIntyre as the final member of his team at WWE Crown Jewel.
There was some speculation from fans that Flair may have been drunk during this segment. Jerry shot that idea down.
Here is what he said (h/t to WrestlingNews.co for the quotes below):
“I can assure you. I can tell you for a fact that Ric and I dressed in the same dressing room in Cleveland and we talked for hours.”
“I can assure you, I was with him for hours leading up to right before we went out on the air and he was perfectly fine. People were saying that Ric Flair was drunk or something like that. That was not the case. I think he was just so fired up and maybe because I don’t think that was an interview that was written for him. I think that they just let him go off on his own and he was probably so excited doing an interview like that…”
