The Kaufman Lawler Feud: Chapter 23 - I'm Going to Knock His Lights Out

November 12, 1983 from Memphis Wrestling. Lance interviews Jimmy Hart and Andy Kaufman (via telephone). Kaufman can't be in a wrestling match but he'll team with the Mouth of the South, as a boxer against Jerry Lawler. Andy vows to knock the King out and Jimmy shows a montage of ways they've outsmarted Lawler. Jerry doesn't take to kindly to all this.

Was this the end because of Kaufman's illness? This is bad end to this feud otherwise. Some handicap match, Kaufman in boxing gloves? That doesn't seem to get the hest two on one should get.

popculturestu,

How can we thank you enough for all these Andy Kaufman segments. Fantastic job. Andy was awesome at alot of things, including being a heel. Boy, did he create alot of heat. All the best to you.

I never knew Kaufman was dying when he did this... that kinda makes me feel sad, when you think about how much they all put into this fued and how great it was!
