The King is a Cosmos, The King is the Wind

Jerry Lawler v. Terry Funk NEW 10/1/11 - EPIC

Man I should have made it to Poughkeepsie. No reason a match between two 60 year old men should have been this crazy, but man alive it was. We start with Terry getting on the microphone to pray for all the wrestlers who have passed, I have seen Funk do this spot a bunch of times and I just giggle every time he smacks his opponent with the mike. After cracking the King he chucks Lawler to the floor with Jerry just taking a nutty bump, he also gets posted and smashed into the guard rail and a table. This is less then a week after Lawler got smashed through an ungimmicked table by Henry and also 62 years after his birth and he is just dying. Funk takes some goofy bumps too, including a bunch of chair shots. Both guys unload their epic punches, Funk wanders around with a chair on his head, screams about his eye and rips the pants off Ref Hansen. No strap drop, no piledrivers, but a wild out of control spectacle of a brawl, and you couldn't ask for much more.

COMPLETE AND ACCURATE KING

I was there live. It sure was a spectacle. So glad I can say I got to see Jerry Lawler vs Terry Funk. It was everything I'd want out of a match between these two guys. I'd probably hate this kind of finish if anyone else tried to do it, but because it was Terry fucking Funk, it just worked.
