Jerry Lawler No-Sells Terry Funk's Taped Promo - Re: Empty Arena Match (April 1981)

When Lance Russell rolls tape of Terry Funk challenging Jerry Lawler to an Empty Arena Match and then hand-delivers Funk's invitation, Lawler refuses to sell the promo and walks away without comment. What the...?

Well, in fact, it's a reasonable response if you think about it. Promos are intended to sell tickets--if no fans will be attending the match, then why should Jerry bother cutting a promo on it? Besides, he probably thinks it's a stupid idea. :)

Date: April 1981
Location: WMC TV5 Studio, Memphis
Interview: Lance Russell
