During last night's episode of WWE RAW, the commentary suddenly cut midway through the second half of the show. Michael Cole then took to the camera full of tears and worry and reported that Jerry "The King" Lawler had passed out at commentary. He informed us that Lawler had collapsed to the floor and was taken backstage via a stretcher and was then given CPR. After that he was taken to the local Montreal Hospital where he is in isolation recieving cat scans and is breathing with oxygen. Jerry Lawler had just competed in a wrestling match earlier on in the night where we teamed with Randy Orton against CM Punk and Dolph Ziggler. In this match Jerry performed two diving fist drops within approximately ten seconds of each other. Michael Cole has stated for a third time during the show that "This is not apart of our entertainment" To conclude the RAW broadcast Michael Cole said that Jerry Lawler's condition has stabalised, his breathing and heart beat has stabalised and his chest and head is being cat scanned.
