10 Wrestlers Who Married Their Fans
10. Jerry Lawler (Miss. Kitty)
Might as well start with a whirlwind romance.
Jerry Lawler was already a big star when he met 19-year old Stacy Carter at a charity softball game in 1989. That's right - nineteen eighty-nine. That, for those keeping score at home, was a full 11 years before the 'King' and the future Miss. Kitty got hitched.
Carter was a wrestling fan who'd attended the charity match with her mother. Mrs. Carter just so happened to be seeing one of the players from Lawler's team, so Jerry and Stacy got talking. Then, of course, she started attending some of his local wrestling events in the Memphis area.
By the late-90s, Carter was accompanying wrestlers to ringside on cards and living with Lawler. They got married in September 2000, but ended up splitting the following year after both had left the WWF. Kitty's backstage behaviour had reportedly irked many in the company, and Jerry followed his then-wife out the door.
