He mentions that he was completely caught up in the race while it was ongoing, but during the last week before the vote he started to question his decision to run. He had very good results at the polls but came up just short, and he returned to the wrestling business where he’s remained ever since.

Moore mentions that Kane has been involved in a few risqué storylines over the years, particularly the Katie Vick angle. As Moore describes the angle, Lawler has a hard time believing that this even aired on WWE programming because it was incredibly inappropriate. Obviously WWE programming is all scripted, but implying that a wrestler groped or had sex with a corpse is just taking things too far.

Lawler informs that most professional wrestlers are rarely as friendly with each other as fans think they are. They all work together and they’d never take liberties in the ring because the entire business is built upon trust, but that also doesn’t mean that these guys and girls are all best friends who spend all of their free time together when they’re not working.

Lawler mentions that his relationship with Bill Dundee was a prime example of this. They worked together a lot over the years but they weren’t best friends by any means. In spite of this, they were all professional with each other and did great business together. He mentions that in today’s social media age we see lots of heels and babyfaces taking pictures together, but he and Dundee certainly would have never been caught in a picture together back in the day.
