The reason for this would be Jerry Lawler’s association with the boom period in wrestling in the late 90s and the familiarity that his voice will bring to potential viewers:
“FOX has floated the idea to WWE about having Jerry “The King” Lawler as a main part of their WWE studio show that will begin once SmackDown moves over in October. The feeling is that Lawler’s image & voice is a familiar one, thus something Fox Sports is looking for.”
