Perhaps Lawler's biggest claim to fame, however, was his staged rivalry with comedian Andy Kauffman, who wrestled Lawler in 1982.

• WWE Career

  Upon entering the WWE in 1993, Lawler feuded with Bret Hart and the entire Hart family. He also worked programs with Roddy Piper, Ultimate Warrior and Doink the Clown.

  By 1998, Lawler became a permanent fixture at the commentator table with Jim Ross. He continues to work alongside Ross on WWE Raw.

  Lawler was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2007.
