Lawler on Andy Kaufman deserving a spot in the WWE Hall of Fame's celebrity wing: "I truly believe that’s when wrestling became sports entertainment when we involved this Hollywood actor. Vince McMahon even told me he was jealous that we got Andy Kaufman to come to Memphis. Andy actually approached Vince Sr. with the idea to wrestle females on his show and he was hesitant. Thats how I got hooked up with Andy, just by a stroke of luck."
