WWE wrestler Jerry 'The King' Lawler has revealed he recently suffered a stroke while having sex with his fiancée.

His latest medical episode comes six years after he went into cardiac arrest live on air during Raw in 2012. 

Lawler said: 'I got up and I said something to Lauryn and I didn't really feel anything, and she said, "What did you say?" And I realized then that whatever I said didn’t sound right, and then she looked at me — we made eye contact — and she said, "Oh my God, Jerry, go look in the mirror."'

He said he was unable to speak. 'I walked around to the bathroom and I look in the mirror, and the whole right side of my mouth is drooping all the way down to my chin.'

Lauryn apparently panicked and said: 'Oh my God, you’re having a stroke.'

He said: 'We live about five minutes from the Baptist East hospital in Memphis. She didn’t even want to call an ambulance - she said just get in the car and she figured she could get me there before an ambulance.'

After being examined by doctors they discovered he had a hemorrhage in his brain. He was immediately placed in an intensive care unit.

He couldn't speak for over two days, however, he has now made a full recovery and even attended WrestleMania last weekend.

During the weekend he hosted the WWE Hall of Fame ceremony, appeared at WrestleCon, and also took part in calling the Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal. 

In 2016 Lawler and McBride were arrested on domestic violence charges.

They were both charged with domestic assault after an incident at Lawler's East Memphis home. 

According to an arrest affidavit, when police arrived McBride told officers that she and Lawler got into an argument that turned violent. 

McBride claimed Lawler held her against the kitchen counter and then hit her on the left side of her head and pushed her against the stove.

She also said that Lawler went upstairs and got an unloaded pistol that he put on the kitchen counter and told her to 'go ahead and kill yourself.'

Lawler said they had an argument and it turned violent when McBride scratched him on his face, threw a candle at him and kicked him in the groin.

He claims McBride was intoxicated and that she was the one who brought the gun in the kitchen.
