• FOX Wants WWE Hall Of Famer

Earlier this year, WWE Hall of Famer Triple H revealed that a weekly WWE studio show will air on Fox Sports 1 on Tuesday nights (when SmackDown moves to FOX in October).

According to WrestleVotes, FOX officials want WWE Hall of Famer Jerry “The King” Lawler to be a main part of this show:

“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.”

Along with Lawler, Renee Young is also expected to be a part of this show.

For those who don’t know, WWE Hall of Famer Jim Ross recently revealed that a FOX executive wanted him to host this WWE studio show, but he was done with WWE and signed with AEW.
