Joey Ryan Dresses As Andy Kaufman at WrestleCon…And Faces Jerry Lawler

YouPorn sponsored indie superstar Joey Ryan arrived for his match against a mystery opponent tonight at the WrestleCon Supershow, cosplaying as the late Andy Kaufman. He came out and issued an open challenge, that was answered by none other than Kaufman’s old real life nemesis, Jerry “The King” Lawler. It was 36 years ago today that Lawler famously fought the real Andy Kaufman at Memphis Arena on April 5, 1982.
