* {{Narm}}: While it was probably due to DissonantSerenity, it can still be unintentionally funny how blasé he announced his belief that Wrestling/MickFoley was killed when he fell through the roof of the cell in that Hell in the Cell match from King of the Ring '98, especially compared to [[Wrestling/JimRoss JR's]] call of the same moment, or even his own horrified reaction to Mick's earlier fall.

* FunnyAneurysmMoment: In WWE '13 if you are having a match with Eve Torres you'll occasionally hear Jerry Lawler make a comment about needing an EMT at ringside because his "heart skipped a beat." It's fairly cringeworthy when you remember that Lawler had a major heart attack on live TV in September 2012 that nearly killed him. In THQ's defense, the audio commentary had been done for a while at that point and Lawler himself has already made these kinds of jokes following his return, and Lawler was simply trying to say that Eve was hot.

* CrossesTheLineTwice: From using his mother's death as part of a storyline to constantly making jokes about his own near-death, is there anything that Jerry finds offensive? (And these are just two examples of the last 3 years of his four-decade career.)
* DorkAge: His "puppies!" phase is generally considered the lowest point of his career as WWE's color commentator. Before then, he played a magnificent heel commentator during his days as a foe against Bret Hart and later was RescuedFromTheScrappyHeap by turning face.
