PWInsider is reporting that a court has ruled Jerry "The King" Lawler not guilty stemming from an incident at Sam's Town Casino during a Memphis Wrestling event on June 15 where Lawler was accused of "shooting" on Sal Corrente. Corrente filed assault charges against Lawler shortly after the event.

According to reports, Corrente wanted a continuance of the case, but the court wouldn't allow it. Corrente has the option to apeal the decision if he desires. Media were on hand for the court's decision. When asked, Corrente had no comment. He is scheduled to make an appearance on "Bubba The Love Sponge" later today.
