Jerry Lawler says Vince Promised him a WrestleMania Match

Jerry "The King" Lawler, who has been with WWE for 16 years, spoke about never getting the chance to wrestle at WrestleMania:

"Two years ago, I had a meeting with Vince close to WrestleMania and I said, 'Vince, I've been here since 1993 and I've never even wrestled on a WrestleMania.' He looked at me surprised and said, 'That's a travesty.' He said, 'We could rush something this year, but this is something big, the King having his first match ever at WrestleMania. Next year, I promise we're going to do something big.' Well, that was two years ago." Lawler was hoping to be a part of the Chris Jericho vs. WWE Legends match, but he was never asked. "I keep thinking any minute, boy, one of these nights we're going to be announcing what kind of big match we're going to be in," Lawler said. "And the next thing you know, WrestleMania comes and goes again and no match for me."
