As we noted earlier today, all charges against Jerry Lawler stemming from his June 17th domestic assault arrest have been dismissed.

Subsequently, WWE has issued the following statement noting Lawler’s WWE suspension has been lifted:

“Jerry Lawler’s legal matter has been resolved and his suspension has been lifted, effective immediately.”

Lawler, 66, and his fiancee Lauryn McBride, 27, were arrested following and charged with domestic assault when Lawler had returned home from a wrestling event called “A Night At The Slammer.” Lawler told WMC Action News 5 shortly after the arrest that McBride had returned home a little later intoxicated from a friend’s house after watching Game 6 of the NBA Finals.
