A judge subsequently ordered Lawler and McBride to stay away from one another.

WWE announced following Lawler's arrest that he was suspended indefinitely, but has since lifted the ban following the dismissal of the charges. 

“Jerry Lawler’s legal matter has been resolved and his suspension has been lifted, effective immediately," WWE said in a statement via ProWrestling.net.

Lawler had been part of the SmackDown announce team along with Mauro Ranallo and Byron Saxton, but he has been replaced by David Otunga in recent weeks.
