Well, to be fair Jerry Lawler has held more championships than any one man currently or ever in the WWE. There is a reason Jerry Lawler is a Hall of Famer. He was one of the true greats back in the day so give him at least a little credit. Jerry still wrestles when the WWE allows him to in Memphis at his own Wrestling fed. The Miz hasn't even been Champion all of a month yet and people are already saying he's shit. Give it time, he's green, he will get better.
And honestly, would you have rather see a squash match between Lawler and The Miz? Not really. What happened tonight will probably lead to some kind of retirement thing for King which everyone bitches about so there's always some good to come out of a negative. Just give it time.
Champ or no champ, I have never liked the Miz. He looked extremely weak in that match, how is he supposed to stand up to someone like Sheamus, or a healthy Orton, or if Trips comes back.
Wouldn't have liked a squash either, they should have given Jerry the title. What the hell else do they have going on. If they wanted to get Cole some heat, he could have cost him the title next week.
It shouldn't have taken outside interference from two different guys for the Miz to beat Lawler.
