Getting Noticed By Management
He plays his character more than great. When was the last time Lawler was in a match? His TLC match with Miz has been talked about pretty favorably. Who is responsible for that? The Miz is. He did a great job carrying that match.
Complaints are made about Legends who deserved, but never captured the WWE Title. Jerry Lawler, in a sense, is one of them. Sure he is passed his prime now, but it should be noteworthy, as well as commendable, that Miz made a "Legend" look so damn good.
I just think it's funny because I watched that match too and I actually thought the exact opposite--Lawler carried Miz through that match and it was Lawler who actually made the Miz look good.
Perhaps in the end we are both right, and who knows, maybe that means it was a really good pairing for both wrestlers. In the end though, I never mean to bash the Miz as I am a fan to some extent, but I don't believe he could be considered "the best champ in years".
