Could have put it on him after he started commentating, too. Have him develop a huge ego from it and constantly talk about himself being champion and being better than all these other guys in the ring. Then get his comeuppance from some unexpected up and comer. Could have worked way back when.
Lawler signed a contract when he came in where he could still wrestle in Memphis (their Monday night shows, plus Memphis T.V). He wasn't going to do anything remotely close to a full house show so, hence why he was never under any consideration for the title.
