Has Lawler got something against MVP?

[Jason]

Three weeks in a row this happened and it's bothering me a little. Every week now, Lawler keeps digging into MVP by saying he "cheap shotted" Miz and that it wasn't fair etc. But isn't Lawler a face? I thought the faces were always right?

When he came out and Miz lost to Kingston, Lawler said that wasn't fair and wasn't right. Then he rambled on repeatedly last night when Miz was on commentary about how he cheap shotted Miz at the Rumble, Cole of course snapped and defended him by saying that he was rubbing it in his face. And surprise surprise, when MVP jumped the barrier, he went on again.

I'm not sure what they're doing here, but either MVP is becoming a sore loser type character or Lawler has something seriously against him. He pretty much refuses to put him over, yet when Cena puts Sheamus through the table one week, it's okay because he "arrogantly turned his back". Why isn't it okay for MVP to shut Miz up when he was rubbing it in his face? I don't get it. Thoughts?

I think they're trying to turn Lawler heel again. Veeeeeeeeeeeeeery sloooooooooooooooowly.

[Krimzon]

Lawler also hilariously said that every time he shakes MVP's hand, he checks to see if he's got any fingers missing. Best line from King in a while.

People who've been to prison give a lot of material for his one liners. Plus let's face it, attacking someone from behind IS a cheap shot.

As The Tank stated, I believe they're slowly turning King heel again. Which is a good thing. A heel Lawler is great!

[Greer]

I was thinking this a while ago that they were turning him however like the author of the thread stated...he's ONLY doing this with MVP. He still supports every other face EXCEPT MVP.

So he's like an inverse JBL...who supported every heel except for Miz (and MVP for a short time period)

Striker: What does that even mean?!

[EJS]

Lawler is just overjoyed to have someone to throw his black criminal jokes at since Booker and Cryme Tyme aren't on Raw.

Maybe it was Lawler's ship that MVP held up.

"King, when did you join my side?"

Did they ever find the guy who broke into Messiah's apartment and cut off his thumb? Maybe King knows something we don't?

Because Miz never kicked Lawler's head off like Sheamus did?

[Brickstone Kid]

He also had a great line last night when MVP showed up and attacked Miz. It happened so quick that it kinda got lost in the moment, but he said, "I should've known MVP was about to show up. I just heard his name on my police scanner." Hilarious.

Lawler was also supportive of Big Show after he hit the ref last night as well, so they are turning him heel.

He should've supported Big Show. Show was f***ing ROBBED!

That's true.

Its bothering you? Sure isnt this what we all wanted, the commentators not being so blindly up for the faces?

I agree there but this is a whole big contradictry (sp?). It's okay when Cena throws Sheamus through the table because he turned his back arrogantly, it's okay for DX to get intentionally disqualified etc etc. But it's not okay for MVP to get some revenge, I don't get it. MVP is a face just like them and if King is supporting them, then shouldn't he be supporting the rest? He's a face, right?

Michael Cole is a face, and he supports them all. Matt Striker is a smark commentator, he likes everyone in between but it seems like Jerry Lawler cheers for everybody who is NOT MVP and I just don't get it. If MVP did something to him or something, then yeah but Lawler is constantly ripping him on him for no apparent reason. I usually hate when they kiss their ass all the time but I just think it's wrong to single out one wrestler. If Lawler was against 2 or 3 other faces, I wouldn't be bothered at all.

He's not putting MVP over at all and if you were a first time viewer, you'd swear that MVP was a sore loser. And to be fair, that was ages when Sheamus kicked Lawler's head off, Miz had a short feud with him back in May last year too, so if he's holding grudges for that long, then...

Lawler's doing the slow heel bit. I already mentioned his standing up for Big Show.
