Not much of a match. It's clearly an excuse to create two feuds, though - Lawler for the belt, and Lawler/Gilbert. In that sense, it works well enough.

 

I wish the cameraman had actually filmed Doug's run-in, though. I do agree with Loss that his antics pre-match don't feel very heelish, though the prev week's show sure made him seem like a heel against PG13.

I liked how they started out as weary friends at the start of these and each took more shortcuts towards the finish until the blatant Doug Gilbert interference and the crowning of a new champion in Rich. I thought this was pretty fun and had some great punches while it lasted. (**1/4)
