If he lost it to King by some fluke (or Cena interference) I think Miz would have to have a strong showing to win it back (aka kick the shit out of King).
Bingo. If they do give Lawler a "Thank you" title run, it will be a novelty thing, not to build any sort of credibility with The King, but rather the heat between The Miz and John Cena. It's two easy steps:

1. John Cena costs The Miz the WWE Title against the fan favourite no one gives any real chance of winning.

2. The Miz kicks the crap out of that guy the next night and wins it back.

Although, what Brigstocke suggested could work. There's no real reason that it wouldn't -- the only real one being that you'd probably then have two face champions defending their titles at WrestleMania. It might be more productive to have at least one of them lead to a face capturing the title.

Another idea is that The Miz could be cost the WWE Title by Cena, but then someone else wins the WWE Title from Lawler. Maybe CM Punk? For some reason, I don't feel a title match between Cena and The Miz as compelling as the two legitimately wanting to kill each other after costing each other everything.

There is no way that Miz vs. Jerry Lawler is closing the show over two Chambers, and the WWE doesn't let SmackDown! main event anymore. It'll be the RAW Chamber closing things. If Cena costs The Miz earlier in the night, then The Miz and Alex Riley could do something shady to cost Cena later.

That way you can also slip Jerry Lawler into the WrestleMania card in a big way -- teaming with John Cena against The Miz & Alex Riley.
