Thus, not only does AA-173 leave almost 2 hours before AA-134 arrives, but it flies from a different airport
Actually, it is. 134 didn't arrive on time at LHR.
134 diverted to JFK due to engine failure. Later that morning, AA canceled 173, perhaps so that 777 could ferry over to LHR and fly as 135 LHR-LAX (since 134 had not yet arrived after its diversion to JFK). Probably because it was easier to disrupt the pax on the LGW-RDU and route them LHR-JFK-RDU than to try to re-route the 135 pax all the way back to LAX.
