May be because wsj is playing smart here. When go to the article for the first time they are putting a cookie on your browser, so even when you visit through a search engine it is still able to detect you as a previous visitor and showing you a paywall. Use a different browser to do the search or clear the cookies before doing the search or block all cookies form wsj. That's what I did with experts-exchange.com long back and it worked.

Nope. I only ever do the search trick after hitting the paywall, and it always works for me.
