In this clip from "The Solomonster Sounds Off," host The Solomonster details The Miz's championship run of 2010 and shares some reasons why he was given the WWE Championship in a program against John Cena and The Rock.
Till this very day i still can not understand why this guy was pushed so much and not: morrison, benjamin, mvp and wade smh
"The Miz can do it, so why not me"
- CM Punk
What people don't understand was that, at the time The Miz was on FIRE. He had an incredible heel run with the US title, cut some of the best promos on the show (especially the one about getting kicked out of the locker room), and was getting heat from the crowd like no one else. Sure his matches weren't 5-star classics, but they were a lot better than what people like to give him credit for. The main problem with Miz's title run was that he was just a pawn that was used to set up Cena vs. The Rock. Instead of focusing on building a new star and turning an upper-midcarder guy into a permanent main event player, they used him to help a part-time talent that would leave just 2 years later.
I remember at the time Miz definitely was super hot, but looking back on it its like wow, I FKing hate the Miz, I can't watch him. That whole thing with Daniel Bryan, I thought both of them buried themselves, they both sounded like idiots on that show and Miz always sounds like a bitch.
No
@@orlandobernabe717 yes
Miz deserves everything he got, he worked his ass off when nobody really respected him and came out on top.
finally a sensible comment on this page.
I'm not the biggest miz fan but he's good in the ring, definitely improved over time and truly slowly worked his way up the ladder
Such bs, Miz was amazing as an heel and had a sick look.... He deserves another title run
No
+Chris Jordan (WWE Uploader) no, no he doesnt
I agree Miz is one of the best performers WWE has.
Basically the WWE went with a mouthpiece instead of a good wrestler
Care to revisit that? He was lacking before but all this experience has helped him evolve into one of the best heels around. You need to invest in stars, people you can rely on and he never lets them down.
I liked it when the Miz and R-Truth had their little run together, that was quite cool.
truth was more over in that group than miz
He cut an awesome promo. When he turned the mic logo upside down.
I'll say this, Miz was over at a time wear reality shows were fuckin Hot(Jersey Shore) and he had that personality.
He was better for it - look at him today. They've built a real star and he has genuine credibility.
i really like this guy's input, worth listening to if you're a true fan. im really glad you pointed out that the miz is a decent worker in the ring at this point in time. also, unlike 90 percent of the roster, he has an identity and makes it work. a realllll good heel IMO.
Solid worker, very scathing on the promos.
Miz is a lot better then people think
I actually enjoyed Miz as WWE champion. I'm still the only Miz fan I know. I admire the guy's passion and determination to gain respect against all odds.
Miz was one of the best things of 2011 (One of my favourite years in wresting) Him & Truth were amazing together. Sucks where they both are now.
It should've been CM Punk in the WM27 main event against Cena with Cena as champion and have Rock cost him the title, but then we may not have gotten Punk's infamous pipe bomb.
+Roguemember They should've pushed Punk from the beginning anyway. The pipebomb was a result of Punk's frustration---yet if they pushed CM right from the jump as a top guy with great storylines & kept him protected, then the "pipeomb" wouldn't be necessary. We'd still have a kickass, badass wrestler and he probably would've never left WWE in 2014.
Janie Archur
Yeah, they missed a great opportunity in 2006 when they didn't give Punk the ECW title. That's a reason why Heyman left that year. But nope, it had to go to Bobby Lashley. That guy was protected.
+Roguemember Still would've gotten the Pipe bomb. He still would've been leaving in July which is where the pipebomb began, was the open discussion of him leaving with the WWE title, how much better would it have been if HE walked of mania with the title and from mania to July, guys have been trying to take the title off him but have failed..could've had Orton in there trying to win the title, hell could've got a three way between Cena Orton and Punk or four way adding in Barrett. Just made so much more sense!
Miz is pretty legit now thou
I thought the Miz's best work was from late 2009 - May 2011 being his really good and Lengthy US title reign and short lived alliance with Big show as double champ, then winning MITB and eventually having the WWE title reign, Miz was cutting some really good promos, getting major heat from the crowd and was also putting some some solid matches, Of course most of you IWC sheep hate the guy because he doesn't have a huge moveset or fly around the ring like bug or have an bland, vanilla personality since that's what most IWC fans crave, boring, dull characters like Seth Rollins.
I'm not the biggest Miz fan but he did a good job as WWE champ for not being ready, it was obviously too big of a spot for him at the time but he did the best he could do and he's in the position he is now because WWE dropped the ball with him and never cared enough to pick it back up.
the miz is he best wrestler i ever seen in my 24 yrs as pro wrestling fan? nope he is not worst wrestler either. miz is decent in ring. doesn't suck in ring as he did in 2006-2007. he is in midcard as tag team champions with damien sandow in decent feud with uso twins over tag titles.
Brian Gewirtz was a big fan of Miz back during his "Road Rules" days, so he strapped a rocket on his back the minute he got to the main roster. Check Miz's Win-Loss record during that time. He won every single feud except against Cena and Bret Hart, who coincidentally were the only two people he had back to back losses against during his years long push.
To quote Mike Graham: Never drew a dime!
Miz being in the main event is what later lead to the CM Punk "shoot" promo, so at least there's that.
The WWE title in early 2011 was the most dodgiest road ever. It was the main fault in WM 27. All that was to do was to promote Rock vs Cena. But if it wasn't for HHH and Takers match. Plus Ortons and Punks. Then it may be the worst WM ever. As much as Miz may personally see this as his golden moment and may bring it up as a landmark in WWE. I see it as it's darkest booking slum. A bad nightmare if you will. Would have been better if Orton got title back and it was Punk vs Randy for title then have Miz cash in a month later so it can set up Punks moment of glory. Then the match he had with Cena. Cena could have wrestled anyone at that PPV and the Rock can still interfere and cost him. But hey too late now. The Miz was never a draw so who ever thought it was a brilliant idea for him to be champion at Mania is seriously not right in head.
Miz needs to go to TNA & have a match with Eric Young.
Here's my personal take, on why The Miz was placed into the WRESTLEMANIA card. The WWE wanted a guy, who understood that he was NOT supposed to "outshine" either THE ROCK nor John Cena. They required someone who would "milk" the WWE title picture, for a short period of time, but then when it came time for the ROCK vs Cena program to go into full swing; the "filler guy" (The Miz) would fade into relative obscurity, and it wouldn't be questioned. With Wade Barrett in that spot; he actually has talent and fighting ability; so the crowd would have actually enjoyed the match. A lot of people actually RESPECT Barrett's in-ring ability, and there would have been a risk, that the crowd might have actually leaned towards him, in a match against Cena. The Rock might have even gotten jeered for interfering in a match like that. I mean; Barrett is so willing to put in work, that he's starting to make the BAD NEWS BARRETT persona; slightly entertaining. Essentially; The MIZ is a slightly BETTER LOOKING version of Mick Foley during his initial WWE Title run. Generally a "bench warmer", who gets a short run once and a while, but knows when it's time to drop the title to REAL MAIN EVENT PLAYERS. Wade Barrett would have never just played the filler position.
This is a very good thesis that I never thought about.
ReeseAwesome Thank you.
sounds like a pretty solid theory.
Travis williams Thank you.
+mindphreak4money Then how you explain Miz bagging the hottest diva alive, Maryse?
People forget how good Miz was as a Heel, from when he came back and started wearing proper trunks rather than those weird shorts and started wearing a suit in non wrestling segments, he went on a run becoming one of the most hated guys in the company with with real I wanna see this guy get punched in the face heat
What hurt the Miz, was that whenever he was on television he would lose viewers, in the Main Event Time Slot, and buyrates for his PPV Title Matches weren't nearly as good as they were years prior. One of those thing were it came down to wether he was drawing or not, and they felt he wasn't, no matter how entertaining he was.
i always loved the Miz
Me too xD
I always felt when miz and morrison were a tag team that was bright spot in his career. Let's face it miz was the guy they wanted and rest is history. On the bright side he's got maryse how he got her is anybody guess but he's good.
I kinda of liked Miz run as the champ. They had the upset victory when he won against Orton which was handled well. Sure his rivalry with King could of been handled better (they should of let King hold the title and then hot potato back to Miz) and having The Rock over shadow the main event was a bit of a mistake. But at the time it worked, I think looking back it could of been better but all in all I thought the "I proved everyone wrong" attitude of The Miz at the time worked.
The big problem with that championship run and the same with CM Punk's run as well, is it got prioritised under whatever Cena was doing at the time
miz was good.
lol
Gotta disagree Solo, Miz has never been a good face or heel. He has Xpac heat with me that whenever his on the screen I'd rather turn the tv off. Absolutely a vacuum for entertainment, the Miz today might be slightly better in the ring but that doesn't cut it with me, waiting for his release and bring someone else up to fill his spot.
It was actually 2008-2011
he was awful. forget devaluing the road to wrestlemania, he devalued the belt. Didn't even look threatening to any opponent, never won clean, always ran from a fight after empty threats, promos were boring. awful. god awful.
This is one of the issues of WWE dropping the ball and not the talent. The Miz did everything correctly. He continued to get himself over even though we was losing a majority of his matches. Leading up to Mania, Miz was having pretty decent matches too. His feud with Daniel Bryan proved that not only could he work, but he could also make a story work. The pop Bryan got when winning the U.S. title would not have been nearly as big had the Miz not been a good heel. His match with Cena had barely any heat to it, and the little it did have was because of Miz. This was probably the worst era of Cena, his character was stale at this point and the matches were mostly average. It wasn't until Cena started working with Punk that his career was rejuvenated.
The main event for Mania 27 was so lackluster and it ended what was a pretty good show on a very bad note. The miz and both Cena were made to look 2nd rate compared to Rock. Not only did they leave the top face of the company laying, but also their #1 heel. How does anyone get over on that? Miz did everything correctly leading up to Mania. He had a successful TV feud with Lawler, a great match with Morrison(should've been at the Rumble) He brought in a lot of media that generally probably wouldn't have gave two shits about it. He improved his character and matches to the point of being a legitimate star. WWE fumbled it and Miz has never recovered. He dropped the belt a month later in what was a pretty good cage match. Then proceeded to have a shitty IQuit match that was only designed to make Cena look good. He continued with an alright team with Truth, but it was never going to be anything of note.
Look where he's at now, he had a failed face experiment, which once again isn't necessarily his fault, what good heel did he work with? It's funny how twice in the same year, WWE dropped the ball with two separate top Heels (Del Rio), and they never fully recovered.
That’s true
WWE just need some real competition and they will turn things around I miss WCW
CM Punk should've been given that exact role! He was already added to the Nexus soon after so his target WAS John Cena. It also would've made sense since The Rock would eventually face CM Punk for the WWE Championship! Miz should've been the first guy to cash in and fail!
As much as I like Miz... the truth is he plugged more into the reality of how our Media has justified "reality celebrity" to people who genuinely work and earn it. That is the real reason John Cena is so hated, because he worked and was loyal.
The big problem is.. they are trying to manufacture the same thing with Seth Rollins, and the role doesn't fit.
He was better as a heel the face Miz killed his character for me
Agreed
I Still Think John Morrison Or Shelton Benjamin Should've Got Pushed.
They didn't have the promo skills
Tayone Pender Sad, but true. That's a major reason that Cesaro is unable to get elevated.
+Ricky Baker, that would have sold so much more tickets and help the Company.
+Travis McDonald Anyone who doesn't have mic skills can get elevated with a manger. Ex: Brock Frikin Lesnar
Even though i think he's underrated on the mic, he's nowhere near great and it goes to show how far you can go with a great mouth piece
1Deminator no, but Morrison and Benjamin had a great look, but couldn't talk. Brock can talk, just not go off for 20 minutes. People don't want to hear him talk, they want someone else to talk him up. Plus, we know how fans are, they get what they want, then complain or don't react once they do. So Idk if either of those guys could've even got over if WWE did push them.
Body in shape? He looks the same
the 2011 roster is that much different from the roster right now as we speak...barrett should've been the push instead of lame miz
Many judgments of Miz mainly comes from him having a reality tv background, which always questions his credibility in the eyes of fans.
Why The Miz Won The WWE Championship?
McMahon was smoking crack.
Maybe they went with Miz because he was Daniel Bryan's "mentor" in NXT. And they fired Bryan, and rubbed it in our faces even more by pushing Miz. Yeah, that doesn't make any sense so perfect for WWE storyline.
Miz is an under rated heel.
who did they first pair up with Daniel Bryan for a feud?
Miz is disliked so much that he puts people over just by talking to them,
everything from Quiet on the set to Awesome is designed to cringe everyone out, I hope anyways.
i never got what wwe seen in the Miz he was a joke to me David Arquette to the wwe title, didn't draw, couldn't wrestle, i couldn't take the guy seriously i'm not kidding you at times he would get mad and cut his angry promos about how he should be the main focus as champion i would laugh. Miz will possibly go down as the biggest flop wwe champion in history. now who should've got his spot man i wanna say Ted Dibiase wwe wasn't doing shit with him at the time, i like to say him and Miz were in reserve roles he was doing what Miz should've been and Miz was in his spot. Ted could've been a great champion, great wrestler, pretty good promo, has the family name so he's believable personally would've preferred him getting the money in the bank then going on to win the title.
The Miz is a high mid carder at best so wwe decided to make him a "stop gap" champion for a couple of months to build Cena vs Rock period
i think they depushed barrett in favour of miz because they didnt want to make it seem like somebody could come in from nxt & win the title straight away. just my theory anyway
How can Miz be what's wrong with WWE when he's stuck in mid card purgatory on Main Event?
I'm just wondering why the building popped for Miz when he pinned Cena at that WM is he was so bad?
JohnBlack2345 Because majority of wrestling fans hate cena. majority of people in arenas will cheer anyone who faces cena. Even when batista was heel wwe champion in 2010 batista was cheer aganst cena. people hate cena.
The fact that Miz is employed, and Morrison and Benjamin were let go, sickens me. At least the Morrison being a bitch about Melina thing, was grounds to let him go, but what about Carlito? He was cool, pun intended.
Carlito was mid carder at best and had good run but even admitted himself he had lost care and passion that he had and was gaining weight and not giving a fuck, basically he was burnt out and didn't care that's why he left WWE in 2010.
Morrison COULD of been Main event and probably should of been had he not left the company or had the Melina shit get in the way and Benjamin should of been World champ at some point but at least he still had a productive career.
You make some very good points. It still doesn't excuse the fact that the fucking Miz was allowed to be champ though.
Sho'Nuff Da Masta Miz ate aton of shit and kissed alot of ass, and improved his craft alot over the years to the point where Vince liked him, that's why he became champ, I didn't like him as champ originally either since I didn't buy him as Main eventer at that point but I thought he did good job for not being ready for the bright lights, I can see why it disgusts you that Miz is employeed and guys like Shelton and Morrison aren't but Morrison and Shelton both willingly left, they weren't fired or anything, Morrison was burnt out and WWE said doors are open and Shelton just decided not to resign.
I wish the miz was still a heel i would honest to god rather see the miz main event another wrestlemania with the wwe title than daniel bryan main event mania
AWESOMEONE1278 the miz is back in midcard. he is in good feud with ziggler over ic championship.
MrDivalover1 ok i know he is in a feud but why would they just give him the belt then like 4 months later he a mid card
his wwe title run in 2010 started off decent beating randy orton who big draw in wwe for wwe title raw in december 2010. then wwe creative had miz wrestle washup 61 yr old commentator jerry lawler which was joke. jerry should have not have been anywhere near wwe title match. miz like majority of wwe young talent drop title to cena. then went back to midcard. bray wyatt, alot young wrestlers have been buried by superman of wwe. miz had improve in ring since his first match in 2006.
John Morrison should have been the world heavyweight champion. They were pushing him and Miz as a heel tag team, but they split up and turned Morrison face, leaving him with no direction for his character. He turned face during the PG era, so the way he was booked sucked. He is one of the best wrestlers. I'd like to see Cena or CM Punk do the starship pain, or a shooting star press from a standing position. Morrison did high-flying moves, and it was insane and spectacular.
spinemelter2000 morrison was former world champion. john morrsion was former wwecw world champion in 2007.
Those were his best years. He carried the show, but it was just their third-best show. ECW on Tuesday was WWE's equivalent of WCW Saturday Night.
Indeed i went i saw punk finally defeat morrison for ecw world title at us bank arena in cincinatti, ohio in 2007. It was decent feud morrison and punk nice seeing punk win his first world title in wwe seven yrs ago in 2007.
The miz was what you call a transitional champion just like sheamus, waste of a spot really, aj styles and Kevin Owens has been booked a lot better than those guys where back then I wonder if that's something to do with triple h having a lot more control
mizz is cool wwe doe's not use him right miz need t tag with an feud against ziggler there A natural chemestry between them for some reason only I can see kind of like rock an austin an flair an hogan an flair...
since these two got nothing else to do why not book ziggler an miz in A last chance redemption match obviously that will be A behind the scene look at it an not part of the story but it would work like this if miz an ziggler tear the house down as I know they will then they should both be put in the main event if they fail then fine burry or even fire both of them that fair.
MIZ NEVER WON OVER THE CROWD NEVER DID NEVER WILL
He has with his Hollywood gimmick
iamobeliskquake Damien Sandow is more over than miz as his stuntdouble lol
Carlos Inda He is now, but Miz was more over than him at first.
Miz legend
Carlos Inda you were saying never will?? Lol
IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN JOHN CENA VS CM PUNK AT WM27
The Miz earned that match, but he only beat Cena because the Rock attacked Cena. Otherwise that atrocity would never have happened. The Miz is a great wrestler. Ric Flair chose The Miz over Punk to be his protoge. He even taught him the Figure 4.
Cenamark2 earn? HA
Cenamark2 ur name tells me all i need to know about u
I guess it tells you I'm a great wrestling fan, which I am. I've been watching since 1995 so when I say Cena is the best you'd best listen.
Cenamark2 cena the best?RYBACK IS A LEGEND
no no and no
cena was is and will be one of the biggest overrated ahole spotlight killer and bad wrestler we ever saw
u watched since 95 and rock or austin were not bigger then cena?u have a real problem.
Because it was the very worst era in WWF/E history and Cena needed a new heel to work with after Barrett at Mania.
I can't stand the Miz
The miz sucked then and sucks now
I think he just needs a new look. Beard long hair idk and not so loud on the mic and come out to new music dammit
miz was a horrible champion
He was entertaining asf
+Jonathan Lewis Hell yea. Hes just hating
L
He was GOD AWFUL
@@ChrisWolff2013 No he played the heel role well and was hated that was the point of his role and the reason to get the belt put on him an ultimate snob vs the super hero john semen
i say miz was selected as the champ because he kissed vinces ass
Miz was the worst champion in recent memory, and yes that includes Cena.
during late 2010, ,hè could have face wade barrett at wrestlemania for the belt
Miz is just a bad ripoff of Hollywood Rock
The Miz is so bland it's horrible. No personality or fire or a reason to watch his matches.
Really? Really?..............REALLY?! You think The Miz is bland? Really?
I C Wut U DID THAR
RumbleHD The "really" thing is extremely obnoxious and stupid. Its not original or creative in anyway.
The miz is terrible, I can't believe he even has a wwe contract.
I wouldn't say terrible. He was good enough for Ric Flair to make him his protege. Unfortuanately that fell apart when Reid Flair died. I wonder if Ric will ever want to get back to teaching The Miz. The Miz even mastered the Figure 4 and was making people tap with it.
Cenamark2 "The Miz even mastered the Figure 4" LMAO!!!!!!
He won some matches with it. How would you say he didn't master it?
Cenamark2 Don't worry, I'll tell you when you're older.
I'm 30. How much older must I be?
JBL has to be the worst champion in history. The Miz tells funny jokes sometimes. JBL is not funny or entertaining at all. His promos are more boring than C-Span. I don't see what the fuss is about Randy Orton. I'm definitely not a Miz fan, but he was only a 1-time champ. I can't count the number of times Blandy Bore-ton has been the champ, but it will probably be about 50 by the time he retires.
