I'll try to make this a series with random wrestlers and have discussions on what their legacy is. Where do you rank Mike "The Miz" Mizanin? He's been in the WWE close to 10 years now which is proly longer than what most people would have gave him. He's kind of a tricky wrestler to grade imo


Stats/Accomplishments:
WWE Champion
2x IC Champion
3X WWE Tag Team Champion
2x US Champion
2x World Tag Team Champion
Money In The Bank winner (2010)
Triple Crowd Winner
Most Improved Wrestler (2008, 2009)
Tag Team Of The Year (2008)

    Miz improved alot over the years but he still comes off as a mark that managed to actually make it. It's part of his appeal but its also apart of why hes not believable as a character.

    Tries too hard on the mic and comes off as someone who thinks he's better then he is on it.

    I can go on for days about this untalented ? ....He's terrible in the ring...People claim Cena cant wrestle? THIS dude cannot wrestle....He's one dimensional, His mic antics is that of a prep school frat boy and his work level is sub par. Where he is now (after a huge push) is proof of that. Even a co sign from Flair aint get him anywhere.

    Miz is a triple crowd champ (something Cena or the Undertaker haven't done). I think he has overachieved at this point

    Ya, and he's the least talented of the 25 that can claim that accolade. I wouldnt say he has overachieved, I would say he's been overpushed. He doesnt belong in the ring, he belongs on red carpets and overseas tours......

    I still can't believe this guy headlined a Wrestlemania. Not only that, he went over.

    Think of the names of Wrestlemania headliners.

    Hogan, Warrior, Savage, Bret Hart, Shawn Michaels, Austin, Rock, Taker, Cena..... and The Miz?

    That don't even sound right

    I tried to give the guy a chance, his gimmick isn't all that horrible, whatever it is, but it's the way he comes off; he's cheesy.

    He also looks like a gopher with Down syndrome.

    It's embarrassing how bigger his new finishing move is than he is. WWE need to stop trying to make The Miz happen.

    He was more tolerable and better on the mic as a heel, IMO.

    His face character is wack and VERY forced, and this ? done botched the setup for the figure 4 enough to have his own Botchmania episode.

    Garbage. Stephanie McMahon overstated his importance when she buried him.

    Hmm... I really have no idea what I can truly say about The Miz other then his run as a face has been absolutely...? ! In all honesty, I still believe until this day that John Morrison should have gotten the push that Miz received or been either WWE or World Champion before the Miz got there. I'll give credit where credit is due but, lets face facts Miz will never be "The Guy" like Hogan, Rock, Austin, or Cena in WWE. I hate to say it I don't see Miz winning another World Championship in his career. Dude is going to be in mid-card status the rest of his career in WWE b/c that title run he had from November 2010 - May 2011 will probably be his only WWE Championship reign unless things get very bad in WWE where they barely have main event guys (which I ever doubt will happen) or they just totally do a 360 with his character (or give him an actual gimmick).

    I'll say this though when it comes to The Miz I think he's a very good guy to use for PR events or in general he didn't do to bad with that when he had his run as champion. As far as the OTTB poll options in this thread goes... Miz is not a hall of famer by any means then again, WWE puts anybody (KoKo B. Ware) in their Hall of Fame so more then likely in about 15 - 20 yrs Miz will be in the WWE H.O.F. just b/c it's WWE.
