11 WWE Superstars who have tried their hand at cricket

#3 The Miz traveled to the UK with WWE and played cricket with Ben Stokes

WWE visited Newcastle, England in 2016, and The Miz and Dolph Ziggler managed to catch up with England’s ace cricket all-rounder, Ben Stokes. Still recovering from the over that snatched the Cricket World Twenty20 from England’s hands after Stokes conceded consecutive sixes to Carlos Brathwaite of the West Indies, Stokes decided to teach The Miz and Ziggler a thing or two about cricket.

England & Wales Cricket Board partnered with WWE and allowed the three men to visit Ravenswood Primary School in Newcastle for some promotional activities. The three men played a friendly game with the kids of the school, where even The Most Must-See Superstar in WWE and The Showoff got a chance to bat and bowl while getting some tips from Stokes and the kids of the school.

While Ziggler decided not to get in the line of fire, The Miz was brave enough to face a few deliveries from Stokes.

Later on, Stokes celebrated his birthday in the Metro Radio Arena, Newcastle, where he arrived in style and joined the crowd in watching a WWE Live show.
