The Miz has been part of WWE's main roster now for more than 15 years. In that time, he has been able to prove that he can step into the ring with some of the biggest stars in the business.

Miz came to the company with no prior wrestling experience and has since shown vast improvement. This all could have all been taken away when he failed to catch R-Truth as part of a spot on Monday Night RAW back in 2012.

The two men were part of a six-pack challenge and when Truth delivered a flip dive out of the ring, The Miz failed to catch him. According to a report by Dave Meltzer of The Wrestling Observer, The Miz then received quite the dressing down from Triple H backstage following the match. Meltzer revealed:

"HHH gave Miz a tongue lashing backstage about not catching him. Miz was a big favorite of management a year ago because his notoriety was such from 'Real World' that they got so much publicity when he won the title that nobody else in the company could have gotten."

Miz was told about the importance of protecting his opponents in matches and it appears that the star learned his lesson since he is now a two-time former WWE Champion.
