#3 WWE Chairman Vince McMahon asked The Miz to wear trunks

The Miz is one of the biggest Superstars in all of WWE today, and he is tirelessly working to help newer talent get a push in the company. The former WWE Champion has been asked to lay down and take the pin from several newer Superstars, but that’s not the only thing that he’s been asked to do by Vince McMahon.

As told by The Miz himself, Mr. McMahon is a big fan of the Superstar’s legs. In fact, Miz told ESPN.com's Jon Robinson back in 2009 that Vince McMahon asked him to stop wearing tights and opt for trunks instead.

"So I go out there, win my match, win my contract on Raw back, and I figure I'm going to go back to my shorts the next week. But walking back from the ring, Vince McMahon stops me and says, 'You look great in trunks, kid. You've got great legs. You should be wearing trunks.' I'm like, but I don't like the trunks. I want to look different. I want to stand out. And he said to me, 'You already stand out enough. Now we're going to make you serious.' I really didn't want to do it, but when Vince McMahon comes up to you and tells you that you have great legs and that you need to be wearing trunks, well, you're wearing trunks."

Even though Miz was against the idea, and did not like wearing trunks, he had to give in to the Chairman’s demands and start wearing trunks. Even today, we see The A-Lister make appearances in crisp suits but fight in the ring while wearing his signature trunks.
