#4 The Miz

Enter — The most must-see sports entertainer of all-time

In the summer of 2001, the world was introduced to Mike Mizanin, a 20-year old man-child from Ohio, with an extreme love for professional wrestling. Mike was a cast member on the hit MTV reality series called 'The Real World,' a program where 7 strangers are picked to live together, under one roof, for several months. During the show, Mike made it clear that he had a dream of becoming a professional wrestler. In fact, he even had an alternate persona that he would switch to from time-to-time when he wanted to display his infatuation with wrestling. This character was known as The Miz.

Many of Mike's friends and family probably laughed at the idea of this "Miz" character ever being taken seriously by anyone, much less someone from the WWE. Well, we know how that worked out.

The Miz has grown to be one of the most decorated Superstars of the current era. The Miz has a list of accolades which are a mile long, including 8 WWE Intercontinental Championship reigns, 6 Tag Titles, 2 United States Titles and of course, his 160 days run as the WWE Champion. He is also the twenty-fifth Triple Crown Champion, as well as the fifth Grand Slam Champion. The Miz could walk away right now and be more than qualified for Hall of Fame induction.

Jonathan, a big fan of Bray Wyatt, would like to see the latter's brother, Bo Dallas, continue his legacy as Uncle Howdy. If he were to work on the storyline, Jonathan would book the return of Erick Rowan as Howdy’s muscle. He thinks it would be a great way to honor the former Universal Champion.
