7 WWE Superstars who deserve to win the Royal Rumble....but won't

#2 The Miz

When The Miz made his WWE debut back in 2006, most fans rolled their eyes at the thought of an MTV reality television star coming to the WWE. However, The Miz had the heart to not only put himself out there but prove to the world that he was much more than a Real World cast member.

The Miz has had a roller coaster ride type of career. Winning the WWE Championship in 2010 came as a curse to The Miz. As crazy as that may sound, it was true because The Miz just was not ready for the weight of that title. After losing the title, The Miz went back into a highly unpredictable ride once again. Fortunately for him, he has finally gotten all of the issues worked out in recent years and has honestly become one of the top WWE Superstars on the entire main roster.

Having The Miz win the Rumble would not only be the safest move but probably the smartest. Miz main-eventing Wrestlemania would be the perfect way to kickoff a great 2018!

Jonathan believes integrity is vital in journalism and ensures his work is high on accuracy. He conducts in-depth research and verifies information from various sources before curating a feature.

Jonathan has engaged in many meaningful conversations with prominent pro wrestling personalities like Drew McIntyre and DDP. He grew up in Memphis, admiring Hall of Famer Hulk Hogan during WWE’s Golden Era in the ‘80s. He has attended many pro wrestling events and credits The Hulkster for making his childhood memorable.

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.

When not writing pro wrestling features, Jonathan likes to collect sports memorabilia and has amassed a large collection of event-used and autographed relics over the years.
