When Mike Mizannin joined the WWE as part of the 2004 Tough Enough competition, few fans could have expected what was going to happen.

Impressing in the competition, Miz made it to the finals but came second after losing to Daniel Puder in a 'Dixie Dog Fight' at the Armageddon Pay Per View that year.

Though he would lose the challenge, The Miz would eventually find himself in the company, but even that didn't come easy.

Joining in 2006 as the 'host' of Friday Night SmackDown, Miz underwent severe bullying behind the scenes, and would only receive his first push the following year, when he moved to ECW.

Fortunately, things would finally lookup for the A-Lister on the Extreme brand, as teaming with fellow Tough Enough-alum John Morrison allowed Miz to show his charismatic.

Capturing the United States, Tag Team, WWE Championship and Money in the Bank, in 2010, The Miz has also become the company's resident movie star thanks to the Marine film franchise, and is now considered by many as one of WWE's most reliable stars, and the most succesful person from Tough Enough.
