The Miz is absolutely the most underrated, under-appreciated wrestler on the planet. This guy is the best example of what “sports entertainment” means.
The problem The Miz has been forced to deal with is the fact that he was pushed way too prematurely when he had his Wrestlemania bout against John Cena at Wrestlemania 27. Following that title run, it seemed like the company just tossed him aside.

It has taken The Miz quite some time to get back to the level he is competing at today. In fact, I would go as far to say that his most recent Intercontinental Title reign was much more significant than his time with the WWE Championship.

Together with his wife Maryse, this duo has been having one of the best runs of anyone in this era.
If you consider the options, a main event contest between The Miz and Randy Orton, with The Miz being the defending champion, that scenario does not sound too bad. But, will the powers that be really pull the trigger on this option?
It’s probably not the most likely outcome, but it would be a match that fans would certainly enjoy, there's no question about it.

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.
