What's the story?
Shane McMahon and The Miz have formed the oddest sort of alliance on SmackDown Live. They have even earned the opportunity to face The Bar for the titles at the Royal Rumble.
Well, this week's edition of SmackDown Live coincides with Shane McMahon's 49th birthday. And The Miz has promised to hold celebrations for the man.
In case you didn't know...
The Miz went to the finals of the 'Best In The World' tournament at WWE Crown Jewel. Because he couldn't compete in the finals owing to an injury, Shane McMahon stepped in and won the whole tournament for SmackDown Live.
