The Miz had quite a topsy-turvy night on RAW. After losing to Gran Metalik of all people earlier in the show, he was later handed back his Money in the Bank briefcase by Adam Pearce after the valid argument he made on last week's episode.

While The Miz was smart enough to point out the loophole during the cash-in at TLC 2020, it's still hard to imagine him becoming the WWE Champion in his current role. The way he danced along with John Morrison after getting back the briefcase itself showed this story is a comedic one.

Honestly, if he cashes-in his contract on McIntyre, it can lead to crowd uproar and create more damage to the overall product. WWE has found themselves in a rabbit hole, and it would be hard to find a way out of it.

He needs to be booked strongly on RAW, accumulating wins against mid-card and upper-mid card guys, instead of losing to Gran Metalik and engage in impromptu dance sessions.
