The Miz discusses becoming champ, working with bret hart, his past hardships in the locker room, and much more. The first official and detailed interview as champ.
I kinda get teary eyed when I hear this interview! I can & im sure lots of people trying to break out into any kind of entertainment industry can totally relate to this guy! This guy has worked so hard to get where he is at. His words & story is very inspiring!
I respect the HELL outta the Miz, from everything hes been thru in the locker room to get to where he is, it takes a LOT of Focus, determination and character! Love this guy
I didn't really like The Miz, but now I see how dedicated he is, and how AWESOME he is, in and out of the ring. I'm glad he made it to the WWE title, and hope he becomes better and better, and earn more respect from the WWE Universe. Nowadays, I can see how hard-working he is. So, congratulations for you career, Miz. :)
I hated The Miz, but eventually he became an unbelivable love-to-hate character from the WWE. I have seen the WWE from 2 years now and I have enjoied every Miz's matches. I loved this enterview because you can see the real Mike talking about The Miz and the struggle which everybody has to fight in life to get what you dream to get. It would be AWESOME to get to meet him, better yet, to be his friend. Great interview, I wish to see more...
Honestly, Im happy for the guy. He started on a reality show actually being the Miz character. He later went on to work on the indies, and was actually was on tough enough season 4 and lost. He reall y has payed his dues. P.S. Rosenberg I got a great idea for a pro wrestling radio show
This is the interview that change my mind about you Miz, I totally understand you and identify with you, I know what it is that your critics are not only the people in general, are also your family. And your right after all this time you must feel like...I DID IT, in your face...! I do identify with you man...GREAT INTERVIEW!!!
I have a lot of respect for The Miz he worked hard to get where he is today. I'm glad he proved everyone wrong and realized his dream of being wwe champion.
How can someone hate the Miz?? He deserves it to be the Champ because he worked for everything he got!! And he is entertaining!! Even if ppl hate him, they know him!!
I was thinking the exact same thing when I saw that clip. Bryan was wrestling Japanese legends infront of sixty thousand people inside the Tokyo Dome. When it comes to pure wrestling abilities, the guy has done it all, and above "all". This shit aside, I have tremendous respect for the Miz (whatever that's worth lol) because of the shit he had to take and the rejections he had to suffer. Great guy.
The Miz has become one of the best talkers in the business, one of the most charismatic (in and out of the ring) and he does a load of public appearances. It's amazing to think how terrible everyone used to find him (and honestly, he did used to be pretty terrible. especially with that whole 'hoo-rah' schtick). But now look at him. WWE Champion, set to become a future Hall Of Famer. It's this blatant improvement he's made over the past few years that makes him so.. well.. AWWEESOOMMME!!
The Miz is The only reason I still watch the WWE He had some many haters from the wwe universe and the locker room saying he wouldn't make it in the wwe, that he would never be a champion. Well guess what, he proved all of them and he won the united states championship,MITB and then became wwe champion he has accomplish so much in the wwe he deserves more than anyone else in the locker room.
Man, I feel sorry for him that he had to go through that. I always thought he was a great guy, but now, I see him as something different. Good for him.
This make me sad how the wrestlers treated him. I thought I'd never say this but...he's AWESOME. I use to hate this guy but now I have SOOO much respect for him.
i love this guys since the challenge real world vs road rules, this guy was like the rock of that show ( funny as fuck and a badass, maybe the best ever of that tv show) and he was always cutting promos before the elimination round and i always imagining what would be him on wwe... the irony is that he leave the show and now he is on we being buried and i wish that he never leaved the challenge
miz deserves it...since his days in 'tough enough' till now its been 10 long years, he is definitely better than john cena or batista at wrestling .. and He is awesome on the mic
People need to respect miz...great guy, always up for interviews and all show No wonder he has the wwe title, he has more passion than john cena for the wwe if not equal.. im sure cena will let miz over at wm27
I fucking luv everythin about this guy. Definitely 1 of my role models. I talked 2 him both on TV (we were dissing Cena together, it was awesome ... he was awesome) & when cameras were OFF and he was always a class act, a professional, very funny & cool guy, just a WONDERFUL person. He cares about his fans, he really does. To everyone who thinks dat Cena cares the most about fans - BULLSHIT. Cena is a piece of shit who act like a nice guy when cams r ON. Miz is da real deal. The MAN. The FUTURE!
He isn't playing his character..He is his character this is actually him. And i know it can sometimes be annoying but still I love his character so it doesn't annoy me!
i luv the miz he's my 2nd fav suprstar in da wwe my first is randy orton so in da ladder money in da bank i waz happy if eather 1 of dem won den randy orton won da wwe champ title i waz so happy but wen miz won i waz a bit bummed but happy at da sme time but now i want him to retain da title for a couple of months so the ppl who h8 him start to lk nd respect him!!! soz tis is so long :D i luv The Miz nd he is Awesome!!!! :*
the miz deserves to be champion of the WWE is very good fighter I respect a lot said her parents believed that it will not achieve anything in the WWE champion and now look at him
You know what's sad? Be A Star, then you have wrestlers bullying this nigga. I didn't like him as WWE champ but he has a better look now I'd like to see him there again. But yeah you're right going throw that is respect.
i don't give a shit about wrestling, but people hate on miz for the wrong reasons. he wasn't a dick on reality tv, he was actually humble and kept talking about wwe being his dream. i haven't heard about that lockerroom story so that was sad.
@loosey5 Because even though it's scripted the pain they feel in the ring is real. Don't fall into the whole "just because it's scripted it isn't real" mindset. It still takes skill to fall the way they do, do the moves so it doesn't hurt them or their opponents, and when you consider the injuries that Mick Foley, Terry Funk, Bret Hart, Flair, Hunter, and Shawn has had you would think twice about that mindset.
I respect the Miz. Don't get me wrong i did hate him, and his background from reality was part of that, but hes a good worker, hes great on the microphone, has such a great heel character, maybe isn't the best face wrestler but you've gotta see it as when he turns heel again it will be great.
@tttwas yes but what i mean't was even though there was alot of talent, there was near enough the same amount of actual wrestling as there is now. Don't get me wrong I prefer the attiude era as you said it was edgier and had brilliant storylines.
@fitzgerald434 I totally respect your opinion. Sadly the mic work is all that matters to WWE because thats what makes you marketable. Austin, Hogan, The Rock, Cena. None of them are/were the best technical wrestlers in the ring. Cena has 5 moves of doom, hogan had 2, Austin had 2 or 3, and the Rock had 4 or 5 as well. They could all talk though, and that is why I think Miz does deserve the title. He talks smack so well that people will pay to see him lose.
I really want WWE to End this coming Year They can have The Sets Inside from WWE For IWE with There Same Entrence Videos on Titantrons We Need WWF Back this Coming Year right now.
@Heavyweightchampionx Agreed, Miz is number three on the mic. right now. The only two others who are better are Chris Jericho and CM Punk. Jericho because heel or face he can get anyone behind him, and CM Punk, because if you watch his promo when he was in Chicago, he actually managed to get his own hometown to turn on him. also, The Miz has come on leaps and bounds in wrestling ability.
You know for people to hate the charecter the Miz is fine but to hate the real person is stupid this guy has loved wrestling his whole life worked hard to get to where he was wasnt handed shit and has gotten better since hes got there I mean Cena walked in and was a superstar within a year and everyone loved him but Miz is a much better wrestler i dont get it you dont have to like him but the guy deserves some respect!
He really deserves this championship and I'm glad he's proved everyone wrong. I can't believe how bad ppl were to him in the locker room though. That's so shitty =|. Either way, he's awesome and I love his passion for what he does and I hope he's champion for long :) ~Jade808~
Now will all you Miz haters give the man his respect, the guy is a WWE fan/wrestler who worked his ass off to the top, what more is there else to say?.
@whoo689 The only reason the miz or any other new wrestlers are'nt getting a chance to go to the heights of the wrestlers you named is because people like you can't let go of the past. Stone cold, HBK have gone people need to move with the times, the miz has what it takes to become legendary as he's young, got personality and what stone cold pointed out in him as the heart to not give up, dudes got it. I mean in all seriousness the rock was not much better in the ring than alot of of midcarders.
When i first heard him tlk n saying im the WWE Champion like 200x's i was like stop gloating but after i heard that story i was like wow u have a reason I feel bad for The Miz
the miz likes 2 stay in character in interviews he does the old school never break character thing wrestlers use 2 do watch him and john Morrison interviewed by tom green its classic tom green is a troll himself and caught on so he went along with it type "The Miz and John Morrison on Tom Greens House Tonight" into youtube search you will not regret it
I kinda get teary eyed when I hear this interview! I can & im sure lots of people trying to break out into any kind of entertainment industry can totally relate to this guy! This guy has worked so hard to get where he is at. His words & story is very inspiring!
I respect the HELL outta the Miz, from everything hes been thru in the locker room to get to where he is, it takes a LOT of Focus, determination and character! Love this guy
The Miz... whether you love him, or you hate him, there is one thing that you have to admit...
He always... stays in character.
he has always been the biggest WWE fan. its great to see him go on to main even wrestlemania. What a great story in the Miz.
He marked out so hard when he talked about Bret Hart. He's one of us. Totally love the Miz in this.
This interview was AWESOME!!!!!
GREAT INTERVIEW!
Cool to see Miz marking out. That's awesome. Good for him. Miz can actually wrestle. Good for him.
I didn't really like The Miz, but now I see how dedicated he is, and how AWESOME he is, in and out of the ring. I'm glad he made it to the WWE title, and hope he becomes better and better, and earn more respect from the WWE Universe. Nowadays, I can see how hard-working he is.

Great interview, he's paid his dues.
This is the interview that change my mind about you Miz, I totally understand you and identify with you, I know what it is that your critics are not only the people in general, are also your family. And your right after all this time you must feel like...I DID IT, in your face...! I do identify with you man...GREAT INTERVIEW!!!
Great interview.
I have a lot of respect for The Miz he worked hard to get where he is today. I'm glad he proved everyone wrong and realized his dream of being wwe champion.
That last bit when he's talking about how he got kicked out of the locker rooms breaks my heart every time...
He seems so much nicer in the interview than he is on WWE. Awesome
How can someone hate the Miz??
He deserves it to be the Champ because he worked for everything he got!!
And he is entertaining!! Even if ppl hate him, they know him!!
miz has improved so much :) i love him
this ineerview is awesome
I was thinking the exact same thing when I saw that clip. Bryan was wrestling Japanese legends infront of sixty thousand people inside the Tokyo Dome. When it comes to pure wrestling abilities, the guy has done it all, and above "all".
This shit aside, I have tremendous respect for the Miz (whatever that's worth lol) because of the shit he had to take and the rejections he had to suffer. Great guy.
i love the miz. always have, always will. along with a heap of respect! :D
I hope I'll be able to see The Miz as the good guy someday and john cena as the heel. This guy deserve the cheers from the crowd, he is AWESOME!
The Miz has become one of the best talkers in the business, one of the most charismatic (in and out of the ring) and he does a load of public appearances.

Proud of you Miz, YOU GOTTA RESPECT IT
The Miz is The only reason I still watch the WWE He had some many haters from the wwe universe and the locker room saying he wouldn't make it in the wwe, that he would never be a champion. Well guess what, he proved all of them and he won the united states championship,MITB and then became wwe champion he has accomplish so much in the wwe he deserves more than anyone else in the locker room.
Great interview, miz is a very good guy! AWESOME!
I think the same thing of him about Bret! :)
you gota respect the miz, he knows hes good and getting better, but he's humble too...good luck to him...
I respect him now so much more!
Man, I feel sorry for him that he had to go through that. I always thought he was a great guy, but now, I see him as something different. Good for him.
This make me sad how the wrestlers treated him. I thought I'd never say this but...he's AWESOME. I use to hate this guy but now I have SOOO much respect for him.
This made me feel so bad for the Miz. Glad he's living his dream.
Hes in character, he switched back and forth many times. especially when he was talking about Bret and Shawn.
this just makes me like him more !
whether you love him or you hate him, you gotta admire the man! The Miz's arrogance is just an act anyway, he's brilliant to watch!
this kid really does deserves that belt. hope he has a good career in the E
The Miz is awesome
i love this guys since the challenge real world vs road rules, this guy was like the rock of that show ( funny as fuck and a badass, maybe the best ever of that tv show) and he was always cutting promos before the elimination round and i always imagining what would be him on wwe... the irony is that he leave the show and now he is on we being buried and i wish that he never leaved the challenge
yeah!!
looking forward to his face turn.. looks good so far
hes great!
daniel bryan and miz both earned their respect and make great heels
miz deserves it...since his days in 'tough enough' till now its been 10 long years, he is definitely better than john cena or batista at wrestling .. and He is awesome on the mic
I love Evan Bourne. Your dad has good tastes :)
Love you too, just had to give little Evan a shout out as well.
Very deserving!
People need to respect miz...great guy, always up for interviews and all show
No wonder he has the wwe title, he has more passion than john cena for the wwe if not equal..
im sure cena will let miz over at wm27
GO MIZZY!!
I fucking luv everythin about this guy. Definitely 1 of my role models. I talked 2 him both on TV (we were dissing Cena together, it was awesome ... he was awesome) & when cameras were OFF and he was always a class act, a professional, very funny & cool guy, just a WONDERFUL person.

The MAN. The FUTURE!
He worked hard and earned what he has, can't begrudge the guy that.

He isn't playing his character..He is his character this is actually him. And i know it can sometimes be annoying but still I love his character so it doesn't annoy me!

He isnt a heel any more he is AWESOME
AWWEEEESOOMMEEE!!!!
Guys, I'm pretty sure that Miz was in character for about 80% of this interview. Chill.
The Miz is the hardest worker in the WWE by far
I actually thought he was really, really sympathetic as a heel, with the whole "noone told me I can do it BUT I MADE IT!" thing.
the miz deserves to be champion of the WWE is very good fighter I respect a lot said her parents believed that it will not achieve anything in the WWE champion and now look at him
Congrats "RKOHBK" . You must be so dedicated.
i thing miz is way underrated.
The first WWE Champion to say "Like" a lot...
He's the fucking man. God I love him
most respect for the miz. People who watch the show are so dillusional about reality.
He is the best of the world, he is AWESOME xD
this is the kind of stuff that is making me like the miz damn i hate saying that lol
WOW, i respected this guy when he cashed in on randy but i respect him even mre after the shit he's gone through
You know what's sad? Be A Star, then you have wrestlers bullying this nigga. I didn't like him as WWE champ but he has a better look now I'd like to see him there again. But yeah you're right going throw that is respect.
I wish the interviewer would allow Miz to finish ONE fucking answer without interrupting him.
HAHA This guy is HILARIOUS!
YOU FUCKING TELL THEM MIZ!!
He only said that because Miz likes to somewhat stay in character.
i don't give a shit about wrestling, but people hate on miz for the wrong reasons. he wasn't a dick on reality tv, he was actually humble and kept talking about wwe being his dream. i haven't heard about that lockerroom story so that was sad.

Jesus,Miz is in more interviews than Cena xD
I respect the Miz. Don't get me wrong i did hate him, and his background from reality was part of that, but hes a good worker, hes great on the microphone, has such a great heel character, maybe isn't the best face wrestler but you've gotta see it as when he turns heel again it will be great.
WOW never thought miz can be nice will who cares he's awesome and he desirve that wwe champion
@tttwas yes but what i mean't was even though there was alot of talent, there was near enough the same amount of actual wrestling as there is now. Don't get me wrong I prefer the attiude era as you said it was edgier and had brilliant storylines.
Miz: Bad wrestling skills - Great Microphone skills
@fitzgerald434 I totally respect your opinion. Sadly the mic work is all that matters to WWE because thats what makes you marketable. Austin, Hogan, The Rock, Cena.

@OtakuHereAndThere well of course, it's hard to find him out of character, ya just gotta find that little 9 minute michael side instead of the miz.
He really deserves this championship and I'm glad he's proved everyone wrong. I can't believe how bad ppl were to him in the locker room though. That's so shitty =|. Either way, he's awesome and I love his passion for what he does and I hope he's champion for long :)

MIZ.
It's not degrading
Man ur a star wherever ur gunna take a shit
@loosey5 when did he do that?
A talent which WWE for some reason decided to bury once he lost that championship and he's never recovered from it.
did the miz stay in character for this?
the miz likes 2 stay in character in interviews
he does the old school never break character thing wrestlers use 2 do
watch him and john Morrison interviewed by tom green its classic
tom green is a troll himself and caught on so he went along with it
type "The Miz and John Morrison on Tom Greens House Tonight"
into youtube search you will not regret it
Mizard is a Pussy.
No, he sometimes or very often does it on purpose. I met him a couple of times but he's a nice guy when he's not 'in character'. :)
Daniel Bryan can really thank the Miz so much. I think his Heel Persona now is very much based on The Miz in terms of arrogance.
Is he always in character?
I would print and hang the Hitman's textmessage on my wall
I've been a mizfit since the real world.
