Why Miz?
By Scott Keith on September 1, 2013
Dear Scott,
Big fan and all that jazz. I was recently thinking about Miz's WWE title reign and the main event of WrestleMania 27 and how weird the whole deal was. I understand they were setting up Rock/Cena. But considering that the role of Miz could've gone to anybody, why did it go to Miz? Right gay in the right time or did WWE brass really think Miz was going to be an A-Lister?
P.S. 20/20 hindsight and all, how perfect would it have been if Punk had been the heel champ against Cena?
I assume you mean right GUY at the right time. Although that would explain a lot…
But yes, they legitimately thought Miz was going to be an A-lister who could get them big mainstream cred and do talk shows with the belt and stuff. To say that it failed spectacularly would be an understatement, but at least they tried.
