Maybe it’s time to change. The Miz has been around for a long time, likely a lot longer than most people expected him to last in WWE. He’s won a ton of championship and accomplishments, but one of the dark spots on his record was his less than stellar run as a good guy several years back. Miz has been a bit better received as of late, and there’s a chance that WWE might be trying again.
After this week’s SmackDown Live, Miz fought Daniel Bryan in a dark match. The Miz was cheered and worked as a face throughout the match, which he ultimately lost when Bryan kicked him low. It should be noted that the match took place in Los Angeles, where Miz is billed from. There is no word on if this is a one off thing or an experiment for the future.
Here’s the full match via fan cam:
Opinion: I’ve been a big Miz fan for a long time but I’m a little hesitant about this. Miz is one of the best heels in wrestling and has been for years, which might not translate that well to working as a face. That being said, how many times has Miz been told that he can’t pull something off and yet he manages to do it just fine anyway? This could be interesting, but I’m a bit skeptical about where things are going.
Do you want to see Miz as a face? Will he ever be World Champion again? Let us know in the comments below.
