He's In Charge: Former WWE Champion Set To Host WrestleMania 39

It’s a gig. WrestleMania has evolved so much over the years that it is almost nothing like what it was when it first started. The show has gone from little more than a really souped up live event to a stadium filling event that takes place over two nights. Things have gotten so much bigger that it needs someone to keep track of them all, which is what we will have again this year.

IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: Monster Fight: New Match Officially Set For WrestleMania 39

This week on Monday Night Raw, the Miz was announced as the host of WrestleMania 39. The announcement came via the envelope that Miz’s wife Maryse gave him last week. After making the announcement, Miz was attacked by Seth Rollins and left laying. WrestleMania has had a host for the last several years, with names such as Hulk Hogan, Alexa Bliss, Bayley and the New Day serving in the role.

It is a tradition. Check out what the hosts have done over the years:

Opinion: This is the kind of thing that works perfectly for Miz. He already has the Hollywood deal for his regular persona, so why not put him out there in something like this? It fits everything that he needs to do and keeps him talking on the show, where someone can show him up. They got the right idea here and hopefully everything that Miz gets to do is as good as he is capable of pulling off.
