I love that Miz's face gimmick only works agianst someone who is a better heel than him or they pair with someone super likeable. Dude is a natural heel.

[@aujbinfaisal]

One of the best heels in the business

[@SilentHotdog28]

It's because Miz is a natural at being a Heel, he's not a dick in person, he's just got that brash sort of (at times obnoxious) attitude, some people wouldn't like it, but I love it, when he's a heel, he just turns the dial up, for him to be a face, he is unsure of what to do at times, but I love seeing him as a face.

[@johnfloyd1892]

@SilentHotdog28 for sure. I've been a fan of the guy since he won the MITB back in 2010. Definitely a super humble guy outside of the WWE it's just funny to me that legit some wrestlers can really only work the one gimmick.

[@SilentHotdog28]

@@jasonsingh3203 Yeah but at times in the past it was gimmicky and forced, it was Vince's way.......this is more natural, both (especially Miz) are allowed to be themselves and do it their way, with their ideas and it comes off so much better.

Absolutely awesome truth 👏🏾 🙌🏾 👍🏾 👌🏿 ❤️

[@ozzybloke-craig3690]

Triple H is doing what Vince would not. Making sure guys like Miz and Truth get the respect they deserve. The wrestling industry feels good again, and not like a one side open and the other side fake or closed or hidden. It feels less corporate and more fan oriented. I was soo done with WWE in the last few years. I was big for AEW. Ans now Triple H has restored my faith in WWE, WWE Management, WWE Content and the Wrestling/Matches/Outcomes of WWE, as well as the handling of talent and storylines. Thank You Triple H. You are The GOAT! The Game has changed The Game!

[@Ay3shizzle]

Me too I can happily say I'm back as a WWE fan again as well.

[@bosstourtv8232]

I'm so glad The Miz got atleast one good babyface run, he's been a career heel pretty much for two decades because he plays the role so well. He's worked his ass off for this and is reaping the rewards, he always comes across as a humble and likable guy in interviews too.

[@SilentHotdog28]

He has had babyface runs, but they tend to be brief and not that meaningful. I'm loving this one.

[@Topo-yq3uh]

HHH SHOULD GIVE THEM A HEALTHY LONG TITLE RUN

[@davidmcaninch4714]

I can just imagine how hilarious Truth’s WWE Hall of Fame speech would be!!! It’d be hilarious if he came out and said the he was honored to be inducted in the Hall of Fame, but he says something along of the Football Hall of Fame, or Baseball Hall of Fame, or even the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame!!!! Then Miz would come up and whisper in his ear that it was the WWE Hall of Fame, and Truth would be like “….*HUH?!?!?!?* You sure?????? Ooooohh!!!!! The WWE Hall of Fame!!! That’s on me!!! My bad!!!!” And then he’d give his speech and everything!!

[@danielyankun3605]

I want to see him cash in for the womens tag championships and be the solo womens tag champ or pull up to WWE headquarters and cash in on the security guard at the warehouse they keep the 24/7 championship to bring that back.

[@SilentHotdog28]

@@danielyankun3605 How about they have multiple moments where he gets confused, one moment it's a women's match, one minute it's he cashes in on Dwayne and takes his people's championship, one minute it's WWE headquarters where he gets the 24/7 championship and each time they have to overturn the cash in and give him the briefcase back. Then one day he turns up on TNA and cashes in on their Heavyweight Champion, then the TNA manager has to come out and say "What the hell are you doing? You're at wrong company." This all goes on for months, then finally he cashes in on the World Heavyweight Champion and wins it. I think he deserves it, plus it would be a great story, I mean tell me you don't want to see it.

I personally like Mizalot hes a very underrated wrestler and it might not have been the best thing ever but I also was a big fan of his short stint as a babyface with the IC title. one of the greatest iC champs in history!

Miz has come a long way since his debut, from being bullied to being a mentor/leader in the locker room. He’s proof that you don’t have to be a champion to be able to tell stories in wrestling.

[@angelariley3082]

Miz is my absolute favorite star. I've watched him since Real World. This was his dream way back then and people laughed. He didn't get the respect he deserved when he got here. He had done every single thing asked of him and even managed to stay on TV with his knee injured. Has more heart than that locker room! Greatest grandslam champ ever

100% and it was with the perfect person too, because even though Miz got to have past Wrestlemania moments, I think they were all as a Heel if I'm not mistaken, he finally got to have a big babyface moment.

Finally. 2 of the most underrated wrestlers in WWE getting the love and appreciation they deserve. They deserve it all. Give these guys their flowers. I'm so happy with the new champs we have.

[@lancea1202]

@@SilentHotdog28 im with you, brother. I agree. Triple H being head of creative changed a lot of things. I used to hate WWE for being boring, cringey, predictable and downright trash. What we see now with this new era are great storytelling and making you invested and connected to it.

[@adrenalineunlimited]

For those that don't know, R-Truth has the most championships in the history of major American wrestling promotions, was the first black nwa world champion, and has won tag, US, hardcore, and 24/7 titles in the wwf/e. Ron Killings is one of the greatest professional wrestlers to have ever lived. R-Truth is the perfect guy to challenge Damian Priest for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship

[@theonlymatthew.l]

I agreed with you a 💯 until that last sentence. In his current character, Ron shouldn't sniff a world championship.

Undertaker showing up also makes sense because it's WRESTLEMANIA. The people complaining about not getting Stone Cold must have forgotten who exactly was the main attraction of WrestleMania year after year. It ain't Austin.

That is very true. It's also Undertaker showing Rock only he's the true final boss in WWE and the real guy and there's a reason why he was feared and respected by many wrestlers and a locker room leader back then.
