Does anyone else think the Miz's constantly saying that he is the future WWE Champion doom his future?

Think about it. None of the other Mr. Money in the Bank's referred to themselves as future champs. They said they had the opportunity. So do you think the Miz always saying he is the future WWE Champion mean that when he ultimately cashes in he will lose that match?

 

[SpoodBeest]

During that segment he never flat out said he was the future WWE Champion, he said that due to his possession of the briefcase he controls basically the title's future. He then went on to give Sheamus examples of how he could cash in his contract. Many people have flat out said that he will be the first to unsuccessfully cash in his contract I truly don't see it that way.

They will continuously have him tease about cashing in it, as well as boast about holding the briefcase. Treat his run with the MITB like you would title run, minus the amount of defenses if any. Then if he still remains as over as he is, let him cash in after a lengthy run with the briefcase when no one sees it coming. It's share brilliance and I am willing to bet that is the exact road they are going to take with The Miz.

 

[RatedRPiedmont]

He said it in his promo after his attempt to cash it in, and then again tonight on NXT. It seems as if they want everybody to believe he will win, which may be them throwing everybody off.

I think that Miz is going to be the first one to f**k up his MITB title shot...the writing is sort of on the wall already. That doesn't mean that Miz will never be champion; he really will and he should be eventually. I just think that he'll blow it, because he is a little too eager.

 

[RiVaLGaMeR]

The Miz isnt going to mess up his title shot. It wouldnt look right for the MITB winner to lose his chance even if he cheats. If so Kane would have been attacked by the SES if they truely wanted someone to fail. Miz didnt say he was the future champion like that, that would ruin it. He just stated he is hungry and will be watching like everyone else has, if anything Michael Cole is ruining it since he keeps saying it now.

I agree with you on some parts but... I actually think that Miz might be the first to not successfully cash it in. I pray it does not happen but I have a gut feeling it will. WWE I think feels that they need to show that Mitb does not mean you have already won the strap... and I think since there are to Mitb's now they will use one to do this.. and Kane already won it, so....

 

[Brahma Bull]

yeah, i think that he will be the first one to loose. but will just make him hungrier and hopefully give him a more legit (legit in heel terms) title win.

Agreed...MITB has become far too "sure fire" for my liking. Edge won the friggin' Royal Rumble (which is a far more amazing feat), yet Money In The Bank seems to be much more of a guarantee, in terms of winning the actual belt. A MITB winner really needs to f**k up and why not Miz? It's not like it'll hurt his career as he's going to be WWE Champion eventually anyway. In the meantime, he can make for some entertaining television as Sheamus's "stalker".

 

[772Attitude]

No i don't think he will mess it up. The Miz is still a heel and will still sneak attack opponents to get what he wants. More then likely Randy Orton will beat Sheamus, then The Miz will jump Orton, cash in his money in the bank, and win.

 

[xcalypsox]

I'm a huge Miz fan but i too feel like he will be the first to fail at cashing in the briefcase. I see Orton beating sheamus then either Sheamus or Nexus beat down Orton then the Miz run down to cash in then when the bell rings Orton hits an rko out of no place and pin the Miz but hopefully this will lead to a feud where the miz eventually wins the belt.

 

[trashboy]

man, i hope so.. i really hope he's the first one to cash in and then lose.. i can't stand him at all, not because he's heel or whatever, even if he was face.. he'd still be annoying as hell.. he also does not look like champion material to me.. i hope he never wins the title.. but that's just me

 

[Tino571]

Say what you want about the Miz's improvement, but I just don't see him as a World Champion. Granted we've seen some surprise World champs recently (Swagger, Mysterio, Kane, Sheamus) but I just don't think they'll have Miz be their top guy on RAW nonetheless. With HHH returning, Orton, Edge, Jericho, Cena and Sheamus all in the title picture, I don't see Miz getting the title over any of these main eventers. Someone has to screw up with the briefcase eventually, and Mike Mizanin from the Real World is going to be the first

 

[mayankeagle]

Usually, such contracts are only given to superstars when they are going to win the title. The MITB is a way of the WWE to bring in a "twist" in the storyline when something goes wrong, e.g., if the champion gets injured, how do you immediately replace him? Remember 2007 when Undertaker was injured and had to drop the title, so they made Edge win the MITB from Kennedy, then they made Taker face Batista in a steel cage match which was a draw, then Mark Henry assaulted him and Edge cashed in the MITB. That is the kind of opportunity that the MITB is reserved for - to handle exceptional circumstances when you are in need of a new champion. And its usually given to a person who is considered of being a worthy champion in the future, so you can assume safely that when he encashes it, he is destined to win it, otherwise the MITB title will lose its significance and people will lose interest in MITB matches.

 

[mister_b1LL]

Yeah I got a major feeling The Miz is going to be the first MITB winner to lose a cash-in. However I think there is nobody better that could take a loss like this and still come out on top. The Miz is incredibly popular and many people really want him not to win the championship just yet. If and when he loses his title match, it's not so bad. He still has the US Title and he still has his booing fans. Now if somebody who doesn't have as much momentum like Ted Dibiase has won the MITB match, cashed in and lost, it just sinks him farther into his bore hole.

 

[tjmars]

I could definitly see the Randy Orton thing happening. Reality check reversesal into an RKO. Nice.

Yeah it looks as though he will probably fail at winning the title with the briefcase and I'm fine with that. I'd much rather see him build himself up a little before taking the championship.

 

[The Aussie Invasion]

I honestly think that Miz will hold onto the briefcase for a lengthy period of time.

But I can see it now when he cashes it in. He loses the U.S title that night (First match of the night), The WWE Champ has been in a very long or brutal match at a PPV, Miz cashes in and wins. Then he comes out the next night on the next RAW saying how he competed in 2 matches, And although he lost the U.S Title, He won the WWE Title, Because he's the Miz and he's AWESOME!. Enter Sheamus!, Sheamus says he wants his rematch, Miz says yes, and MAYBE sets up a Miz face turn (But not likely).

In my mind, He won't fuck up the cash-in, But he will have lost the U.S Title the same night, Than he can cut a HUGE promo the next RAW and start a Sheamus fued.

 

[mrbooker]

He is losing on his cash in as many have stated MITB has been to much of an obvious title oppurtunity. Same thing was the problem with the royal rumble until recently(past 3 years) every winner would win at mania. To those who say that MITB is used incase people get injured completly wrong! Yes WWE does use the MITB winner to take the place of an injured champ so the champ doesnt lose cleanly if need be. But as it has been proven many times the MITB is the express version of what the IC title meant in 90's its a test run to see if you are ready and can put on good matches.

Those who are saying the Miz is a heel he can cheat to win thats all fine and grand, but here is where the problem comes in Orton, Cena, HHH, Shemus, Edge, Jericho good luck making it believable that Miz can beat these guys. Yea i saw raw and the whole skull crushing finale moment but as far Miz being champion and then defending it against one of these top guys.........

I dont see it, Miz isn't part of a stable, he isn't great in the ring, he isnt one of the larger guys who can overpower more talented wrestlers on the roster. Other then being a heel that constantly gets himself DQ'd i dont see how Miz would just be another win one night then lose on his next defense the other

 

[ThePh3nomonal1]

Wait I have a correction that proves even more to your thoery, that is that Mr Kennedy was the only person I can recall claiming he was a future world champion and look what happened to him.

But hopefully this will not happen, The Miz is over to much and it would hurt his credibility sooo much if he lost when he cashed it in if it was on a downed foe. I really want to see him world champ also.

I don't think the WWE will have that problem. When he cashes in and wins the title (cause believe me, he will), he'll rival someone a bit lower down that the top guys such as Edge, Orton, HHH, etc. However, to say that he just wouldn't beat those guys isn't necessarily true. Look at Jeff Hardy. He was sort of similar to the Miz in the fact that he was a mid-carder for years, but never really compared with the top guys. Then after his title shot at Rumble against Orton, look how much Jeff grew that year, taking on (and beating) the likes of HHH, Edge, even the Undertaker.

Secondly, I don't think anyone will ever cash in the MITB and not win the match. At the moment, MITB is one of the most anticipated matches of the year, because it more or less tells you the future champion. If someone lost their cashed in shot, then it would kill of that importance. Personally, I hope the Miz wins it sooner than later. Its been the same guys winning the WWE title over and over for ages (exception being Shemeus, but even since his first win he's not left the title picture), so to see WWE put the trust in someone else with the top title would be awesome

 

[Dibil]

I sure hope not because i feel the Miz deserves it,he has worked his way up from a nobody to John Morrison's shadow to AWESOME! Lets hope he doesn't lose his cash - in match

 

[Da Prophet]

First off I don't think Miz will be the first to lose his Championship match once he use's his Mony In The Bank.It would really hurt him, if seven times it works and then when he gets his shot it goes wrong what will people say."Oh he lost.....yeah.....", plus Vince McMachon is looking at Miz as he did when Cena was coming up to the Main Event, someone who works hard.Would Vince allow John Cena to lose when he has his shot with Money In The Bank, no so I don't think he would do it to the future of his show.But Miz saying he is a futire Champion dosen't hurt his chance, nearly every superstar says it and look at how many of them are World Champions.

 

[The_Charasmatic_Enigma]

Totally agree Prophet! Miz saying he is a future world champion doesn't mean he won't win it. Look at the 2008 Slammy awards. Again, using Hardy as an example, his exact words were "I WILL be walking out of Armageddon, the NEW WWE CHAMPION". And what did he do?

 

[1_2_3 Kid]

I definitly mentioned this in another thread...

And it would just blow if they had him be the first to lose the case. He has just been so good, and getting over great as a heel. But I wouldn't be surprised if it did happen...

They would be dropping the "Miz" ball way too soon. Everyone counted him out and he worked his ass off, reinvented himself and now is on a crash course with destiny, and to fuck with our minds by having him be built in a good fashion just to be knocked down a peg is fucked up.

I'm hoping I get to see the ME of SS feature Miz. I want to see what he can REALLY do. I love how they teased him cashing it in this past Monday. I just knew something would fuck it up, but my first thought was "oh god, he gunna lose it". Just because of how long he was waiting for Sheamus to get up. And personally I thought Sheamus was "selling" a little too much, making Miz sweat. But come on, he runs from R truth? That was pretty weird to watch for me, but I know it was just to save the breifcase.

Let's hope it keeps playing out good, and we end up seeing Miz with a title run before the fall time gets here.

 

[Y2Jericho]

I agree that his cockyness may be what ultimately costs him when he cashes in. The scenario I have imagined is him dominating until he floors his opponent, he'll probably think he's going to win, taunt the downed champion and then (depending on who said champion is) either get pulled into a roll-up or a finisher. I think that even with the MITB victory, The Miz STILL isn't ready for that title yet. He's gotta watch being injured too, or he'll be dropped just like Kennedy was in 2007. But he will win it eventually, regardless of what happens.

 

[1_2_3 Kid]

So Jack Swagger was ready for the title?

Because I'm convinced that A. Miz is a better wrestler and overall preformer, and B. Jack didn't deserve the MITB last year @ WM. But he got it and look what happened. Very forgettable title run. IMO Miz would just not be forgettable. Maybe just because it would be his first title run ppl wouldn't put to much into it, but he is wayy better on the mic and has a better gimmick, one that's suited for a world champion. I never seen that in Swagger as much as I like they guy. He is athleticaly gifted and has a lot of good qualities, but that lisp is horrible and my opinion, he will never get over with it. Neither will "dashing" cody rhodes. But thats neither here nor there. Don't get me wrong, I was just making a comparision.

I was going to mention before how I could see his cockyness cost him the case. I gotta agree with u there gore, that's the seneario I seen playing out. And after, Miz is throwing a shit fit in the ring demanding a rematch .. but I don't see that happening. WWE put way to much time and effort into molding Miz and I would think you don't waste oppertunities like that.

Miz deserves the push he is getting and I hope we see him grow into his own even more after a title win. It would really let him open up more on the mic about subject matter we haven't heard him talk about and it would also put more of a fresh spin on the ME picture. And ultimatley that's what its all about. Change. Obama said it best my friend. And oh change it is a coming.

He does have to watch for injuries tho as well, as you pointed out look what happened to Kennedy. But being smart in the ring, and trusting the guy across from you is a big factor into not getting hurt. I don't think Miz has any ring problems, as he's worked with damn near everyone on the roster and I haven't heard one complaint about his ringsmanship.

I'm only seeikng and hearing good things from Miz, and I'm glad I'm a part of the new rising of talented stars in the best damn wrestling fed in the world. WWE, you already know what it is ..
