Idea Storyline for The Miz and Alex Riley holding ALL the Belts?

[fb481777]

After watching Alex Riley lose the NXT tournament, I have an idea. What do you all (The Viewing Community & WWE personnnel) think about having the following to take place as a story line *AT THE SAME TIME*:

1). The Miz and Alex Riley become Tag Team Champs
2). The Miz still holds the US title
3). The Miz becomes the World Heavyweight Champion

The Miz and Alex Riley become the ultimate tag team calling themselves...

"The Varsity Champs"!!!!!

I mean, that type of reign does not have to be long, but, think about the push and excitement that would bring. Alex RIley talks a HUGE mic game (almost to perfection) and The Miz is just on the money (Grace of Jesus keeping him of course)

So how about it, what are ya'll's thought process on this?

To me, The Miz and Alex Riley just seem to be a PERFECT MATCH!

 

[JuviJuiceIsLoose]

Hell, no!!!

1st of all, after the shenanigans he pulled on NXT last week. Alex Riley shouldn't be seen on WWE television again for several months.

What happened on Monday Night Raw with him getting owned by Daniel Bryan should be the death of Alex Riley.

He needs to spend at least the next 5 months back down in FCW because he has no awareness. When he does return, it should be a new gimmick.

The next time we see Alex Riley, he should literally be a new man.

As for 2 people holding all the belts in the WWE, that's a horrible idea. Miz and Riley are nowhere near as good to be able to do that.

The last two people to do that was Triple H and Stone Cold, and those other 2 guys aren't even in the same galaxy as Austin and Hunter.

That's a bad idea, a horrible idea, and may god have mercy on your soul!

 

[WJDwjdWJDwjd]

Ew.... absolutely not. I hope this thread gets torn to shreds.

Like the poster above me said, Riley and Miz are NO WHERE NEAR SCSA/HHH status. They are many years away from being that big. I don't mind Riley's gimmick though. It adds to his arrogant asshole aura. It makes him a pure heel. Everybody loves to hate the asshole they grew up with. He should have a decent run in the WWE doing something.

As for this idea... maybe in a few years but not anytime soon. In fact, I don't think we'll see another Two Man Power Trip for a very long time.

 

[Auxlz]

Rlly bad idea.... Miz hardly does anything with the one title he holds now, you want him to hold more to make all titles pointless??

1). The Miz and Alex Riley become Tag Team Champs
2). The Miz still holds the US title
3). The Miz becomes the World Heavyweight Champion

How would they be holding ALL belts, yet only be holding 3 out of the 5 mens belts?

 

[Mitch3721]

It's not the best idea. Riley and Miz are nowhere near the level to hold all of the belts on Raw.

If you were really interested in another power trip, then how about Nexus holding all the titles. We could have Wade Barrett as WWE Champ, Justin Gabriel as US Champ, and David Otunga and Heath Slater as Tag Champs. To me this seems like a much better idea then Miz and Riley holding all of the gold. Nexus are hot right now, and giving them all the straps could push them over the edge.

 

[TxKxAx]

This is the most idiotic idea imaginable(sp?). Alex Riley is crap in the ring and should of never even been on NXT, he's a former FCW Champion, but after watching matches... I have to wonder why and how.

I don't get what people even see in The Miz, i mean he's paid his dues like the older guys had to, but thats really it. Miz has worked to prove everyone wrong, while he is slightly above average on the mic, he just can't put on any stellar matches. I highly doubt he'd be able to have a 5 star match even if Shawn Michaels was carrying him.

This idea is, again, stupid and neither men will ever be near Austin's level or Triple H's. not even Foley's or The Rock's. Riley will do good to gain ANY title in the WWE. Miz, well he has that prop thing over his shoulder that used to be the United States title. He isn't World champion caliber and never will be.

In closing, this is the worst idea i've ever heard, you're obviously too much of a blind fan of Miz and Riley's "bromance" and attraction to each other to think about their qualifications.. or lack thereof.

Side Note: What happened to the real heels? Jericho was the last guy who really grasped what it was to be a heel. Miz is a heel but has a catchphrase that all the fans go along with. If he wants to remain a heel and not turn face(which wouldn't benefit him at all-see John Morrison) he needs to make his promos like his ring work, bland.

 

[cmillsa1]

Id say do it..........my reasoning is that if its gaining this much heat on a forum. Imaging the heat it would give in the ring. Dont have them win clean though, a shot with the belt, some brass knucks something to push their heel status. Now dont let them old them for long like the tags a week and the US title a couple then have Alex screw it up then miz beat the crap out of him.

 

[fb481777]

Holy smokes ya'll! , I did not realize the stir this rang up. To be honest, I'll be the first to admit that I have a little question mark about the skill-set ability of Alex Riley in the ring. Do I think Alex Riley is off? Heck no, Riley still has it and is not bad. Unfortunately, I did not see the Raw episode due to my current location. It was that bad hu? Well, I still love hearing Alex Riley talk and The Miz rock the house!

Should the NExus hold all the belts? HECK NO!!!!! I can't stand them enough as it is, I find Nexus quite boring! BUT, and this is a BIG BUT, since Nexus has stopped Gang Jumping everyone, I have been more entitled to want to see more of the Nexus group. And I did love what I read about that one guy from Nexus coming back from being kicked out and RKO'ing Barrett! haha.

Anyways, The Miz and Riley, I still say pump those 2 up with championships, put the spot-light on them, and watch those 2 shine! Might surprise everyone.

 

[vampirek]

Well it will never happen seeing nobody has ever been allowed to hold a World Title and a midcard title in the WWE. The only man to do it, Warrior was forced to drop the IC title and RVD dropped the IC title weeks before becoming WWE champion. I doubt they will change their stance on this.

Not just that but The Miz has had plenty of gold in the last year and done very little with it. Putting three belts on him, you might as well unify the lot because very little will happen.

Miz doesn't need to be in a tag team anymore, that stage of his career is over and having the MITB he has more potential than to be carrying Riley along with him.

If they do keep hold a Riley (How many of these NxT are going to be on Raw, you might as well rename Raw to NxT!) then the chances are he'll feud with Danielson in the coming months for the US title and job for the whole amount of time.

 

[NWannabe]

I like what cmills says. You want a guy to be hated. Have him get over on Orton and Cena and even Sheamus as those douches who cheat their way to wins. It doesn't even have to be a long reign and when it comes crashing down, you can have Miz and Riley turn on each other, calling the other one a failure.

 

[D-Man]

This idea is such shit that the entire forum smells like feces. I just can't stop facepalming at this idea.

First of all, why the FUCK would the Miz need to change his gimmick? By becoming the "Varsity Champs" that would mean he would take on Alex Riley's gimmick. How wrong is this?? Let me count the ways...

First of all, the Miz is one of the most over superstars on the roster with his OWN gimmick. Why would he take on a ROOKIE'S gimmick? Believe it or not, Alex Riley is not nearly as well-known as you probably think since NXT's ratings have been in the toilet. Secondly, how many more times does the Miz need a tag championship? Thirdly, Alex Riley has been in the WWE for about 10 minutes and you want to slap a tag belt on him, especially after the design was just revamped and they're being held by a legitimate tag team right now?

Stop begging for factions, people! They don't need more of them. We already have some established tag teams and the Nexus. Shit, even the WOMEN have a faction right now in Laycool. What more do you guys need?

Please people... for the love of God... mention your awful fantasy bookings to your friends at school. Tell your parents. Confess them in church. Write an anonymous letter to Vince McMahon. But please... keep them out of this forum. There are too many intelligent people here who don't wish to lose braincells by reading them.

I will agree with the gimmick change not needed for The Miz, but why wouldn't giving Riley the tag belts with the Miz work for Riley?

The guy is new, sure, but right now the current tag champs aren't even on TV... Santino and Kozlov get more tv time than they do. Why not give the titles to two people who are used regularly on Raw? Not only that, but this would give Riley a chance to generate heat off a top heel already in the Miz, much like the Miz generating off of Jericho earlier this year and Morrison in their initial tag run.

I'm not saying The Miz should be put back into a tag team role, but Riley being partnered with Miz isn't such a bad idea to give him some rub.

And NXT Ratings aren't as low as one may think... you have to figure there's still literally MILLIONS that watch NXT so Millions of people know who Riley is.

Anything would work for Riley right now. The guy's greener than a football field. No denying that.

What you're saying makes sense but I think your radar's off a bit. What you and the OP are asking for is a MAJOR setback for the Miz. The WWE is currently trying to push new talent. While Riley definitely falls into that category, you all seem to forget that Miz is in there, too. There is no way that the WWE would agree to regress the Miz in order to push Riley. And that's what this idea would do.

There are a million other ways for Riley to get a push. Just his association with the Miz does this already. There is no need to knock one top star down in order to elevate another.

I'm not saying The Miz should be put back into a tag team role,

Actually, that's exactly what you're saying. That's the point of this horrible idea, no?

but Riley being partnered with Miz isn't such a bad idea to give him some rub.

He doesn't need to be in a legitimate tag team with the Miz to get a rub. Give it time. I'm sure they have plenty of plans for Riley that don't include hurting the Miz's credibility by shoving him back into a tag team for the THIRD time.

And NXT Ratings aren't as low as one may think... you have to figure there's still literally MILLIONS that watch NXT so Millions of people know who Riley is.

Actually, the WWE is broadcasted in over 500 million homes worldwide every year. And one million watch NXT. If you were standing in a room with 500 other people, do you really think you'd stand out? That's the effect that NXT is having on the WWE's market right now. So, in reply to your previous statement, not as many people know Riley as you might think.

Echo.

We just had a similar thread recently. The main difference was that The Miz was the Champ while Riley gained the US title (as a "hand-me-down" I guess?). Of course they also were up for a Tag title run…

Look by no means am I saying all "What If…" and/or "Here's my idea…" booking threads are terrible. Most of them? Sure. But not all. Could we at least put a temporary moratorium on "The Miz & Riley Super Happy Fun Time Every Belt EVER!!!1! Team Group WWE Stable #1!" idea?

It's been done to death since NXT2 began and really you should all go search the boards for the older posts and just throw up your ideas on there. New posts with your iteration of the same concept really aren't all that necessary.

 

[Ferbian]

This has to be one of the most idiotic threads I have ever read in the WWE section. I got to hand that to you, really.

Miz and Alex holding all the championships would fuck up the prestige of them all, besides it would fuck up the roster and Pay Per View matches.

Would you want to see Alex and Miz only defending one championship at the time, while neglecting the other ones? We know that the world championship will always be defended, and Alex can't tag with himself, so the tag team division would be screwed to bits. The majority of the divisions would be screwed to bits because they would have to either fight numerous fights, or they would need to defend less championships.

The Pay Per Views would get fucked as well, considering while non-title feuds are interesting at times. The title feuds are definitely where it belongs, no matter what. WWE always puts focus into their title matches, so why would they screw that up by giving less championships to be defended?

Overall, this would be the most horrific move the WWE could do, and this forum would explode with hatred without a doubt.

 

[Rayne]

Oh, yeah, the Miz is *totally* ready be the company centerpiece and hold all of a brand's titles. I mean, Kurt Angle made it work in TNA, why wouldn't The Miz be able to make it work in the WWE?

There have been worse ideas. Germany opening up the eastern front during World War II; Napoleon's decision to camp in Moscow, Scientology, but this is a top 10.

 

[billm75]

Wow, alot of hate for a "what if" thread. It's fine if you disagree, I'm a huge Miz mark and I disagree too, but I'm not about to slam the OP for it. Even the Mods get nasty about it, do you all take your wrestling that personally?

Miz would be fine with the WWE Title, but he needs to drop the US title, and let someone defend it. In fact, if he loses it to Daniel Bryan at NOC, having Miz try to get his revenge for a few months would be a great way to keep him in everyone's minds and allow him to build a bit more credibility before taking over the top title.

Riley has the charisma, plays his character well and all, but I don't see the need to team him up with Miz. Like others said, just being around Miz and acting as his lackey will do enough to elevate him into Mid Card status soon enough.

I LOL'ed at comparing Miz to Kurt Angle. I'm not that familar with TNA, but Kurt Angle will always be greater than The Miz. The Kurt Angle I remember was just as good if not a better heel than Miz, and he could actually put on a damn good match.

 

[I_Am_Electro_Boy]

I would say this is possibly the worst idea I've ever seen on these forums. Even my mixed tag title idea wasn't as bad as this (some might disagree; a lot of people hated this idea), but I know what it's like to have people hate your idea on these threads so I'm not going to join in and bash this idea (much) . But it is a pretty damn stupid idea, would it really be realistic to have The Miz hold every belt on Raw (remember there's still the IC and World titles on SD)? Also having one person having all the gold would be stupid especially The Miz, I mean they might as well all be unified if The Miz holds them all.

 

[Ace333]

If anyone in the business today was able to do this it would only be Cena and Orton and even this will never happen. No two superstars will ever do this again after HHH/Austin

1). The Miz and Alex Riley become Tag Team Champs
2). The Miz still holds the US title
3). The Miz becomes the World Heavyweight Champion

The Miz and Alex Riley become the ultimate tag team calling themselves...

"The Varsity Champs"!!!!!

I mean, that type of reign does not have to be long, but, think about the push and excitement that would bring. Alex RIley talks a HUGE mic game (almost to perfection) and The Miz is just on the money (Grace of Jesus keeping him of course)

So how about it, what are ya'll's thought process on this?

To me, The Miz and Alex Riley just seem to be a PERFECT MATCH!

Mmm, I don't really like it... The Miz has the mic skills and the charisma, and both of them have the cockiness and brashness to make this good. Problem is their in ring skills I would describe as decent, to make this work for me their in-ring skills would have to be great. Otherwise I just could not see them credibly holding and defending all the belts.

 

[MWRedskins]

one word, NO!!!!!!!! Miz (when he holds two titles) forgets that he has more than one belt and the other title he has becomes forgotten. As for Riley, i WANT him on Smackdown signed by Vickie Guerrero behind Long's back and have him being a star on Smackdown within 3 months, As for Miz, let him lose the US title to Bryan then have Miz go after the WWE title and on Smackdown, let Riley go after the World title when Undertaker wins it.

 

[Wade's Public Transit Bomb]

Now, I think The Miz is damn good at whatever he does. He has really improved leaps and bounds this past year. He is great on the mic, his matches are good, and he has great heat. I think he is the right guy for a second tier title, but I don't think he has the "it" factor to build a brand around. I just think people are overstating the Miz's star power.

Not everyone needs, should or can be a main eventer, you know.

 

[vampirek]

If anyone in the business today was able to do this it would only be Cena and Orton and even this will never happen. No two superstars will ever do this again after HHH/Austin

Hmm I disagree, take HBK and HHH (yes before HHH/Austin). Those two men could have easily held the WWF, European and Tag Titles together and HHH was still green. However the two look legit, so there isn't anything preventing it happening again if you get the right mix.
Rated RKO for example or Rated Y2J could have done something similar to HHH/Austin

 

[SydTinDad]

The originator of this thread should be the star of an after school special about why people should not do drugs.

This is perhaps the most moronic....................AND THE ROCK MEANS..............moronic idea I have ever heard since I read that someone actually thought that Regal's "REAL MAN'S MAN" gimmick had merit.

Riley is a complete douche who is greener than my grandma's teeth and Miz has a belt that is being wasted, and people like me could give a shit less about an old defunct WCW piece of hardware anyway.

Dude, lay off the crack pipe.
