The Miz Buried

[Southwind]

This is the best thing for the Miz he was going nowhere on Raw and odds are he never would have on Smackdown there's a vacant heel role that he could fill an IC title scene to enter and more time to improve let me repeat if you like the Miz today is a happy day !!

On a side note how the heck does John Cena just get killed by Randy Orton and the Legacy yet one second later hoists the Miz up for an attitude adjustment ? Am I Cena bashing nope it's just another example of lazy booking which I've been told doesn't exist.

 

[Nate DaMac]

I'm actually quite ashamed of myself. I started this thread, and now I feel the total opposite. Feuding with Cena was the best thing that happened to him. Now he has the opportunity to go to another brand, where his potential has a much better chance of being reached. And now we possibly get a chance to get closure on the Miz and Morrison feud that never panned out.

 

[SSJPhenom]

And all the Cena marks say that Cena put the Miz over. I wish someone would tell me how. Yes, Miz was in the main event for two weeks because he was facing Cena and thats it. Now look at him. He couldn't even cut it as a mid carder on the flagship show. He will go to SD and likely be a midcarder there aswell, for a while anyway.

 

[PoeticSoul]

Unless the come up with a good feud for him. Maybe with Morrison. I don't see The Miz being in the WWE much longer. The way they fire people. That might have been his last match.

One of the reasons why I don't watch WWE Programming anymore. Can we all admit that we have settled for less? WWE is to wrestling what American Idol is to music, commercialized, gimmicky, and smoke and mirrors.

Are you new to wrestling? Cause the WWE's been this way for over 20 years.

The Miz was buried when he lost to Cena in a beat the clock challenge in what was what always happens between the two, a squash match. What kills is how Cena does it in Superman fashion every time.

John Cena is the wwe's new go to guy. The go to guy buries ppl it happens, look at HHH and Tazz, HHH and Test, The Rock and Billy Gunn, HBK and Owen Hart.

I wait for the day when I can return to watch my beloved WWE Programming, but they continue to push me away, with reasons such as this. What a waste.

If the wwe pushes you away then dont watch it. Degrassi pushed me away and now I dont watch it, Family Matters pushed me away and I stopped watching it, same for WCW and the New York Post. All of these things pushed me away and I stopped contributing to it. Simple as that there's no gun at my head or yours.

 

[HypnotizedHero2010]

the miz has been in somewhat of a feud with the number one face of the wwe john cena. weither you like cena or not u cant deny that he is the number one guy , with all the mercendise and the movies he is in. now the miz was in i think six matches with cena. granted he did lose them all but he did call cena out 4 weeks in a row with out a responce and to him those 4 weeks counted as wins. in his last two weeks on raw he was in the mainevent againt cena. the main event of the number one show against the number one face. even though the miz lost these matches and did look kinda week because of the few tap out finishers i think this all was actually a major push for the miz. now with his move to either ecw or smackdwon, most likey smackdown, i could see him entering a very good feud with another mid-card talent. maybe a feud with morrison??

what do you think? did miz get buried or is he moving up?

 

[RatedRKO93]

Miz did not get buried just for losing a couple matchs to the number 1 guy in the company. Ya sure it didn't look great with the tapout loss's but cena made him look good when they were actually wrestling. If you think about it why would they have cena lose to the miz who is starting to make his way up. It would make cena look weak. So my answer is no he is not buried i do believe he will have a US title run sometime in the near future but i think he will be moved to smackdown at the draft next year. So he is on his way up it'll take time but he'll get there eventually

 

[Paradox]

The Miz hasn't been buried. Whoever thinks that he has doesn't know what they are talking about. Look at what was Miz before his feud with Cena? A tag champ who had done nothing since being apart from Morrison. He was at the bottom of the mid card, and now he's at the top of the mid card and was just in a championship match at night of champions. No the Miz has not been buried he has been raised into someone who people actually care about. Who would be talking about the Miz if it hadn't been for John Cena? No one...

 

[RageBattle]

He wasn't buried, I expect him to move up, maybe not to ME status, but upper-midcard sure. Creative took the time to pit him against the top face in the company, instead of matching Cena in a drawn out feud with Orton/Batista etc. Even as short as it was, I think he achieved some sort of rub just in being in the same match as Cena on the card.

 

[Baller]

Yes but most feuds usually allow both men to battle back in forth with each getting victories over each other. But this feud was just CENA CENA CENA! Cena never even came close to losing in my opinion and that is why the Miz was buried in my opinion.

 

[GeminiJ13]

I think the Miz should go back to ECW or find another tag partner. In ECW he can thrive and build up against the young talent. The Miz should change his name to the MizTake! Raw wasted valuable airtime that even Umaga could have filled with more enthusiasm.

 

[Mr. Steve]

I think the Miz should go back to ECW or find another tag partner.

Right and forego those promos he made, and the fact that he's pushing top mid-card status to ECW, the C show?!

In ECW he can thrive and build up against the young talent.

Again, he's gonna forego a sold run at an IC championship/ECW title to once again build up by using the green guys?

The Miz should change his name to the MizTake!

I'm not touching this at all.

Raw wasted valuable airtime that even Umaga could have filled with more enthusiasm.

And what, give it to Hornswoggle and Chavo? Give it to whom?

The Miz wasnt buried at all! I mean, getting the main event match on the A show is a good thing. You don't need to win to get a rub, and you damn sure don't call it a bury if you lose on the main event match. A bury is you getting jobber status on Superstars. That's a bury!

I mean, the guy has come a long way from an interviewer on Smackdown! he's starting to be more comfortable in his role as the cowardly heel, and he's starting to look like he's going up the pecking order, and he's looking like he belongs there. A solid Mid card title will do him wonders. But you can't say "send him to this show and have him build up against the younger talent." that's stuff that Kane does, and Kane isn't that high on the card.

The Miz is the type of heel that, in the match against Cena on Raw, there was no way you would've expected him to win. For God's sake, it's Cena! The golden boy of the WWE! That match wasn't a job or a bury in no way shape or form.

If anything, this is a chance for Miz to have a little elbow room, since RAW is way too cluttered with mid card guys. My guess is that Miz heads to Smackdown, and gets an IC run, and works his way from there.

The Miz shot up from bottom of the mid card to the top of it. He's not going to be this guy that wows WWE Managment at every turn, and receive the Lesnar treatment. If anything, I'd say he paid his dues for now. Who's to say he fucks up and gets punished, God Forbid.

But for now, The Miz is finally free from the Clusterfuck roster that is RAW.

 

[Mr. TM]

I have been impressed with the Miz for the last year. In fact, I stopped watching wrestling around the time he started to job to Cena over and over. What is a lose against the Miz for Cena? He lost to K-Fed. If he gave the Miz that one great match, and had the Miz go over, then the Miz would instantly become a big guy in the WWE, and Cena would still be the same man. In fact, Cena could lose the match, and go on and win the title later that night and no one would question it. They should have given the guy more time to improve.

 

[Tastycles]

The Miz has not been buried, get some perspective. The Miz has been in a feud with John Cena. That is better than being half of the people in a feud with Shannon Moore and Jimmy Wang Yang, which is exactly where he was a year ago. The only qualm I have with what has happened recently, is that his final defeat could have been a little less all odds against Cena, and a little more, level playing field, narrow defeat, much like their second encounter.

Now he's off the brand, great. It means Swagger can move to his old spot as main midcard heel, and Masters can fill the generic midcard heel role, which is great for the brand, because Swagger is the future. Meanwhile, The Miz can go one of two ways. Either back to ECW, where he can become a serious contender to a major singles title, something he has still never won, or he can go to Smackdown, and now that people care about him, have a decent PPV feud with John Morrison, thus completing his development. Miz is very much in a better place now than he was before the draft, and a much better place than this time last year, so to say he's been buried is extremely narrowminded.

 

[RageBattle]

Yeah despite what happened to him, he has still been in more main events recently then, lets see: MVP, Kofi Kingston, Shelton Benjamin, Dolph Ziggler, the Colons, Jack Swagger and probably more. All these guys in the midcard that the IWC are marks for. Now you could easily argue he has done more then them.

I don't count Morrison becuase he has 2 wins on Punk and the recent bout with Hardy.

 

[GameOver]

One problem his WWE profile had been removed which is usually a sign that someone has been fired, however given most stuff gets spread over the internet b4 it happens iof they give any indication of there plans, they may be jsut waiting til next week or the week after SummerSlam when he can appear on one of the shows and the story will continue.

He shined in that fued IMO, he made Cena look really bad in all but the last 2 matches they had. and The Mix isn't that good. though he has picked up his game since going solo again.

He could still just go to Smackdown and fued with Morrison or go face again and try to fill Jeff hardy's face spot. Smackdown is still the wrestling show moreso than RAW which would suit him better

Or it could just be a swerve, since Piven went heel they can say that the stippulations were bogus still, or come SummerSlam Miz costs Cena the title and get's reinstated to resume his fued with Cena leading to Surivivor Series or something.

Where maybe he gets a title shot of some description.

Personally they should've pushed him to the IC/US Titles first rather than going straight from Tag to World title scene, but i guess they were short on ME guys to fued with.
