According to several sources within WWE, Michael Cole's PPV commentary tonight about The Miz being "the future of Raw" was a directed line from Vince McMahon, and was a specific line the company will be building on.
The Miz is seen by McMahon as a reliable workhorse, and is making the most of his push by doing as many media days and corporate appearances as possible. Miz has campaigned to be recognized as a "go-to" guy by McMahon, and is now starting to get the rewards of his appearances, media talks, and willingness to devote so much of his time to the company. One person I spoke with said it's the very same way John Cena got over with Vince McMahon, and the similarities are uncanny. "McMahon didn't like Cena at first, but Cena just worked harder than anyone else and won him over with a tireless work ethic," I was told. "The Miz is doing the exact same thing."

So great when you hear that a true wrestling fan makes it in the big leagues. Congrats to the Miz, Mr. Money In The Bank!

He seems very devoted to WWE so this is well deserved and I can't wait until he cashes in but, I want him to wait a while before he does so.

I hated Miz at first but has got better and better over the years. Hope he does become WWE champion (which is likely)

Proof positive that McMahon is completely delusional. Credit to the Miz for working hard, making strides in the ring to be the best he can be and taking on all the outside responsibility with media work, etc. He's got the right attitude. HOWEVER, still does not change the fact that Miz is but a curtain jerker worker. While he has made improvements, he still doesnt have a good or even average work rate. Yes, he can be entertaining at times.....Miz continues to be nothing more than a guy who should be in FCW for improvement more so than on Raw as US champion. Its a joke that he won money in the bank. I'm all for rewarding hard workers, but I'm certainly not going to make my product suffer for that reason.

Lol @ anyone on a website thinking they can call anyone a "curtain jerker". We have no idea of the wrestling business. Whether Edge is our "best friend" or not.

He deserves it. I remember reading years ago how many hated him and how he was probably not going to last much longer, but he's re-invented himself. I can't wait to see him on top someday!

Lol @ you still poking at CM for his famous Edge-airport incident. First CM is a great guy, I barely know him but he has to be one of the best mods/posters on the board. He knows his stuff and is great at trying to bring back WFWF and helping it out. Second we have no idea of the wrestling business. Yet you are on here reading these dirt sheet rumors? Ha, I bet you like to make fun of wrestlers don't you? Next time when you say someone wrestling sucks or is boring, remember what you said.

The future of Raw is a collection of lame catchphrases?

The future of Raw is a collection of lame catchphrases? I was unaware that "I'm the Miz, and I'm Awesome" was a collection. I'm not a fan of the Miz by any means, but even I can't deny that he's a bad guy, people love to hate him, and that makes for good business.
