To be a babyface? It's obviously being hinted. His current heel character has been irreverent for the past year and him turning face could be a breath of fresh air, so if he is, I'm really anxious to see how it plays out.

Nope. He's genuinely annoying and easy to dislike. He's the most natural heel since Shawn Michaels.

Yeah, why not? I think he's one of those heels that the fans actually like deep down. He got a mixed reaction in the UK last week and has been cheered a ton of times over the last couple of years.

Absolutely. He's got plenty of charisma and could easily adjust his in-ring style to work as a babyface. Not to mention, he's a workhorse behind the scenes when it comes to WWE in the media. Being a face would only increase his marketability and usefulness in that respect.

Yeah, he was a really good WWE Champion imo, wouldn't mind it put on him again after the Cena/Rock/Punk fued settles down

Yeah. Personally I love the Miz, as a heel he's cool but his "really" catchphrase is way over. I'd love to see him as a cocky face, like Edge was.

I think he has the potential. I think if you listen to the crowd when he told Heyman he quit Team Punk, he definitely got a positive response from the crowd.
I think he has the potential to be a sort of cocky face that does controversial things but sides with the crowd.
Unfortunately in WWE right now, you don't have too many "tweeners". WWE is VERY black and white right now. You either have the cowardly heel who runs away from ALL fights, or the "I love the WWE Universe" babyface.
I don't think Miz would get over as a 2012-2013 WWE face where he has to kiss the fans asses and be a full fledged good boy....he'd need to have an edge, be cocky, arrogant, do controversial things that got under the skin of the real heels. Right now, that doesn't exist in WWE. They tried it with CM Punk in the summer of 2011, the fans loved it, then they immediately pulled the plug on Punk and made him a full fledged ass kissing face, and now he's the cowardly heel that runs away.

I think he has tremendous potential to be the #2 or #3 face in the company behind Cena.

I couldn't agree with this more. The Miz, like CM Punk, simply doesn't work as a cookie-cutter babyface, but give them the arrogant edge and we're talking something totally different. As previously mentioned, similar to the way they used Edge in the past. Just because you're a good guy, doesn't mean you have to kiss the fans asses and slap hands, etc. Punk never did it on TV, only at house shows. That's the way to go with someone like The Miz.

He seems to have run his course as a heel. If he's going to elevate himself again, it will probably be as a face... That being said, he's very easy to dislike. Not sure how they will get past that to make him a face.

Nah.
"Really" is played out.
"I'm awesome" is played out.
Turning the WWE logo upside down is played out.

I'd say it's possible, yes.

Nope. He's genuinely annoying and easy to dislike. He's the most natural heel since Shawn Michaels. You obviously haven't seen interviews of his outside of WWE. He's likeable. I've said for awhile he'd make a great face. His heel stuff was getting old.
