Just look at the names of some of the WWE Champions together: Bruno Sammartino Billy Graham Bob Backlund Hulk Hogan Ric Flair Shawn Michaels Stone Cold Kurt Angle Brock Lesnar Eddie Guerrero John Cena Triple H Edge The Miz He just does not belong in the elite category of wrestlers, he is so out of place with those names. He shouldn't hold the same belt that the likes of Undertaker, Chris Jericho, and Batista have held to represent a brand. Who doesn't belong? Angle's first run with the title was shorter than Miz's. Same with Eddie. And others on the list. Well, Edge had 4 title reigns which combined don't even equal out to Miz's one in terms of length. Same with Flair's two reigns. HBK's first WrestleMania main event he won the WWE title. Miz's first WrestleMania main event he retained the WWE title. Same with Austin. First main event, he won the title. And it didn't last as long as Miz's. HHH wins his first WWE title and he then feuds with Vince McMahon who beats him for the title after just 3 weeks. Miz feuds with Jerry Lawler and beats him to retain the title. Only one of Lesnar's title reigns came close to Miz's but it falls short. HHH only has one WWE title reign longer than the Miz's. Bruno, Backlund, Hogan and Cena were/are the main faces of the company so of course they'll have more and/or longer reigns. Bruno was winding down his career so Graham took the title just to drop it to Backlund and Graham's career in the WWF was slowly coming to an end as well. But that time was so different compared to now. Even compared to the Rock and Wrestling Era it was very different. No way would someone go 2,000 days with the WWE title in this day and age. All of Hogan's title reigns only come out to a bit over half of Bruno's total. So Miz doesn't belong? I don't buy it for a second.

Nope. Miz is terrible at everything to me. Can't stand him as a face, heel or a wrestler in general. He's just an experiment by WWE to see if they could transition a """"""celebrity"""""" into a credible wrestler and Miz just happened to get over.

I think The Miz will stay in the mid-card and continue to compete for the Intercontinental Championship for the time being. I sense a Fatal 4 Way soon between The Miz, Wade Barrett, Chris Jericho, and Fandango.

They didn't go to him and say "Please Mr. MTV reality show person join our wrestling promotion and we'll make you a star." If they wanted to get a celebrity over then why did he go through Tough Enough? Why didn't he win? Why was he relegated to Smackdown host? If they wanted to get a celebrity over they certainly weren't trying.

Speaking of the Miz remember his biggest Wrestlemania drop off ever story line? Couldn't be more true. Main event(sort of it was obviously focused on Cena/Rock), to 8 man tag match, to pre show.

Miz should stay comfortably in the midcard where I don't have to give a flying all about him one way or the other.

But, he should have never dropped out of the main event. If WWE had not relegated him to the bottom of the card with this awful face turn, he would still be a top draw. But, they screwed up. As someone said, this place used to be filled with Miz fans. Due to WWE's incompetence, though, his heat disappeared along with his "fans". A true travesty.

I remember enjoying his WWE title run, so I'd probably be up for a WHC run if they actually did something of interest with him first.

I'm a huge fan of the Miz, but he needs to stop doing the Figure Four, it just doesn't seem right.

I remember when WF was full of Miz fans lol I like the guy, and I hate to be that guy to say this, but he needs to be a heel. He's a natural heel. His entire face run has felt forced. And I remember when Miz was interesting. I can't stand him now. Boring.

I find Miz really likable, and I thought he was great with A-Ry, I dont know why they had to break them up they worked well together, Miz/Lawlers feud for the WWE title was bloody brilliant imo. I'd like to see him win MITB for the WHC come to think of it. But I think Axel will get it and fight for the WHC. The WWE title MITB will be won by someone to feed to Cena.

I'm a MIZ guy 150%. I saw potential when he was getting compared to a "sack of cherry nuts" by JBL. He actualized that potential when he won his first WWE title in my hometown of Orlando. I would love to see him a WWE Champ. The WHC is a charity belt for those who they want to stick around but they aren't at WWE's state of ready to carry the company. The Miz was ready when he was heel. As a matter of fact, there wasn't anyone else you would've wanted to carry the belt at that time. As a heel, he's golden. ABSOLUTELY GOLDEN. I belive his face frontier was just jacked up due to poor timing. When the fans were in love with him (cheering him as a heel), THAT's when WWE should have turned him face. While he was still champion and John Cena was injured. He was ready to carry the torch at that time. I don't believe him losing the championship was what runied his momentum. I believe it was when R-Truth screwed up and got suspended during that "cigarette" angle. Just my opinion.
He's nowhere near the top of the card right now, but if WWE would give him a heel run, I'd say thumbs up. The perfect way to do this? Have him form an alliance with Jericho again, have jericho win the title from Ziggler, then Miz turn on Jericho. Sounds simple but they could REALLY build it up nice.
