The Miz is ready to step to the EST.
Before he was a WWE superstar, The Miz was a reality show legend. Before she was a WWE superstar, Bianca Belair was a track & field SEC legend.
Who would win in race between the two? If Miz was allowed to wear running shoes while Belair donned wrestling boots, Miz believes he would win.
"I actually challenged Bianca Belair, she's the EST, the best at everything, and a huge track star. I said to her, 'Do you think [you could beat me] in a race if I have running shoes on and you have wrestling boots on?' She said, 'No doubt in my mind.' She didn't think about it. That's what made me go, 'Oh really?' She didn't think about it, just, 'No doubt in my mind.' I went to the entire WWE locker room and I go, 'Bianca Belair has wrestling boots on, I have running shoes on. Who wins in a race?' Everyone, there was not one person who had my back. Everyone just goes, 'Bianca Belair will kill you.' There is no way. There is no way (she is) in wrestling boots and I have running shoes on that she could beat me in a race," said Miz in an interview with Rich Eisen on The Rich Eisen Show.
Eisen, who famously runs the 40-yard dash at the NFL combine, offered to set up the race between the two stars.
It remains to be seen if Belair and Miz will clash on the track.

**WRITERS NOTE: In the interview, Miz says, "'Do you think I could beat you in a race if I have running shoes on and you have wrestling boots on?'" when recalling the story, but his tone/inflection and the rest of the story gives the impression that he misspoke in how he phrased the question to Belair when recalling the story in the interview, thus the change marked in brackets.
