The Miz talks his WWE future.
Miz is one of the most decorated performers in WWE today. He is the only two-time Grand Slam champion in WWE history. The Miz has also gone through the bulk of his career with only one major injury, an ACL tear that he suffered last year at WrestleMania Backlash.
Now, The Miz is coming off of a very successful WrestleMania season, teaming with Logan Paul in his first-ever wrestling match, and speaking to the Detroit News ahead of Monday Night Raw, The Miz says he is not ready to retire anytime soon.
"I would say my role in the company now is as a person who can develop newcomers but also be in the main event, or help the main event out, or be on the mid-card. I can be anywhere," he says. "I'm the person that they're like, 'hey, we've got this,' and if they give it to me, they know it's going to be gold," he said of his WWE longevity
Speaking about working with celebrities, which he has done two WrestleManias in a row, The Miz says he Prides himself on pushing every celebrity to do their absolute best inside of a WWE ring.
"My goal, whenever a celebrity comes in, is not to have them just sit on the sidelines and watch me work. What the fans paid to see is, 'is Logan Paul going to be able to do this?' I want to be able to give fans that answer, whether it's positive or negative," he says. "So I'm going to push whichever celebrity is out there to be their absolute best, and it only works if they have the heart, the dedication, the will, and the athletic ability to do it.
"As for the future, "I'm hoping I'm able to perform at the top of my level, stay injury-free, have fun and maybe have a couple more shows out on television," Miz says.
On Monday Night Raw, The Miz will face Cody Rhodes, who will have his first Monday Night Raw match in 6 years. Learn more here.
