The Miz and CM Punk had a good conversation.
The Miz and CM Punk have had some issues over the years, and they have taken some shots at each other. In 2020, Punk memorably called out Miz for competing at WWE's shows in Saudi Arabia. However, CM Punk returned to WWE in 2023, and many members of the roster have spoken highly of him since then.
Speaking on Unlikely with Adrian Hernandez, The Miz was asked about the rumor that Punk apologized to him backstage before he returned to WWE.
“Yeah, it was in Chicago, and I was just walking down the stairs, and he was standing there. We just locked eyes. Remember, he left a long time ago and has never been back, right, and it always felt like it was a ‘never going to happen’ type of thing. To see him backstage, I was like, ‘What?’ So we ended up having a really good conversation, and it was one of those moments where [it was] guys talking, and we kind of just buried the hatchet, I guess you could say," The Miz said.
The Miz and CM Punk are now both members of the WWE Raw roster.
John Cena recently called The Miz the most underrated superstar in WWE history. Check out his comments here.
