The Miz on RAW

How come no one isn't putting up current updates about the Miz. He is so funny. How fitting that he says 'who raw' on raw is war. But someone should put continual updates about him such as his rather humorous mistakes that he has been making lately in his announcing on the diva search. it's entertaining enough, but does he get in trouble for that in the locker room. I mean, this page needs to talk about what is going on with him more. His behavior changes drastically each week. I assume he might be getting in trouble for the rather conspicuous flaws his made of late 02:49, 4 August 2006 —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 65.31.100.211 (talkcontribs) .

Nothing is going on. He's hosting the Diva Search, which is a waste of time, and screwing up his lines in the process. Go him. Bdve 01:57, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

dude, all of RAW is a waste of time. you know that as well I do. Why we watch it, I don't know. there is something that keeps us at it though. lol at go him. Yea, Mike is kind of a loser when you think about it Tonetare 23:33, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

Do not use this page as a talk forum. Use it to discuss how to improve the article. You got rather off topic. Killswitch

Please try to use please Killswitch. It's polite. Maleman19 16:18, 26 August 2006 (UTC)

Sorry bout that. Can we please get to how to improve the article? Like maybe adding a picture?Killswitch

There WAS a decent picture in here. Someone must have erased it. I'd say just add it back TareTone 18:57, 11 September 2006 (UTC)

The Miz makes the Miz look retarded, sorry but some one was going to say it anyway the article seems good —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.177.109.143 (talk) 02:30, 27 September 2007 (UTC)

Miz and Morrison = new WWE Tag Team Champions

As of 13th November (officially will be 16th, since it was taped). Just a heads up. Looks like Matt and MVP will finally feud again, now. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.241.17.141 (talk) 08:49, 14 November 2007 (UTC)

New Tag Team Champions Miz and Morrison

Recently Added Photo

I was just reading Mike's page and I ended up linking to The Real World: Back to New York's page. I saw the photo of the cast and I thought it could help illustate Mike's television career. I hope I'm not breaking any rules of posting a picture; I'm only trying to help. JediYoda1120 (talk) 22:02, 20 January 2008 (UTC)

You weren't breaking any rules, no worries. The user who uploaded the picture failed to provide a valid fair use rationale for its use here on Wikipedia. A valid fair use rationale is required for all copyrighted photos not in the public domain, per Wikipedia's Image use policy. Don't worry, everyone makes mistakes. You'll get the hang of it, thank you for contributing, hope you enjoy being here on Wikipedia! Bmg916Speak 22:09, 20 January 2008 (UTC)

Reality Check

I just thought about something here. Is the part where the Miz hits a knee on his opponnent's head really a part of the Reality Check, or is it only a set up. Because he's been doin the Jumping Neckbreaker Slam part on 2 different weeks (once on Smackdown during John Morrison's match and once on the last ECW). I'm just asking other's opinion, but couldn't we do like in Deuce 'N' Domino's page? (i.e. Jumping Neckbreaker Slam, usually set up with a Running knee lift to the side of kneeling opponent's head) I'm just asking here. Talon Kelson (talk) 19:04, 14 May 2008 (UTC)

Kayfabe, Kayfabe, Kayfabe

Kayfabe is said way to much in the article. Most people will gather from the article that it is not real. So the word kayfabe doesn't need to be mentioned in every sentence. Using kayfabe all the time takes away from the quality of the article in my opinion. Mr. C.C. (talk) 02:02, 1 November 2008 (UTC)

Reversion of edit on basis of grammar

NiciVampireHeart, please stop reverting this edit [1] back to it's original version. Thus far, the reasons you've given for the revert are incorrect. In your edit summary in reply to mine "that there are inaccuracies", you say "all the information is the same" which is incorrect:

Number 1: The first part is erroneous as it claims Mike went on to compete in "multiple spin-offs" of the Real World which is not true. He's only competed on one spin-off of the the Real World which is "Real World/Road Rules Challenge". All the Challenges listed are apart of the Real World/Road Rules Challenge and are NOT separate shows.

Number 2: The addition of "with contestants from Road Rules" is unnecessary because 1.) the title gives this away 2.) it gives the impression that it's Mizanin competing only with other Road Rulers other than Real Worlders 3.) there's a link to the page to find out more about the show if someone wishes to and, the topic of the paragraph is not to be discussing elements of the show.

Number 3: The line "He was known for doing well on the challenges" is POV as that may not be why he's known to everybody so it needs to be deleted which is what I have done in my edit.

Number 4: The line "He made it to the end of them all" contradicts itself as it goes on to say "except for Battle of the Sexes 2". My edit is more accurate as it states "Except for Battle of the Sexes 2, he made it to the end of the rest of them".

Also, you've repeatedly given your opinion that the grammar was worse than the original as the basis for your reversion of every change made in the edit. As there aren't grammar mistakes with each of the changes within the edit, your basis for reversion seems to be based on which grammar looks prettier to you. Inaccuracies are far more important than your own subjective opinions as to which grammar looks prettier to you. Please do not revert page to that original version again. In doing so, you will be reinstating these inaccuracies and editing unconstructively. 65.31.103.28 (talk) 01:01, 3 December 2008 (UTC)

I shall reply to you, and just say I have reworded the info in your edit, slightly to elimiate what I (and everyone else should) perceive as grammar mistakes.
Number 1: Agree. Never thought of it like that.
Number 2: I disagree that it is unnecessary. I've never watched either "the Real World" or "Road Rules", and I was not aware that it was pretty much a combination of both. I added it back it, but also added in that other contestants from "The Real World" were in there as well.
Number 3: True, POV. Left it out.
Number 4: Contained the grammar mistake. I have reworded it slightly, but your basic edit stands. It now reads "Mizanin made it to the end of the rest of the Challenges in which he competed", as "Mizanin made it to the end of the rest of the Challenges he competed on" is bad grammar. Also, "even being" sounds slightly POV to me, so I reworded that to "and was".
I trust you now find this revision better than the old one which previously stands, and my apologies for constantly reverting you. ♥NiciVampireHeart♥ 13:20, 3 December 2008 (UTC)
I just realized that there was some dispute with regard to the section I just edited. I hope you agree with what I changed and that I didn't step on anyone's toes. Please contact me if you disagree with any of my edits. Plastikspork (talk) 05:40, 4 December 2008 (UTC)
On a related note, I believe there is now some contention regarding the sentence "Except for Battle of the Seasons 2, Mizanin made it to the end of the rest of the Challenges in which he competed, and is/was one of the winners on both Battle of the Seasons and The Inferno 2" With the dispute being over using either "is" or "was"? I'm glad to see so many people very passionate about Reality TV! I was thinking this could be resolved by restructuring the sentence to say "he was on the winning team on both Battle of the Seasons and The Inferno 2". This would avoid the issue with whether one refers to him being the winner in the past or present tense. Just a thought. Let me know what you think and Thanks! Plastikspork (talk) 05:40, 4 December 2008 (UTC)

Reversion of "on"

I recently made this edit to the page [2] as my addition of the word "on" in a sentence that look perfectly fine here [3] seems to be important enough to wage a debate over. Anyways, I thought the issue was a petty one so I just restructured the sentence. If anyone wishes to object, let's talk it out here rather than reverting more. 65.31.103.28 (talk) 00:08, 5 December 2008 (UTC)

Your version looks better than what was there before. Thanks for the heads up! Plastikspork (talk) 00:11, 5 December 2008 (UTC)
I think the only valid point would be to make sure it doesn't violate the grammar rule about ending with a preposition [4]. The linked page does a pretty good job explaining the situation. Again, your most recent edit appears to be grammatically correct (in my opinion). That may explain why the "on" was removed in your second example (but I would have to think about it if it's important). Thanks again. Plastikspork (talk) 00:18, 5 December 2008 (UTC)

thank you Plastikspork! Cheers! :) 65.31.103.28 (talk) 00:38, 5 December 2008 (UTC)

PWI Most Improved

The Miz was ranked 2nd for the Pro Wrestling Illustrated Most Improved Wrestler, Cody Rhodes was ranked first.

Here is your winner and now the only triple champion in WWE History... The Miz

I was the first to put the thing in about Miz being the only person in WWE History to hold 3 titles at once and as people have been saying and i've proven it the only other 2 I could think of that might've held 3 titles at once didn't so Miz is the 1st triple champion in WWE History.--C23 C23's talk 04:36, 14 February 2010 (UTC)

How do you figure? The Unified Tag is actually one title made up of two sets of belts.--WillC 08:36, 14 February 2010 (UTC)

On WWE.com's title history page, they still consider the WWE and World Tag Team Titles as separate entities with separate histories.

This is different from when Chris Jericho unified the WWE and WCW titles. WWE considered the WCW belt dead when it was unified, but they still consider their 2 tag titles as separate entities that happen to be defended together.

Jericho/Miz - The Jiz

Can we add a section about the new tag team, or should we wait until they have competed in a match?

From what I've seen on a few sites, apparently their team name is the Jiz and their theme is a mash up of Jericho and Miz's theme.

"I came on the walls of Jericho" is apparently the theme, it's listed on WWE.com —Preceding unsigned comment added by 198.135.242.14 (talk) 14:01, 6 May 2010 (UTC)

WP:Speculation, so no. All of this is unsourced as well. This is not a forum.--WillC 15:05, 6 May 2010 (UTC)
Just because they seemed to be on the same page on Raw doesn't mean they are a tag team. Plus saying they will be a tag team now or in the future is pure WP:Crystal balling. Mr. C.C.Hey yo!I didn't do it! 17:55, 6 May 2010 (UTC)

Heels often get on the same page, ala Triple H/Jericho in 2003, it doesn't mean any kind of Team has actually formed. Afro (Blah Blah Here) - Afkatk 06:52, 7 May 2010 (UTC)

And I seriously doubt that if they formed a team, that they'd call it The Jiz, considering the sexual connotation the word Jizz has. ♥NiciVampireHeart♥ 12:50, 7 May 2010 (UTC)

Miz = Triple Champion.

Please leave in the note about Miz being the first in WWE history to hold 3 separate championships all at once.

It is a historical feat that should be noted.

It is not original research (something someone makes up with no proof to back them up), as anybody can go to WWE.com's title history page and see when people have held championships.

Orphaned references in Mike Mizanin

Orphaned references

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Mike Mizanin's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

ShowMiz

After signing with WWE, Mizanin became host of the annual WWE Diva Search competition in 2006. Following his hosting duties, Mizanin made his wrestling debut in September 2006, as a villain who went "undefeated". In 2007, he was drafted from SmackDown to the ECW brand, where he formed a partnership with John Morrison, in which the two held both the WWE Tag Team Championship and the World Tag Team Championship. He was drafted to the Raw brand as part of the 2009 WWE Draft, where he won the WWE United States Championship on two occasions. In July 2010, he won a Money in the Bank ladder match at the Money in the Bank pay-per-view, earning a contract for a WWE Championship match.

My earlier comment was from November. In the last five months, we have gotten new images of The Miz, some of which, yes, show him as the WWE Champion. Why would we change the current image? It has an excellent view of his face, and is perfect as an infobox image. Btw, what's "rocket surgery"? NiciVampireHeart 02:20, 19 March 2011 (UTC)

Edit request from 96.254.154.101, 3 April 2011

Please change the section about the Miz becoming a triple champion to a double champion because although, at the time, they were 2 different belts the Unified WWE Tag Team Championship were technically one title, not 2, making him a double champion.

96.254.154.101 (talk) 16:45, 3 April 2011 (UTC)

  Done as no source in the article confirms that he was atriple champion. Thanks, NiciVampireHeart 19:14, 3 April 2011 (UTC)

Please change it back, this guy already gave reasons which have since been archived. "On WWE.com's title history page, they still consider the WWE and World Tag Team Titles as separate entities with separate histories.

This is different from when Chris Jericho unified the WWE and WCW titles. WWE considered the WCW belt dead when it was unified, but they still consider their 2 tag titles as separate entities that happen to be defended together.

Vjmlhds 15:37, 14 February 2010 (UTC)" So according to WWE histories, Miz held three titles at once, US, WWE tag, World tag, not merely US and Unified tag. 76.226.223.3 (talk) 23:29, 8 April 2011 (UTC)

Update for the article

The Miz has won the WWE Championship for a second time on the edition of Monday Night Raw on May 2nd of this year. On that night, The Miz won the title for a little moment until the referee changed his decision giving the title back to John Cena.

Use of "character" versus "kayfabe"

Since there seems to be a sudden issue with one editor and the use of the word "character" in referring to Triple H's firing of the The Miz, I've decided to start a discussion here in hopes of gaining consensus either way and avoid further edit wars. Although WWE television features fictional characters and storylines, there's always a fine line between the stories and real life events that happen within the company. That being said, with Triple H being the fictional COO of the company, many editors, many of which are IP editors, have been adding the word "kayfabe" arbitrarily within the section speaking of the fictional firing. Adding "kayfabe" as verb or noun, as these editors often do, is not only grammatically incorrect but it's also jargon, which is discouraged via WP:JARGON. I agree that what we see on TV should be considered fiction. However, there's still that fine line that some feel the need to explain and some general fans are not really aware of. The average reader could read this and think that Triple H is actually the COO of the company. While the hardcore wrestling fan is perfectly aware that this is a storyline, the article should be clear and concise to a reader who stumbles upon the page for the first time. To avoid confusion or the addition of "kayfabe", it helps to clarify that the firing was done by Triple H's character and not a legitimate firing. Any opinions? NJZombie (talk) 07:12, 2 October 2011 (UTC)

We don't write articles with what might happen tomorrow night, a month from now, or a year from now, per WP:CRYSTAL. Additionally, your response does not address the main subject at hand, which is to make it accessible to the average reader. No matter how tomorrow night's events play out, there will still be the section that speaks of their "firing" and it should be made clear.

We don't clarify characters pinning one another because that's not an aspect of the business or company that walks a fine line between story and reality. Wrestlers being released does. Once again, if the average reader comes to this page which, despite the fact that it features a synopsis of fictional storyline events, still needs to follow the guidelines of WP:BLP, and they see that a person was fired from their job, it's a potential issue. Me stating that one character fired another is reporting the event that happened and nothing at all like guessing the storyline. It reports the event and clarifies that it happened within a storyline without using jargon. There are plenty of wrestling articles on Wikipedia that report personal life events within the wrestling synopses because they were incorporated into storylines as well. This clarifies that, this time, this is not the case. Lastly, once again, you're speculating what might happen on Monday night, which doesn't play into what's being written now. No, it wouldn't have to be explained to anybody because it would have already been made clear that he was fired by a character and not an actual executive. Thank you for helping to prove my point.

I'm already on record of being against the usage of "kayfabe", "shoot", "Worked shoot", and other pro-wrestling jargon in articles - especially because it tends to result inevitably in violations of WP:CBALL, WP:OR, and WP:NPOV. Truthfully, the article in it's present form (at the time of this posting) is the most presentable format in my opinion (based upon how it is written as follows): "On the August 29 episode of Raw, Truth interfered in Miz's match and the duo attacked CM Punk. The following week, Miz and Truth announced that they would challenge Air Boom (Evan Bourne and Kofi Kingston) to a match for the WWE Tag Team Championship at Night of Champions. In that pay-per-view tag title match, Miz would assault the referee, causing his team to lose by disqualification. Seeking retribution, Miz and Truth would later attack both Triple H and CM Punk during their no disqualification match in the main event. Because of their actions from the previous night, R-Truth and The Miz were fired by Triple H on the September 19 edition of Raw." ⒺⓋⒾⓁⒼⓄⒽⒶⓃ 08:17, 2 October 2011 (UTC)
I'm very much against the usage of "kayfabe" myself. As I said though, in some cases, such as this, where the line between fiction and reality can be skewed in the eyes of the everyday reader, making some kind of notation seems appropriate, especially within an article that needs to follow WP:BLP guidelines.

Face Turn?

I don't think, that Miz putting del Rio in the Skull Crushing Finale was really a Face Turn. I just to show that it is everybody for himself in this type of match. So, i think, this Article or he part "Face Turn" has to be corrected. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 93.193.102.130 (talk) 17:54, 6 December 2011 (UTC)

What's This Pointless Dross Doing Here?

"As of WrestleMania XXVIII, The Miz is undefeated in Televised WrestleMania matches." 

This awful line of text was featured in the introduction of this article? Why? It's disgusting that such a pointless and irrelevant fact is listed. If this is listed here, then why is not listed in every other wrestler who has won only one WrestleMania match on air and never even appeared at the event again? To save time, since I know I'm right, I deleted the line from the article.

If you want to argue my above statement, why not explain to me the reason there was no reference even citing this as a fact? It sounds to me like some Miz fan trying his best to make him sound good. I mean the person who wrote that piece of garbage line sounds desperate to gloss over the fact that he lost the tag team titles at WrestleMania XXV. Face it, The Miz lost at WrestleMania. 186.45.72.78 (talk) 04:44, 18 January 2013 (UTC)

Rob Van Dam has also an undefeated WrestleMania streak (4-0). But similar to Miz, he was defeated in a tag team match in WWE Heat before WrestlaMania XIX OnurT 14:54, 3 March 2013 (UTC) .
1) The Miz' WrestleMania streak has been mentioned in WWE storyline. 2) WrestleMania 25 dark match wasn't counted by WWE. Romangelo (talk) 19:29, 11 April 2013 (UTC)

uncredited guest starring on FGN

The Miz made an appearance in one episode in the 5th season (AKA Celebrity Edition) of the Discovery Family gameshow series Family Game Night. The episode was notable for, in addition to featuring WWE celebrities The Miz and Cameron, having 4 bulbs on the operation Sam game broken. Does anyone know the episode # so the Television Appearance entry can include it? I've created the entry already and filled in what I know; the entry just lacks an episode #.--Macks2008 (talk) 18:47, 12 October 2015 (UTC)

The last paragraph in the intercontinental title section

The last paragraph in the intercontinental title section is horrible and very subjective, and that's not the worst thing about it, I'm removing it for now. — Preceding unsigned comment added by ElectroHelal (talkcontribs) 18:14, 26 August 2016 (UTC)

Bolding?

I notice that there seem to be quite a few bolded words sprinkled throughout the article. That's non-standard for most articles - is there some particular justification for it to be used so frequently here? It doesn't even seem to be used as emphasis, so I'm not sure what the thinking is.

NXT Season 1

Does the first season of NXT count as Television apperance? I understand that the show was in WWE television; but was role as mentor to Daniel Bryan (As with all 'Coaches' in the NXT Series formula) any different from his role on WWE Tough Enough (2015)? Both shows took place in WWE television; and it seems as though the level of kayfabe is the same (Which shouldn't matter anyway.)

I'd also point out TV Guide has Miz having significantly more TV Show appearances including Conan & Jimmy Fallon [1]Lee Vilenski (talk) 20:11, 9 October 2017 (UTC)
