Read the whole tweet thread, shyt is LIT.
An "antihero"... fukk outta here.
You don't think Miz is an antihero?
fits the trope (minus the beautiful wife)
expected to lose
lost for a while
built himself despite popular opinion (gives no fukks about protecting others )
and is enjoying the fruits of his labor despite the odds against him
Not your typical anti-hero, when I think in the Austin, Sting, DDP, classic sense. Who were solo, kicked ass and were badass cool. Or Punk or Bryan who connected with the fans on a another level.
The thing I can say about Miz that fits him best, is to steal a word from one the anti-heroes I've already mentioned is Anomaly. I remember DDP using this in one of his promos vs Savage back in 97. Everything in Miz's background prior to being in the WWE no athletic pedigree and the politics that he has endured during the first half of his career, he really shouldn't have lasted as long as he did before he even got the title and then beating Cena at WM, who the hell thought that would of happened.
I will say tho, he wasn't really ready for the Main Event scene when he had the title and beat Cena, but he is fully ready now. And it's criminal that he hasn't had another World Title run, considering who has had the title since he last had it.
I've said it on here before. He should've been the one to dethrone Randy after Mania not Jinder. The Superstar Shakeup really screwed Miz in that case.
I agree, especially with AJ as face. The promos about moments, could easily be transferred from Cena/JJ/Roman on to Orton.
Have to admit Miz has come A LONG WAY. Dude started out as a host for Smackdown, went to ECW and reinvented himself, tagged with John Morrison, won the US belt. This was all in his first 5 years on the main roster.
He shouldn't have been the main event at WrestleMania 27 but besides that, he's good with me.
