“Day 1: underrated, underappreciated, and up against an immense amount of pressure and an overwhelmingly loud population of peers and public thinking I can’t do it and don’t belong. 6,521 days later we are less than one week until A&E Biography WWE Legends: The Miz,” The Miz tweeted, capturing the essence of his career-long battle for recognition.
The Miz’s Early Days and Meteoric Rise
The Miz’s WWE journey began nearly two decades ago. His first match was against Daniel Puder in a Dixie Dog Fight at Armageddon 2004, a far cry from the heights he would eventually reach. Over the years, he has amassed a total of 21 titles, cementing his legacy as one of WWE’s most decorated performers.
His most recent accolade was winning the WWE World Tag Team Championships with R-Truth at WrestleMania 40, a significant milestone in his career. However, the journey hasn’t been without its setbacks. Just two weeks ago, “Awesome-Truth” lost their tag titles in a heated main event of “WWE Raw” against Finn Balor and JD McDonagh of The Judgment Day.
