I am pretty sure that since the Miz joined Foley's team after quiting punks team he is making a face change. The crowd seems to like him more often. Ever since he came back on money in the bank, he has done nothing but impress me. So I am pretty sure he won't disappointing as a Face. But theres another option, and that is where he can be a tweener. Miz is perfect tweener material, he can easily change the crowds reactions towards him at anytime. Maybe he could have a feud with Del Rio?

What do you guys think about The Miz being face?

Or he could just be doing the super heel thing and joining team foley to destroy from within. He'd be doing a pretty good job as of the tag match.

Think Miz is going to stay face and end up being a damn good one. A feud with Del Rio would be the ultimate momentum killer in my mind though, hope that doesn't happen.

But he was showing signs of a face turn on wwe main event after he lost against kofi kingston. He went to shake kofi's hand and Kofi did the ignorant thing and drop kicked the miz out of the ring.

I'd like a face turn I'm just suggesting it's not set in stone.

I'll wait until after Survivor Series to call him a face. We'll call him a tweener now, I still think there's a chance he screws over Team Foley. If he doesn't, he'll be face.

I'm not going to lie, that would be AMAZING. But I want to see him win the Survivor Series match by himself. Have it where Team Foley gets pinned one by one, then Miz saves them and pins 3 of Team Ziggler's wrestlers for the win.

I'd like to see miz progress and prove he can be a little more versatile than the WWE is letting him be currently. WWE really needs to give guys like Miz and Ziggler their second chance. I mean honestly in the attitude era you had rock scsa austin kane undertaker jericho all going back and forth for the belt. I feel like all we get is Punk Cena (now Ryback) and Sheamus Big Show which is more than ridiculous because they have an extra belt.

As I've said on another thread on here I would LOVE a face turn for the Miz but I was really hoping for one of those old school moments where a couple heels are beating down another face and Miz has that change of heart and saves the day... It could still happen if they do some creative booking where he comes out of Survivor Series still as a tweener of sorts..... Either way I'm a huge mark for the Miz and as long as he is back towards the top of the card where he belongs, I'll be happy

Now that I think about it, your right. I should think before I post sometimes lol. Del Rio/Miz wouldn't be the best thing to do. But now that he is on team Foley, after SS he could have a feud with Ziggler. Miz/Ziggler would be a match I would defiantly tune in to watch. Just think about the promo them two can make.

I don't know man.. I like it when creative holds off on feuds for a few years. I'd like to see Ziggler and Miz go head to head for the first time at a future WrestleMania, personally.

Miz is definitely showing babyface vibes. It's hard to tell if he's doing it to only get more over as a heel, or becoming a bad-ass babyface. He could be a good interim contender for Punk if he turns babyface at the Series. Something to hold Punk over until he faces Rock.

Don't see anything wrong with a face turn for Miz, he can easily get the crowd behind him with a few measly quips about how they are awesome and then they will follow that Ohio crowd with the chants of "Miz is Awesome." It isn't that hard to get a face over, you just have them verbally abuse the big bad guy and then give them an ass kicking.

Oh come on, if there's one thing that Miz isn't and never will be, it's a badass. Nothing about him screams badass, not that it will stop him from being a popular face because I do think it will happen.

PWInsider said:
As you could probably tell by WWE TV lately, there has been a lot of internal talk about turning The Miz babyface. The feeling is that he is one of their best talkers and does a great job representing WWE with promotional and charity work. There is also the strong feeling that The Miz has done everything he can do as a heel.

They are hoping that putting him in a new WWE Studios movie for the Holidays will help with a babyface turn. They are looking for the best way to bring Miz to the next level and the feeling is that the best way to do that is turn him and do it in an organic way. Miz turning babyface isn't being planned to be a short-term angle and the turn itself will reportedly take time, if WWE has it their way.

The Miz vs. Antonio Cesaro has been discussed as a top feud for early 2013
I do think the organic turns are bette,r unless it's obviously a huge turn like Hogan was. Both Orton and Sheamus' face turns were organic and they were pretty damn successful.

I think you misunderstood me. There's a difference between calling a guy a bad-ass... like Bradshaw or Stone Cold... and using the term bad-ass as an adjective. "Oh that movie was bad-ass". It's interchangeable with saying "He's going to be a good babyface" or in Miz's case "AWWWWEEEEEEEEEEESOOME"
