How Miz will Suffer from Botching with R Truth?
This past Monday we saw R-Truth take a nasty bump after an over-the-top-rope move resulted in him hitting the floor head and back first.
The Miz is taking the blame for the near injury-causing moment, and he probably should be punished a little since the situation could have been much worse.
But how much does he deserve to suffer for this? TWNP News is reporting that the word backstage is that WWE was not that happy with Miz as of late and this mistake could cement his mid-card status for a while.
Back when Miz was first being elevated to main event status he was being featured all over television and WWE was taking advantage of his exposure from his past years as a reality TV star.
Now it looks as if Miz has taken it down a notch and no longer seems like the edgy Internet darling so many people wanted to see pushed a little over a year ago.
It's funny how someone can go from being in the main event of WrestleMania, and winning, to being in the doghouse without a push less than a year later. Well not funny, but interesting.
This is the nature of WWE. If you are one of the hot stars in the fans' eyes, then you will get pushed. If you are an amazing worker you still have a chance of getting pushed. If you are only so-so in the ring, however, and you lose your other appeal, then you will lose your spot, plain and simple.
Daniel Bryan got to the top by being a great worker, not by being edgy on the mic or in your face on talk show appearances.
I am a fan of the Miz because he brings something different to the table. He is not the usual WWE superstar in many ways which might be why he was viewed as a breath of fresh air from management last year.
The rumors of him being blamed for Survivor Series having a low buy rate and now the botch with Truth may lead to Miz being used as a joke for a little while, but if he keeps working his butt off he could find his way back to the top eventually.
