John Cena vs The Miz

The Miami Herald caught up with The Miz. During their conversation, the Miz talked about some of the trials and tribulations he went through first breaking into WWE. Here is what he said about his early WWE up comings.

“I went to Ohio Valley Wrestling [in Louisville] to learn more,” Miz said following his Tough Enough run. You go to different schools to learn different things.

“Finally I got brought up to be the Ryan Seacrest of WWE. They wanted me to host Friday Night Smackdown and host of the Diva Search. It wasn’t exactly what I wanted, but I knew if they gave me the microphone, I could get a character over and show people who I am.

“After six months of doing that, they said, ‘You’re going to start wrestling.’ I said, ‘Wow.’ I went undefeated for almost six months.

“After I started losing, I started losing a lot. Literally everyone thought I was going to be future endeavored [released]. Nobody liked me in the locker room. I got kicked out of the locker room. No one likes a person who comes from a reality background and comes to WWE and thinks they can do it.
