For two decades, The Miz has been a staple of WWE television, whether it was his beginnings on "Tough Enough," his rise to the main event scene and headlining WrestleMania, or finding his role as a utility player.
While some may not understand how The Miz has remained a top-tier player in WWE, Kevin Owens got it once he worked with him.
"If there is one guy that doesn't get enough credit, it's him. Even me. I'll fully admit this, and I think I told Mike before. I watched WWE from the outside looking in as an independent wrestler, hoping to get to WWE. I'd see Miz and I'd go, 'How the fuck is this guy main eventing WrestleMania? How the fuck is this guy always in the top angles?' I know why once I worked with him once. 'That's why.' We talk about making everything work. He is the epitome of that. He'll say yes to anything, he'll make it work, he'll do it good. He has amazing matches. He had a match with Gunther in Chicago. You look at Gunther and you look at Miz. You look at Gunther and you think, 'I can't wait to see him wrestle...' Miz is probably bottom of the list. They killed it. Killed it. That's true with almost everyone. Miz can do that with anybody. He does not get enough credit," Owens said on What Do You Want To Talk About? with Cody Rhodes.
The Miz has been off WWE TV since May when he lost to Aleister Black.
Elsewhere during the interview, Owens gave an update on his neck injury. You can find his full comments here.
