The Miz believes that a pre-match vignette prior to his match with John Cena at WrestleMania topped another iconic WWE video package.
Prior to the main event of WrestleMania 27, a special video package was aired that highlighted the rivalry between The Miz and John Cena. For The Miz, this video package is the greatest ever put together by WWE.
While speaking on Insight With Chris Van Vliet, The Miz spoke about the video package, noting his belief that it tops the iconic ‘My Way’ video package for Stone Cold Steve Austin and The Rock.
“That Hate Me Now vignette is so good. I still think it’s the best. People say Rock and Austin, My Way, they say that one’s the best. I beg to differ, and the reason is what that vignette did in that moment. I wonder if that vignette was put on SmackDown, there would have been a different feeling energy going in. Because going in, I remember I was swallowed up. You’re the WWE Champion, I’m going up against titans, The Rock and John Cena, titans. Then there’s me with the WWE Championship. Back then, it still is very, very competitive. But man, everyone was fighting for it. Everyone’s fighting for that spot, that main event spot. I’m like, Man, I want this main event. I have to get this main event. This main event is everything; we have to get it. I mean, I have The Rock, I have Cena, this has got to be it. But there were so many great matches and great superstars on that card. It could have went either way.”
Elsewhere in the same interview, The Miz spoke about wins and losses mattering in WWE. You can read more about that here.
