The self proclaimed “Most-Must See WWE Superstar Of All-Time”, The Miz recently sat down with Bleacher Report and talked “The Real World” and how the show helped him with an aspect of pro-wrestling. Also, The Miz recalls not being liked when he first came onto WWE’s main roster.
Here are the highlights:
Using “The Miz” On The Real World:
“The Miz came in as a way to say exactly what I was feeling and not have any repercussions for it because it was a character I was playing. That character became very popular, not only with fans but with castmates.”
How “The Real World” Helped Him With Pro-Wrestling:
“It got me comfortable in front of the cameras. Whenever I had an interview, it wasn’t a nervous situation. That was something I’d done for a long time. It showed me I could play up to the cameras, the camera was my friend.”
Not Being Liked When He First Joined WWE:
“I wasn’t liked. I think of WWE as a fraternity; you have the fans involved, you have the WWE Superstars involved and you have me wanting to be a part of the fraternity and no one accepting me. Every ounce of respect I have today, I had to earn. I guess I’m glad for it because it made me the person I am today and I like me.”
