The Miz Appears On Crutches As He Makes Major Announcement
The Miz has a major announcement for fans.
The former WWE Champion shared a video on social media, though, appearing on crutches while informing his followers to tune in to The Rich Eisen Show.
Real name Mike Mizanin, the 44-year-old WWE veteran, is scheduled to host the show, but has now thrown a curveball with his support sticks.
Some comments below the post had fans sarcastically asking if this was “a work.”
These fans were referencing Seth Rollins’ ruse, which unfolded at Night 1 of SummerSlam.
Rollins was reportedly injured, missing various WWE tapings, only to show up at the premium live event to cash in his Money in the Bank contract on CM Punk to become the new World Heavyweight Champion.
The Miz, on the other hand, appeared in top condition during a backstage segment on the August 8 episode of SmackDown.
Mizanin was seen scheming a plot before running into his mentee, Carmelo Hayes. It was kind of a reunion between the two, as the two-time WWE Champion was missing from action for a few weeks.
