The Miz was recently a guest on the Gorilla Position podcast. During the podcast, he was asked how he would book Roman Reigns. The Miz ended up defending Reigns against criticism that he receives from fans.
The Miz doesn’t think that WWE should change the booking of Reigns at all. Here are some quotes (h/t to Pro Wrestling Sheet):
“He’s selling the most merch out of anybody. People are going to sit there and go ‘well, he should be here; he shouldn’t be doing this.’ Nobody knows. Nobody has a scientific formula to being the most ‘over’ superstar in all the WWE.”
The Miz continued, saying that Reigns gets a reaction every time that he comes to the ring:
“The hardcore fans will sit there and go ‘oh well, you know, they’re shoving him down our throats. How dare you do that? Blah, blah, blah.’ But I guarantee there are kids out there that sit down and look at him — there are women out there that go ‘oh my God,’”
He adds that there are no completely good and bad guys in WWE right now anyway:
“Nobody likes the good ‘ol fashioned Superman, you know? Nobody wants that anymore. Everyone wants that blend of grey”
Here is a list of 12 other WWE stars who have defended Roman against criticism from fans.
