The Miz

I admit that I was never a huge fan of The Miz when he debuted hosting the Diva Search. I WAS rooting for him during the Tough Enough competition, however. When The Miz was moved to ECW is when I really become a fan. He was given the chance to shine and go for the title on numerous occasions. His pairing with Morrison did wonders for his career. And, no, not be cause Morrison carried him; rather, because they clicked so well and really taught each other what they were missing. Morrison needs the mic skills and Miz needs to carry himself in a match (which he's been doing).

When they finally split the team up (who didn't see that coming with the commentary they were getting during the match Miz had with Kingston). The question was who would go where? I loved that Miz was going to Raw because it was a live show and he could certainly gain momentum with the amount of talent there was on Raw. I wasn't worried Miz would get lost in the shuffle because he wasn't going to break out as a top star off the bat. He needs time to get billed as a viable contender. How do they do this, they mix him up in the Cena-Show storyline. This storyline (along with that of Morrison and Benjamin) have been the two storylines that have been the center of attention on either show, IMO. This shows that both men are being given a great chance to blow up but it takes time for them to really be pushed to that next level.

Miz has consistently been improving and I look forward to how far he'll go this year. I think 2009 will be The Miz's breakout year and 2010 will be his reward year where he'll be moved to the next level.
