MIKE AWESOME IS BETTER THAN THE MIZ

HeartBreakMan2k 04-01-2011 01:27 AM

Yes, but he's not more incredible than Justin Credible.

DLVH84 04-01-2011 01:39 AM

FUCK NO. The Gladiator is more awesome than The Miz, even in death.

Damian Rey 04-01-2011 01:53 AM

Awesome was an anamoly. How a guy that big could be that athletic was ridiculous. He was billed as 6'6, 290 lbs. To move the way he did was Brock Lesnar-esque, and I think both WCW and WWE missed the boat on this guy. Kinda odd when you think about it. He had the look Vince craves, and the athleticism and ability to put on good matches.

Back to question at hand, Miz is awesome for his mic work, his ability to connect with the crowd and draw heat, and his progression from reality star to company champion, headlining Mania. That's a helluva feat nobody saw coming.

Awesome was awesome for being a monster who could move and put on good matches, and was a prototype for the type of wrestler you'd want at the top of the company, physically.

Awesome didn't get the chance the Miz did in the mainstream, so I'll call it a draw.

Awsome should have gone down as one of if not the best big man in the biz but he took a payday and ruined his reputation. Awsome did some of the most Awsome thing ever seen in a wrestling match, and his matches with Masato tanaka were classics.

The Miz went from a mtv garbage tv star to the most entertaining wwe champ since jerichos first reign. But the Miz still has his whole career ahead of him.

i think this is a stupid question because they are 2 different to compare.

Rock Bottom 04-01-2011 06:32 AM

Looks like lovechild of Davey Boy and Benoit. No offense to any of them.

MoFo 04-01-2011 06:54 AM

Their careers went in opposite directions, so I dunno.

Probably.

Razzamajazz 04-01-2011 07:21 AM

No. A name is more concrete than a stupid unoriginal catchphrase.

Razzamajazz 04-01-2011 07:21 AM

WHAAAAAAAA??????

Theo Dious 04-01-2011 10:49 AM

Let's see.

The Miz won the WWE title and is about to headline Wrestlemania.

Mike Awesome's greatest achievements are the ECW title and invading Madison Square Garden to win the Hardcore title. With the latter probably being higher up than the latter. Then he killed himself.

Basically, even if Miz kisses a shotgun after Wrestlemania, he's still accomplished more.

Plus Mike Awesome sucked ass.

Testicle 04-01-2011 10:57 AM

Miz has obviously achieved more... Whether or not that makes him more awesome, idk?

Mike Awesome was the fucking man though, say what you want about the guy, he was an amazing athlete and his matches were entertaining. Kind of a one trick pony, but he did that trick very, very well.

REALLY?

REALLY?

REALLY?


Side note, Nobody will ever be as Awesome as Mike Awesome was.

kareru 04-01-2011 02:42 PM

Mike Awesome made Joey Styles say
"oh my FUCKING GOD"

the Miz could never do that

MON$TER ENERGY 04-01-2011 05:06 PM

Mike Awesome=The Shit!

The Miz= reality t.v douchebag

FourFifty 04-01-2011 05:27 PM

I heard that Mike Awesome was well hung.

Dirk Ziggler 04-02-2011 03:23 AM

Its like nobody its taking into consideration Mike Awesome's mullet... :nono:


Look how it slowly forms into jerry curls

...a year later:

On February 17, 2007, at around 10:30 p.m, a group of Awesome's friends found him hanged in his Tampa home. He was 42 years old.

Seth82 04-02-2011 09:09 AM

Mike Awesome was the fucking man

he was amazing in FMW in japan as The Gladiator

his ECW run was great as he had fantastic matches with Masato Tanaka

his WCW and WWE stints were an embarrassment to the man and his legacy

Miz has a long fucking way to go if he wants to be as great as Mike Awesome

Remember, the TNA Orlando Jordan character supposedly was Kanyon's idea for himself...

Dirk Ziggler 04-03-2011 05:00 AM

"Bi- Sexual Chocolate" Orlando Jordan

NormanSmiley 04-03-2011 01:37 PM

when the Miz starts banging fat chicks on the regular he will be close to mike's level of awesomeness

Nightwing 04-03-2011 01:49 PM

Awesome people dont kill themselves.

So, The Miz.

Why are you so persistent in calling him Awsome?

nobody?

I was on The Miz bandwagon from the beginning. this is just icing on the cake.

he does have a long way to go though. can't wait to see where.... than again it is WWE. could kill it in a day.

JimmyMess 04-05-2011 09:25 AM

The Miz is more awesome than Mike Awesome.

I didn't care about Mike Awesome. He was nothing special IMO, mostly because I don't remember much about him.

Hardkore Kidd J 04-05-2011 01:24 PM

These are 2 different guys in 2 different federations. I have seen a few of Mike Awesome matches and no offense to the Miz (Believe me ever since he came up I have been like the biggest Miz fan on the planet. )

But, Mike Awesome pulled off some of the most amazing shit I have ever seen. Miz is good when it comes to working a crowd over, and getting heel heat and cutting a promo but from what I have seen they are Awesome in different ways.

Phenomenal 1 04-05-2011 08:39 PM

pure and simple reason for why Miz is more awesome than the man that contained the name Awesome as his in ring name:

I disagree with this statement unless, by major title, you mean the world title.

Anybody Thrilla 04-16-2011 06:50 PM

Where's all this "amazing shit" that Mike Awesome pulled off? He was pretty OK at best.

voncouch 04-18-2011 01:06 PM

NUMBER OF WORLD TITLES

Miz = 1
Mike Awesome = 1

That's pretty even. Let's try another one.

NUMBER OF SUICIDES:
Miz = 0
Mike Awesome = 1

I guess it depends on your stance on suicide. If suicide is awesome, then the crown goes to Mike.
