Booking The Miz would be pretty easy. Here we go:
Next week, The Miz enters for a match with Sylvan, who is now a babyface of sorts (he goes nowhere as a heel), Mizanin runs out with a World Heavyweight Championship replica, and then says "This is the truuuuuuuue story, of a man on his way to becomming World...Heavyweight...CHAMPION! HOORAH! (Crowd: You suck!). The Miz manages to counter a Quebec Cutter (TKO) into a facelock, and then hits The Mizard of Oz for the pinfall.
The Miz then gets on the mic and says that he has just defeated a former four-time World Tag Team Champion, and he's now 5-0. The Miz gets in the face of JBL after the match, and then tells JBL he's lucky he's retired. Layfield tells The Miz that it is disrespectful him carrying a replica belt when he is an employee of the WWE. He looks about twelve, but he needs to step it up a little. The Miz then says John Cena looks about twelve, and he's carrying a custom belt. JBL responds by saying that is also damn disrespectful, and both of them will one day feel the wrath of the Wrestling Gods. The Miz then goes "Hey, Blackjack. You're a Wrestling God aren't you? Why don't you face me?".
Mizanin then rolls into the ring, and then encourages JBL to get in. JBL doesn't and The Miz declares himself the winner via forfeit. "6-0!" he shouts as he jumps all over the ring and on the turnbuckles. JBL tells The Miz he is wasting these fans' time, and he is wasting SmackDown!'s time, and most importantly he is wasting JBL's time. The Miz then asks JBL what he plans to do about it. Layfield has finally had enough, and enters the ring. The Miz didn't expect this, and runs for the hills with his replica World Title.
The next week, The Miz faces Paul London or Brian Kendrick. It doesn't matter which one. The Miz again has his "Real World Championship" with him, and JBL gets on the mic and starts a "Go, Paul, Go!" or "Go, Brian, Go!" chant, depending on who is going to be wrestling. The Miz gets on the microphone, and says that he wants to make Paul/Brian a deal. Because he is impressed with their ring skills, which are mediocre, but have potential, The Miz will put his Real World Championship on the line against London/Kendrick. But in return, if The Miz wins, he wants to take the place of his opponent as co-WWE Tag Team Champion. Paul London/Brian Kendrick just cuts The Miz off with a forearm and beats the crap out of him. Some trickery allows The Miz to get control, however.
JBL eventually says he's had enough, and he gets out of the booth and gives The Miz a Clothesline from Hell. This gives The Miz his sixth straight victory (seventh if you count his forfeit win against JBL, which The Miz does). JBL stands over Mizanin as the fans either boo or cheer (I think it will mostly be cheers). JBL says that he is officially retired, but he will arrange for The Miz to face someone at No Mercy, that will shut up his fruit-booty.
Theodore Long comes out, and says that JBL won't. In fact, because he violated the order Long placed on him, restricting him from laying a hand on any SmackDown! Superstar, JBL is now fired! His replacement from this point on, at least until a replacement can be found...The Miz! JBL has a fit in the ring.
Josh Mathews replaces Michael Cole for the night, and basically plays a bitter heel role, where he claims that for some reason he isn't good enough for colour commentary. He also gets behind King Booker in the main event (the two ran an angle where Booker T stood up for Mathews once, didn't they?).
JBL doesn't disappear, though. Actually he does, but his voice is heard on WWE Heat, where he does commentary with Todd Grisham. JBL basically complains that he had to take a second rate commentary job because of The Miz.
The Miz continues to do commentary, and even advertises Heat, where JBL is now resident colour man.
At No Mercy, The Miz does colour commentary, but eventually JBL runs out and attacks The Miz! Layfield gets on the mic and says he can't stand it! He can't stand listening to The Miz in such an important position. He says that if Theodore Long wants to stop Layfield be his guest, but Long apparently likes to listen to these fans. Listen to them, Teddy! They hate this piece of trash.
Theodore Long comes out, and says that JBL will return to SmackDown! as colour commentator, but he is not to touch The Miz again.
The next night on SmackDown!, The Miz is wrestling some babyface. I'm thinking Jimmy Wang Yang. Make it for the WWE Cruiserweight Championship (Yang defeats Gregory Helms in the near-future). JBL once again leaves the announce table, gets into the ring, and knocks Jimmy Wang Yang down with a Clothesline from Hell. The winner of the match, as a result of a disqualification, Jimmy Wang Yang. JBL then gets on the mic and tells The Miz he is now 7-1, so now he's lost, he can go bye-byes. The Miz gets on the mic and goes "You can't touch me right?", to which Layfield responds "I didn't touch you, I touched that faux-cowboy, Jimmy Wang", to which The Miz responds "So you technically can't defend yourself", and he flies at JBL and begins to beat the crap out of him.
Theodore Long makes his entrance and tells The Miz to relent, or else he will be suspended Theodore Long says that what went on here tonight by JBL was unacceptable, and as punishment, he will step into the ring one more time. His opponent will be...The Miz. That match will take place at Survivor Series. The Miz says he will even defend his Real World Championship in the match.
Basically The Miz settles into a face role in coming weeks. He loses to King Booker in a "Champion vs. Champion Match", when JBL shoves him off the top rope, and King Booker hits the Scissors Kick. I don't know if the fans will warm up to The Miz, but this is basically to lay the foundations of a John Cena satire. The Miz plays the babyface role, but gets booed all the same.
JBL uses ring rust as an excuse to make their match at Survivor Series a Survivor Series Elimination Match. The Miz says he will have no problem finding Mizfists to join his cause. JBL gets his co-secretaries of defence, The Basham Brothers back for the show. JBL still needs another member of his "Cabinet of Causing Miz Mizery", so he offers an extremely large paycheck to Montell Vontavious Porter. So "Team Cabinet" is set: JBL, MVP, Doug Basham and Danny Basham. It comes to the PPV, and The Miz hasn't got a single Superstar to join him. No one wants anything to do with The Miz. This may get him "Awww"s with the girls and kids in the crowd. Basically The Miz's obnoxiousness finally catches up to him.
The Miz lucks out, though. He comes to Survivor Series with something resembling a team. Mike Mizanin has Ryan Reeves, Daniel Rodimer and Nick Mitchell with him! Team Tough Enough 4 makes their way out, and we get underway. Danny Basham is the first to go, when ge goes suicidal, and takes Rodimer down with some chair shots, which allows his brother to go to work on the giant Rodimer. Daniel makes the tag to Silverback, who cleans house. Reeves finds himself rolled up by Doug Basham, feet on the ropes, and hands on the tights eliminate him. Michael Cole and Josh Mathews chalk it up to the veteran abilities of Doug. Basham soon finds himself at the mercy of Nick Mitchell (who is still technically "Mitch" of The Spirit Squad), and Mitch manages to out-cheat Doug to an elimination. MVP gets in, and slaps Mitch around, before hitting him with his finishing move. Daniel Rodimer gets in, and JBL gets tagged in by MVP, who wants nothing to do with Rodimer. JBL tries to hit the Clothesline from Hell on Rodimer...but they have no effect! JBL shits himself as The Miz flies off with the top rope with a move, hits The Mizard of Oz on JBL, and pins, 1-2-3! MVP opts not to get back in the ring, and Rodimer and Miz win the match for their team via countout!
Daniel Rodimer and Ryan Reeves go back to training, but there is some kind of feature on WWE.com that keeps track of them. Mitch can kind of turn face on RAW. Doug Basham and Danny Basham go back to playing their roles in ECW. JBL admits that The Miz is good, he pinned him at Survivor Series, and he can admit that. The Miz and JBL then become best friends. Mizanin even begins to call JBL "The Jiz" which goes right over JBL's head. We begin to see The Miz act like JBL in ways. Mainly in wrestling style. He goes back to working a cowardly heel style. He's just not as flippy anymore, and tends to hold onto the ropes for protection, etc.
In the Royal Rumble, he hides under the ring for most of it, and comes out right at the end, where he is eliminated. Basically he continues to play a heel role after feuding with JBL. That feud simply lets The Miz have his legs as babyface, and it allows Josh Mathews some commentary dates. On shows where The Miz isn't scheduled to wrestle, he joins JBL out on commentary.
Just make him into a huge ass.
