Either way, we have different definition on how good Miz is and what is a successful run. I clearly think he is better than you think due to different taste.
Yeah, that's the one. The ratings mattered more then than they do now. I don't even think they went down that much -- I think he just nullified the usual Mania boom period, but it was just a lifeless time for them. I liked the video they did before the Mania match and there was one week where Miz looked super-serious, but for the most part he was still goofy Miz, because that's what he does well.

Even if you love The Miz, can you really claim that he is a better act than half-a-dozen or so people on SmackDown? He doesn't have the presence of a Cena, Orton, Styles or even Wyatt. Ziggler's been booked to shit, but even he would have more "cred" as a champion. I just don't buy it. I do buy him as a smug piece of shit mid-carder though. But we'll have to agree to disagree.
