No pairing of WWE NXT Pros and Rookies has garnered more scrutiny than Daniel Bryan and his allocated mentor, The Miz. In a blog post on the WWE Universe website, the United States Champion responds to those online saying he's not fit to teach a wrestler of Bryan's caliber.

In its entirety, here is what The Miz wrote:

Mentoring Daniel Bryan on WWE NXT

There has been a lot of controversy this week about me mentoring Daniel Bryan on WWE's new show, WWE NXT.

I've read a lot of interviews, blogs, ect. about the matter and they all seem to be asking the same thing. "Why is The Miz mentoring Daniel Bryan when Daniel Bryan has wrestled all over the world for 10 years plus?"

It's come to my knowledge that some members of the WWE Universe think they know everything about WWE and what it takes to be a WWE Superstar. They think that if a guy does well in the independent minor leagues, then all of a sudden he should be in the WWE.

They think that if a guy can main event in front of a hundred people at a bingo hall, then he's ready to main event at WrestleMania. Just because fans on the Internet say you’re ready doesn't mean you really are.

Just because a fat guy with no teeth who sits in the front row, buys your T-shirt and says you're the king of wrestling, doesn't mean you really are.

What the WWE Universe doesn't understand is there is so much more then I can describe in a single blog involved in being successful in the WWE.

My job is to make Daniel Bryan a star in the WWE, because let's face it, if you look at a picture of him right now, do you think STAR?

No, Daniel Bryan looks like my accountant ... ordinary and bland.

Maybe if he had The Miz's charisma and look, he would have been in the WWE by now. Don't hate on me because it didn't take me a decade to get a WWE contract and go down in WWE history to be the first Superstar to win the United States Title and Unified Tag Team Titles.

Don't get me wrong, Daniel Bryan has all the talent in the world, but every wrestler has weaknesses. And that's what my job is, to find his weakness and make him the biggest star possible.

I just hope Daniel Bryan doesn't believe himself what these ignorant members of the WWE Universe believe about him, or WWE NXT is going to be a nightmare for him.

MIZ

He has a point. In WWE, you need to at least have charisma and at least be decent on the stick. From what I've seen of Danielson, he's lacking in a similar way that Benoit did.

Could he get over with the WWE audience on his in-ring work? Sure. Anyone could with the right push. But that's not how WWE works, so you need to work within the system.

i know that, that's why i was quite happy when i thought it was going to be HBK, the resulting creation would have been epic.

As with most, my initial reaction was "What the hell could Bryan learn from The Miz?" But, after thinking about it (and reading his blog), Miz could actually teach him a lot in the charisma department. Plus, Bryan could help Miz better his in-ring stuff (though he has been improving week to week, I think).

I am definitely looking forward to it

So call me crazy...but I wouldn't be totally surprised if NXT got a small match at WM, just for the sake of promoting the show. Especially since there is gonna be a MITB PPV this year, which I guess means no more MITB at WM.

WrestlingObserver:

William Regal is set to replace MVP as the mentor for Skip Sheffield on WWE NXT. With MVP and Skip set as faces, and Regal being a heel, it is not currently known if another pairing will change alignment.

Just wondering:

It's being reported that Skip Sheffield was supposed to be in a face pairing with MVP, but now he's going to be mentored by Regal. I wonder if Sheffield/Regal and Miz/Bryan are going to be two face/heel pairings.

William Regal and Skip Sheffield will be a comedy pairing, I believe. Regal will be all serious and British, and Sheffield will be all "Yip, yip, yip, howdy partner!" It's likely that Regal will be used to put Sheffield over; but I could also see them being put together as a face tag team, or Sheffield even becoming the happy-go-lucky guy who gets corrupted and turned into Regal's evil protoge. Almost like how the good Georgia boy is getting fed the lines he wants to hear by Ric Flair in TNA.

All these partnerships are somewhat interesting to me. Matt Hardy & Justin Gabriel is probably going to be the least dramatic one. I could even see the two as a proper tag team when Gabriel "graduates." It's not like they have anything better for Hardy.

Darren Young could either become a huge face or an interesting mid-card heel working with CM Punk. Young could refuse Punk's Straight-Edge Society, and become a instant mega-face; or he could join (perhaps after losing a match to Punk, so they can give him a try as a face), and he could become Luke Gallows' permanent tag team partner, or something (Punk & Gallows just seem wrong to me).

Wade Barrett is one that I am surprised I am looking forward to so much. He seems like a replacement for the injured Brett DiBiase; but the idea of him teaming with Chris Jericho is so intriguing. At first I thought he was in a similar position to Darren Young; but this is another Rookie/Pro pairing I see remaining pretty consistent. Barrett's WWE profile makes him sound obsessed with money, and makes him sound heelish as all fuck. Barrett as the new Lance Cade? Jericho possibly becoming World Heavyweight Champion soon will also put a lot of spotlight on "The Second Best in the World at What He Does."

I hope Daniel Bryan appears with Show-Miz when they traverse the brands. Bryan as the third member of the little entourage they've got going could be really cool. I also hope they get Maryse in there.

David Otunga seems set-up to start off almost as a heelish character, and then warm up to R-Truth's way of life and become a fun-loving face. The WWE wants some African-American stars, and Otunga could be one. But I could also see him resisting R-Truth and ending up feuding with him.

Michael Tarver is another guy that could either end up a heel, and possibly teaming with Carlito (and being used as his own personal heavy-hitter), or knocking him out and turning face.

Heath Slater, again, could turn on Christian or end up joining with him. If he hangs out with Edge & Christian if they reunite, he could get pretty damn over.

I hope they have the Rookies appear (at least occasionally) on the brand their Pro competes on.
