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.

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.

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.

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

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.
Why are you so persistent in calling him Awsome?

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.
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.

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.

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.

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.

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

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.
