10 WWE Wrestlers In Danger Of Missing Out On WrestleMania 41
9. The Miz
WrestleMania without The Miz is like WrestleMania without pyro! OK, that's a bit over the top, but the sharp suited veteran has been part of WWE's furniture for decades at this point. It honestly sucks to think of anybody with that tenure missing out on the biggest shows of the calendar year, but Miz would probably palm it off in the media as a good thing and Triple H focusing on the future as he should.
Miz vs. Uncle Howdy or booking him as part of some crummy multi-man tag vs. The Sicks is the only viable solution heading into the spring, and that doesn't sound 'Mania worthy. Not to labour the point, but Miz was only moved over to SmackDown in the Transfer Window so he could put others over and add some legacy star power to the brand's midcard.
He won't be bothering the belts or doing anything meaningful.
The overwhelming positive here is that Miz is a Teflon trooper in 2025. He could lose every match from here until the end of the year and still get some sort of reaction from live crowds. Also, and this is important during a time of the year when mainstream media actually pays some attention to wrestling, Hunter will know how valuable Miz is on the hype train.
He can be trusted to put across how huge the Las Vegas special is without even really being tangibly involved on either night. The Miz is a true pro, but being a great ambassador doesn't guarantee a spot on the card.
