12 Super Weird Quirks Unique To ONE Wrestler

10. The Miz’s Upside Down WWE Logo

Truthfully, this quirky idea could've happened all the way back when WWF gave way to WWE in 2002 and the 'F-less' logo became the norm. Back then, someone on the roster such as Mark Henry, Matt Hardy or Maven could've flipped the company's branding upside down and started claiming it as their own. They didn't.

The Miz did.

Once he was established, that is. By the time Miz was spinning the WWE logo around to say 'M' instead of 'W', he was already a made man who'd successfully overcome cruel bullying behind the scenes and fan scepticism for his performances in front of the cameras. The Miz turned frowns upside down whilst doing precisely the same with the promotional logo, and it was genius.

He'd turn it when using the old spinner variation of the WWE Title during his first reign as champ, and his Miz TV talk show segment cleverly utilised the WWE brand to great effect. Miz even flipped the logo on select versions of his ring attire too. It became his thing to do that.

Meanwhile, everyone else with the letter 'M' in their names could only look on and wish they'd thought of it. Sorry, Maven. You can have this one for an upcoming YouTube video that'll rake in the views, buddy. Turns out you weren't Tough Enough!

Seriously though, it was inspired marketing from Miz to do such a thing. He had to know he was onto a winner as soon as he flipped WWE on its head. One can envision a certain former owner saying: 'Ha-ha! That's good s***, pal!'.
