When Bayley refused to answer his and the Shield guy's questions about why she'd stabbed her 'Bayley Buddies' in the heart and turned her back on the fans, The Miz went rogue and started blasting Brock Lesnar instead.

He said, "A champion that doesn't talk. Who are you? Brock Lesnar?". Then, he compared Sasha Banks to Paul Heyman. That was a clever use of a major WWE act from Miz. He managed to shine the spotlight of bigger stars onto Bayley and relate their dynamic to what's happening with her and Banks.
