3 Ups And 6 Downs From Last Night's WWE Smackdown (Dec 6)
2. Trying Your Patience
At the top of the hour, it was time for MizTV, with special guest star Dean Ambrose. The show did not disappoint. Both The Miz and Dean Ambrose were coming off big matches at TLC, but Miz was still riding a wave of joy after a huge win, and he couldn't help but rub some salt in Ambrose's wounds.
Miz brought up how James Ellsworth backstabbed Ambrose, costing him the WWE World Title, then lamented the fact that Ambrose attacked his former friend earlier in the show - after all, that robbed the fans of getting to see Ellsworth tear Ambrose limb from limb in the main event. Miz wasn't done, though. He had a special gift for Ambrose - the first-ever Miz Participation Award. He gave the framed certificate (complete with a blue ribbon on it that said "You Tried") to Ambrose as the fans chanted "You deserve it!"
Ambrose advanced on Miz, ready to fight, but Daniel Bryan came out to book a match between the two men... in the main event... for the Intercontinental Title. The Miz completely flipped out, and he was brilliant at it - just like he was throughout the entire segment. Hopefully he works the same magic with Ambrose that he did with Dolph Ziggler.
